Butter, Cheese and Eggs

Business in Dairy Eroduce assumed more sat
lsfactory proportions yesterday, trading in all
three descriptions being brisk. despite the con-
tinued inclemeDcy of the weather Receipts of
Butter were light, owing to the crippled condition
lngly very firm, there being barely enough stock
no disposition to advance prices, however. the
majority of receivers being of the opinion that
such action would be unwise in view of the fact
that large lines of delayed stock likely to
pc thrown on the market at any time Store
Butter was very scarce and what little stock
was onerlng found prompt sale at 2Sc per pound
and even higher for good pack.
There are more than enough Eggs coming in
over the railway routes remaining open to supply
the market and this department is rather easy
than otherwise Sorting has about ceased for
the time being.
Cheese was in light receipt and firm. with new
fancy mats quoted 1ac higher on a sale at Ice.
Receipts 40 700 lbs Butter, IS 200 lbs
Cheese and 2542 cases Eggs
