for the season. The market is firm
and fairly active for fine butter and
choice fresh eggs, but dull and weak
for cheese. There is a steady demand
for fancy dairy butter. The cheese
market is plainly one for buyers. Re-
ceipts are heavy and sales at the out
side quotations are the exception rath-
er than the rule. Light receipts and O
good steady demand are the sustain
ing influences in eggs.
