Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1907-12-28

To make the appended quotations OF value
alike to buyer and seller, the resume of the
market, prefacng the quotations, should be
carefully read. In a market Of this charac-
ter 1t ls impossible to give prices for every eEy
general tendency OF trade, sufficiently ac-
curate quotations will be given on which
0ealers can safely base their trahsaetlonA
The demand in the flour market has
shown improvement in the past few
days. Pork products continue steady
with few exceptions. There is down
ward tendency in beef prices With
very dull market. Apples Gnd other
fruits are also dull. The butter mar
ket is quiet and unchanged. Fine stor-
age butter is firm, and takes a good
part of the current demand for fancy
goods.
The cheese market is steady but not
very active. There is a moderate de-
mand for fancy September twins at
firm prices, but late made goods sell
slowly and at rather attractive figures.
There is steady movement Of fresh
eggs at about the same prices that
have ruled for the past week.
