LOCAL WHOLESALE MARKET.

Very few turkeys have reached the
/ local market this fall. 1t is said by
dealers that poultry raisers probably
are holding back their stock for, the
Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday
trade.
There has been a slight demand for
turkeys this week at prevailing
prices, approximately 40 cents a
pound. Dealers are yet unable to
forecast the probable Thanksgiving
holiday prices, but some OF them sug-
on account Of the quantity Of cold
storage stock On hand.
The chicken market was much
easier this morning. the supply being
more than equal to the demand Deal
ers report fair demand for ducks
and keats.
