COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing Prices
Poultry is no longer scarce, as it has been
for week past, and markets have lost
somewhat of their firmness. Prices of
dressed poultry are reduced, as our quota
tions will disclose. Eggs are still weak and
markets show another decline. 1t does not
often occur that the mid-winter price of
eggs is as low as it is at this time. The sup
ply o."choice Elgin creamery butter is very
light in this market, and stock Is firmly
held. Country butter is drug on the
market and only the best is wanted. Cheese
is firm enough to advance before many
days. In tropical fruit lines we note a
weaker market for oranges and bananas and
steady market for lemous. Florida oranges
have declined soc per box from the highest
point reached last week, and bananas are
off SOC per bunch. There is an improved
demand for potatoes, bur no advance in
prices. Other vegetables are dull and slow.
