day Of the week. NOtlng, however, the
general tendency of trade, sufficiently ac-
curate quotations will be given on which
dealers can safely base their transactions.
The provision trade while not of as
large volume as it will be in few
weeks continues to be fairly active,
with prices firmly held. Fruits and
vegetables are now in full supply with
prices about normal except on some
native varieties The hutter market
continues firm, especially on fancy
creamery. Cheese has been quiet, but
firm for several days. The supply of
choice fresh eggs is rather short and
full prices rule.
