Sealers can safely base their transactions
The -four and beef markets are rath
er quiet but steady. Demand for poul
try is fairly good at steady prices
while lambs and veal quotations show
firmer tone. There is no change in
the general condition of the market
for dairy products except that eggs are
in somewhat better demand and in,
clined TO work higher. Fine table
butter is firm, and the off grades are
fairly steady. Cheese holds firm in
the lack of large supplies.
