New York Produce Market
Yesterday.

BUTTER-Trading was good, with
a larger proportion of full grass stock.
This shortened the range on the high
est grades and the market closed
firm, without accumulation. Much of
the full grass butter is being stored,
and the bakers are taking the fresh
packing stock. This keeps the fresh
undergrades in good demand. Outside
of extras, there was no change in
quotations. Prices follow: Cream
cry. extras, 26@266c; flrsts, 24hQ

No. 2, 17@171ac; No. 8, 15@161sc.
CHEESE-With well-cleaned-up
market at the close, without change
in quotations, receivers feel firm for
the balance of the week, and expect
prices to be trifle higher, as quality
will be better next week. Jobbers are
demanding full-grass cheese, and
there is not an abundance in the
market. Warm weather is being felt
in the receipts, making some of them
not SO desirable. Skins continue

13Ac; undergrades, 11@13c; State
skins, fresh, specials, 1011@11hc;
good to choice, 9GD10c; full skins, de-

EGGS.-There was some speculation
in storage stock yesterday and the
price was advanced Nc. Aside from
that there were no changes from the
day before The demand from the
| jobbers is for high grade stock and

receipts will grade. Duck eggs are
holding on remarkably long this sea-
son. Prices follow: Fresh gathered,

DRESSED POULTRY-There was
| a general decline in nearly all lines
of dressed stock yesterday. The hot
weather had much to do with this
/ condition. Much of the stock shipped
under ice was short of ice on arrival
and left the stock in undesirable con-
| dition. The market was really de-
| moralized Fancy and s ID. fowls
| in perfect order brought tic, and that
was lower than ordinary stock the
! day before. Old roosters are lower
and ducks are unchanged, In frozen
