Increased Activity in the Wheat
Market.
Condition of the Retail Trade Fairly
Good-Advance in Price of Tur-
keys and Chickens.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 18th.


SAN FRANCISCO, July 12th.
Considerable life was infused into the wheat
market this morning and the tone OF the
market generally was better than for few
days past.
The condition of the retail trade generally
is fairly good. with a possible exception OF
dairy produce, which at the moment might
be called dull.
Square butter is plentiful, but roll is little
scarce. Prices show no change.
The fruit market has new features added as
the season progresses. Watermelons have
now come to stay tor a while, as also crao
apples. Cherries are becoming scarcer and
will soon be out of market.
Chickens are scarce, and these, with tur-
keys, have advanced in price. Old ducks are
slow of sale, but young ducks make better
showing.
Extra fancy ranch eggs will bring some
what more than the quotation below, say SC,
but they must be well selected, fresh stock.
Fancy dairy rolls, in some cases, bring as
much as creamery squares.
