MINNEAPOLIS MARKET,

MINNEAPOLIS, May 17.-Fine dairies are
flrmer than any other grade of butter, ow-

from retailers. Extra creameries are quoted
at 1sA@14c, against fiat quotation on

goods have a weedy flavor, which makes
handlers anxious to dispose Of them as quick

keeping qualities. Other grades Of cream
