Prices continue very steady all around in the
produce and jobbing markets. Quite amount
OF chopped feed is being shipped in from san
Francisco now on account OF the scarcity and
high price of oats and corn here. 1t looks as
though the limit had been reached in the adj
vance of prices on cured meats, and il may be
that downward tendency will soon be notice
able again, as the high prices for sweet picked
goods is inducing the farmers to get their hogs
into condition Tor the market while prices are
up. The result will probably be rush of hogs
into the great packing houses in very short
time, and then prices will begin going down
The retail trade presented but few features of
interest during the week. The only change in
prices was stifening up il cherries and de-
clue IN California summer fruit, such as pears,
peaches and piums. Retail meat dealers
complaining OF. the number OF new markets
which are opening up, and predict a general de-
moralization OF prices as a result
