COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing Prices
AS it is an accepted fact that eggs are to be
no lower this season, large quantities are
going into cold storage, and hence supply is
light Consumption has also declined and
markets are barely steady. Ohio creamery
butter is not coming to the front in good
shape and markets are dull. The poultry
supply is light and markets are steady.
Bananas and pineapples are in abundant
supply, and drift Of prices is toward lower
level. The quality Of strawberries coming
in of late has been low. Little choice stock
has been offered for the past week Home
raised vegetables are coming in freely, and
markets are weak and slow. Southern stuff
is even slower.
