| carefully read. In a market Of this chSTaC-
day OF the week. Noting. however. .ae
| general tendency OF trade. sufficiently ac-
curate quotations will be- given on which
0ealers can safely base their transactions
The general tone OF the -four market
is dull and easy. AS a consequence of
the high prices on meats trade in that
market is also dull. Quotations on
vegetables rather higher than normal
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
good steady demand are the sustain
ing influences IN eggs.
