New York Produce Market

against trading and market was dull
all day. Receipts were light because

Jersey City on account of the storms,
/ but there was sufficient good butter
to meet the demand. Market closed
/ barely steady without any change in
quotations. Ladies, which firmed up
/ last week after tie Oetjen plant was
closed, remained steady with prob
ability of an advance. Prices:

CHEESE-Trading was light yester-
day and the holders Of summer stock
felt firmer because they see better
prices ahead, so they think There
was little or no demand for export
and jobbers were scarce. Market
closed about steady. Prices follow:
State, whole milk held, specials, 169
1614c; fresh specials 15Ad15hc; col
ored, average fancy. 14% @15c under

EGGS-There were a few more good
eggs among current receipts yester-
day than early last week. Some of
the receivers claim to have advices
of more new laid stock. The current
receipts are not satisfactory, and
yesterday was a bad day for any
trading. Refrigerators were weaker,
with the associated warehouse re-
ports showing over 1900 900 dozen
in excess of last year. Demand for
nearby stock continues good, but
there is not much of this grade.

chickens advancing 1c and fowls 1ac.
There was no change in old ROSTERS,
except a wider range. In addition 70
the 40 cars left on track Saturday, Y
more cars arrived since. The rain
interfered with unloading, which made
the supply under the sheds light.
Trading was only normal, and with
the big supply on track prices are not
likely to be any higher this week.

better, especially if it turns cold
