Curate quotations Will be given on which
Nealers can safely base their transactions
The meat market continues to hold
very firm with full supply although
the quality of stock is generally in
ferior; fruits and vegetables are plen-
tiful and of good quality. The butter
market continues very firm, and on
the ton grades there has hnan a SLIGHT
advance. Receipts are very heavy, but
the primary cost of much stock was
above local quotations, and receivers
are storing quite a little instead OF
selling at loss. Cheese holds firm,
but the demand is moderate and sales
are entirely of small lots. There is
good firm market for fresh eggs free
from the effects of the heat.
