Boston. Jan. 4.-The new year opens
with quiet and steady butter market
The demand for several days has been
very light, and all that seems to be
wanted is little fancy, fresh creamery.
which is in light supply. But receivers
are not urging sales at any concessions
as they expect that trade will improve
later on, and that all the good butter
here will be wanted at about present
rates.
The ruling prices are 20i2 to Fl cents
for choice, fresh creamery, northern and
western. Fancy lots of Vermont and
New Hampshire with new milk flavor
run up to 2l1a cents, but these are hard
to find. and offered in small way. For
most of the butter on the market 20 to
81 cents is a full selling price in large
lots.
The range for choice, cold storage
creamery is 10 to 1914 cents, but there are
some under grades that could bebought
for less. Some holders still ask 20
cents for the finest held butter, and a
small lot of northern fall was sold at
21 cents on Monday. But, as usual at
the beginning of the year, the situation
on all kinds of held butter is somewhat
uncertain, as it's sale will depend chiefly
on the receipts of fresh, and it is hard to
say what a few weeks Will develop.
There has been a moderate jobbing
trade. with no change in prices. The
range for choice, fresh creamery is %

fine stock.

lHNIe mas ndTuly Deen enough demand
Tor cheese to test the market for several
days past, but a strong tone is main
tained, and holders are confident that
full prices will be obtained when trade
starts up. The best northern is held
at IL to 11H cents. and it would be hard
to buy much under 11la cents. The
stock on hand is estimated at 81 900
boxes, but some parties, who have kept
close run of the market, say that there
are no more than 20, 900 in the hands OF
large dealers. Last year the stock was
put down at 10000 boxes. Stocks all
round are estimated smaller than last
year.
Receipts for the year foot up 179, 773
boxes for home trade. and 144,6 boxes
for export, against 223,432 boxes for
home and 2e2,432 boxes for export in
1897. This shows a falling off of 50, S01
boxes in home receipts, and 81 1872 boxes
for export. On this basis there certain
ly should be much smaller stock than
last year.
The egg market is somewhat excited,
owing to the scarcity of desirable fresh
supplies. and prices advanced about 2
cents per dozen. Desirable fresh lots
from southern Indiana, Tennessee or
other places in that vicinity are worth
rs to 30 cents, but very little western
offered are good enough to command
over 26 to ~ cents Fresh eastern sell
at 30 cents, and some fancy lots higher

and active in the speculative branch
Early last week there was a downward
tendency in wheat, which reached It's
