LOCAL WHOLESALE MARKET.

LOCAL WHOLESALE MARKET.
Butter and egg prices were the
same this morning as they were at
the close of last weeks market. Egg
prices have increased the past two
or three weeks, and dealers doubt
that they will be lower again the ap-
preaching fall.
Easier prices have prevailed in the
poultry market the past few days Re
ceipts have been fairly heavy, with
but light demands.
The vegetable market continues TO
be well supplied. Nearby truckers
are supplying so much produce that
dealers are handling but little from
distant points.
