WHEELING, August 10, 1892. I
There is no abatement ia the demand
for fine butter and prices are steady as
quoted: the consumption is always large
during the green corn season. Cheese con
tinUes stiff aud still higher prices are
looked for before the close Of the present
week. Chicago is reported as buying out
the product Of Ohio factories that formerly
came TO this market. The egg market is
overloaded with poor stock the effect Of
which is perceptible on good
stock Notwithstanding the supply
is not large aud, as repeatedly
buyers are willing TO pay stiff prices for
good stock when a guarantee 70 that effect
is given. Potatoes continue in liberal sup
ply and prices are easy. The grapes now
coming into market are in fair condition
and from fair % choice IN variety. The
price is probably slightly higher than last
year. They are sold IN nine-pound baskets
and Gt prices ranging from 25c TO 4Oc, de-
pending upon condition and variety.
