days. Coffees are Q cents per pound
higher than on the first day of November.

range. So far as fruits md vegetables are
concerned. there Is no indication of an
early weakening. Poultry and game are
the only lines In which prices range about
as usual in the latter part of November.
While grain the last day or two has been
firmer in tone on some grades of corn and
