After a day ef rest local business re-
summed activity yesterday. and throughout
the day sales were good The market vas
pretty Wen cleaned mp. Butter continues
for advance. II Il insisted. II not very TAR
OF. Eggs are not coming In as the CON-
mission men would like to have them Tho
present scarcity makes the profit very
small. IN fact. at the present time the
wholesale dealers insist that they are not
making anything. There are . great many
Eastern eggs In the market. and the de-
me quality. and % long as the fresh
ranch Is SO scarce many housewives con-
tent themselves with those from the East
ern market.
The great demand for poultry during 4
holiday week could bring about but one
result--a cleanup Of the market For sew
eral days before Thanksgiving turkeys and
ducks and chickens were In great demand.
The price was . fairly good one. Just
now there Is not much poultry in the mar
ket, but the farmers are well stocked and
long before the Christmas holidays there
wiz be plenty offered for sale.
