BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.
From Wednesdays Boston journal.


The butter market has developed an easier
tendency. 1t opened fairly steady on Mon
day, with n portion of last weeks receipts
carried over, but the supplies offering were
not large enough to cause any anxiety. On
Tuesday receipts showed material increase
and as buyers were slow and there were
prospects of further liberal supplies, sellers
concluded to yield little in order to move
their goods. The decline as compared with
last week is about half cent, and as the
quality of the receipts shows some improve
ment, buyers may be willing to operate on
this basis during the remainder of the week.
But receivers on the other hand, will not
allow supplies to accumulate If they can help
it, and buyers will probably hold the adj
vantage.
The top asking price yesterday for the
finest Northern creamery was ~ cents, and
a few sales were made at that rate, but be-
fore the day was closed most receivers were
willing to accept II cents. Therefore, quo
tatlon of II to l7a cents may be given ior me
tubs, with most OF the business at the inside
figure. Boxes were started at Is cents, but
buyers found some supplies at li1s cents, and
this was the range for the day. In giving
these quotations it must be understood they
are for regular wholesale lots.
The cheese situation is attracting more at
tention, on account of the opening of the
country markets and the offerings OF the
new make, but there is no material change in
prices. The old stock is going Off pretty well
at to Q cents, with some fancy lots ut a little
higher rate, but most holders are willing to
sell out at cents. COnsgnments are coming
In from various parties WHO were lOluluS lOl
n rise, and are now anxious to clean up.
This tends to keep prices from advancing.
A few lots of new full cream have been re-
ceived here, and are offered at to sla cents.
Opening prices in the country range from I
to "a cents. Fodder cheese will be very hard
to sell at here at any reasonable price.
In Montreal new cheese is quoted at to si4
cents, with sales in the country districts at
to rs cents. The Liverpool quotation holds
al ~ shillings for white and A shillings for
colored
Eggs haye been in liberal supply the past
few days, and prices have eased off little
The top selling price yesterday for choice
graded Western was II cents, with good
marks at lO1s to l0% ceuts Choice fresh
Eastern ruled at IL cents, with some fancy
lots higher.
Beans have been in more liberal receipt
and prices are barely holding their own
choice mari ow are hard to sell at 81 40 per
bushel in cal loads, and mediums are held al
about same rate. Extra yelows are steady al
81 90, and red kidneys lun up to about 81 30
per bushel.
Potatoes have slightly eased off, under the
influence of liberal receipts, and Eastern
hebrons rule at % to 95 cents per bushel
Western rurals and Green Mountains range
from 50 cents to 81 %. Holders in the country
| have high views.
