New York Produce Market

BUTTER-Market opened a little
easier on the highest grades, with a
| lower tendency for all other cream
cries. Buyers from Boston are clean
ing up the undergrades fairly well,
and they were firmer. Packing stock
is scarce, and, as process depends en-
tirely upon this grade, 1t, too, is
/ firmer. The advances were on the
lower grades, and were nc generally.

DRESSED POULTRY-Very littl
activity in trade yesterday. Butcher
demanded heavy fowl and they wer
scarce. They were not satisfied witt
the smaller sizes and they wer
weaker Old roostens were firm an
fresh broilers were in better deman'
than at the close the day before
While there was no change in pric
the feeling for heavy fowls and goo
broilers was flrmer. Demand for sprin
ducks was small and trade disap
pointing. In frozen poultry there wa
! a better supply of dry picked roastin
chickens. Buyers are well supple
and found some difficulty in movin
/ the stock. Scalded chickens wer
particularly slow Demand was nc
large for fancy frozen turkeys, bu
