Quotations on the Leading
Products In Demand

Boston, Sept. 11.-Butter has de-
clined under full receipts and light
demand. Some very choice creameries
are selling in a small way at 23c, but
221ac is about the top in a wholesale
way. Northern creamery, 22d221Ac;
western, 2l022c; dairy, 1o1aQ19Ac.
Cheese is very firm, the advance of
the previous week being FULLY main
tanned. York state, 12@121Ac; Yer
mont twins, 11K@12c.

| demand for fine stock, with the market
well cleaned up; low grades are slow,
with considerable accumulation of
stock. Choice nearby, 2Sd30c; east
ern, 2J@2Gc; western, 20G22c.
1t has been dull in the local fruit
and vegetable market. People are
| closing their summer residences and
| are hardly settled yet at home, so that
| there has been very little outlet for
the large quantities of produce that
| have poured into this market. Dealers
complain of an oversupply, and say
they find it hard to keep things cleaned
up, though prices have been reason
| able.
