THE SPOKANE MARKET.

Inc business and INDUSTRIAL Sltua-
ton is gradually working itself out to
more normal plane. Business is
holding very close to seasonable pro
portions, and, all things considered,
presents far more elements of salts

for pessimism.
Provisions.
Butter-While there has been no
change in the local price of butter
within the week coast advices note a
decline of &c there attributed to the
milk supply being above normal as a
result of fine weather and condensers
making butter because of surplus of
their product.
Eggs-The egg market continues to
hold firm at previous levels and ar
rivals of fresh stocks very few.
Poultry-The market shows a de-
cline of 1c on hens and chickens this
week with an abundance of birds in
sight for the Christmas trade. Tur-
key, which jobbed around zoe at
Thanksgiving, will probably be near
that figure in supplying the demand.
Dressed Meats-The market is rath-
er quiet, the only change noted being
slight advance in beef and pork cuts
with hogs a little weaker.
Fruits and Vegetables.
Apples-There is no special feature
in the local situation although the
market holding at the same figures as
for some time past of 50@75c for
cooking and 75c@$1.25 for fancy.
Other Fruits-Oranges and lemons
both show little weaker this week.
the quotations on the former being
$2.9O@3.25 and the latter $5.50@6 for
fancy and $5@550 for choice. Gran
berries are a little stronger but have
not yet changed in price. Keg grapes
are now quoted at $3.75 and crates al
SLIGO.
Potatoes-The weakness that has
been apparent in the spud market fol
some time has had the effect of broad
ening the quotations from 85c@$1.2;
to 75c@$1.25.
Wheat-That the market is on de
batable ground is the opinion among
unbiased dealers, although many o
