COUNTRY PRODUCE Jobbing Prices. l.
At Elgin the prices of creamery butter
stand the same this week as last, but mar
kets are reported firm at the old prices.
Receipts of country butter are light, but
demand corresponds Oleo seems to have
the preference over everything in butter
lines under gilt-edged stock. Potatoes are
still in abundant supply. There were little,
if any, short of 100 carloads on track in the
various yards this morning, and the top
price was 40c per bushel in carload lots:
Grapes are only in fair supply, but prices
have found a lower level, as our quotations
will disclose. With none of other fruits,
apples are improving in demand, and quail
ity of offerings also shows improvement of
late. Poultry continues to come in freely,
and markets are rather quiet. Strictly fresh
eggs are in limited supply, and signs are that
prices will advance ut an early day.
