curste quotations will be given on which
Sealers can safely base their transactlonS
The flour market is generally quiet
and easy. Fresh meats are slightly
irmer, while poultry quotations show
little change. Both the supply and
the consignments of cheese are light
and under a steady, fair demand, pric-
es are we'll maintained. Receipts OF
eggs continue heavy, but the demand
Is active and prices hold up well. A
somewhat weaker feeling is apparent
in butter in the market The drop is
largely in sympathy with outside mar
kets, for local receipts have not in
creased materially and the demand is
no quieter than it has been. Dairy
butter is in moderate supply, and the
best grades are in steady demand.
