VEAL PRICES LOWER
ON HEAVY RECEIPTS

Eggs strengthened by selling at IS
cents today. and A slight falling off
in supply, augmented by increased de-
mand, made the market firm at that
price. The variation in the price on
eggs has not exceeded , cents during
the week and the market has been re-
garjed as being established on a nor
NAL basis TOday's advance is thought
to be only temporary.
With heavier receipts of veal calves,
the market closed weaker than at the
beginning of the week
4 nUmbr of spring lambs were re-
ceived and disposed Of at prices rang
ing from - to Il cents.
An advance OF u To- cent has been
recorded on all grades Of cheese This
is the result of light receipts of stock
and the market promises TO be as
strong next week.
