Boston  Markets 
LIMITED  SUPPLY  OF  CHOICE  BUTTER. 
Butter  receipts  have  been  less  than  for 
the  corresponding  time  last  year.  The 
supply  of  choice,  fresh  grades  is  decidedly 
limited  and  most  storage  out  of  the  way. 
Quotations  hold  at  the  recent  advance, 
with  30  cents  the  standard  priee  for 
Northern  creamery  in  tubs,  if  extra  qual¬ 
ity.  firsts  from  34  to  35  cents.  New 
York  and  Vermont  dairy  firsts  range 
from  33  to  34  rents. 
The  quotation  for  “dairy"  butter  is 
often  puzzling  to  producers  of  a  fancy 
dairy  product  which  very  likely  sells  at 
the  top  of  the  market.  “The  fact  is," 
said  a  dealer,  “we  do  not  gel  any  choice 
dairy  hutcr  in  the  regular  Boston  mar¬ 
ket.  The  blitter  classed  as  dairy  is  really 
the  less  desirable  lots  picked  up  by  coun¬ 
try  dealers  and  shippers.  Really  choice 
dairy  b liter  would  come  only  by  contract 
and  at  special  price,  and  it.  is  not  bought 
and  sold  in  the  regular  butter  market.”

BUTTER. 
Market  in  very  strong  position,  fancy 
Western  tub  selling  up  to  40  aud  nearby 
bricks  a  cent  higher,  with  jobbing  prices 
of  the  latter  up  to  40  cents.  Fair  to  me¬ 
dium  grades  of  dairy  bring  26  to  32  cents. 
CHEESE. 
Supplies  scarce  and  demand  for  full 
cream  good  at  1 8 }/j  to  19  cents. 
EGGS. 
Business  moderately  active  on  desir¬ 
able  nearby  and  well  candled  Southern. 
Sales  up  to  20  cents  on  nearby  are  noted, 
and  jobbing  business  at  28  to  30.  depend¬ 
ing  on  quality. 
LIVE  POULTRY. 
Receipts  light  and  demand  good  at  IS 
to  19  for  fowls,  up  to  20  for  chickens,  and 
19  for  ducks  and  geese. 
EGG  CONDITIONS. 
Arrivals  are  now  beginning  to  show  in¬ 
crease  and  are  larger  than  for  the  corre¬ 
sponding  week  last  year.  The  decline  in 
price  has  been  unusually  slow,  but  sure, 
and  prices  now  seem  pretty  close  to  the 
level  at  which  they  may  be  expected  to 
touch  bottom  for  the  season.  Storage 
buying  ought  to  begin  very  soon  in  liberal 
amount,  if  dealers  have  not  altogether  lost 
their  courage  because  of  the  losses  of  last 
year.  The  season  is  likely  to  be  short¬ 
ened  and  buying  will  have  to  be  done  rap¬ 
idly.  Choice  hennery  eggs  bring  2(5  cents, 
extra  Eastern  25  cents,  firsts  22  cents  to 
2.3  cents,  seconds  21  cents  to  21  ^  cents. 
An  inquiry  lm«  been  received  about,  incu¬ 
bator  eggs.  These  vary  greatly  in  qual¬ 
ity.  Said  a  veteran  egg  tester:  “We  can 
always  toll  an  egg  that  has  been  in  a  ma¬ 
chine.  The  high  temperature  quickly 
changes  the  appearance  aud  behavior  of 
the  yolk  and  after  a  little  while  the  air 
chamber  grows  larger.  The  shell  also 
loses  its  bloom.  There  is  no  sure  way  to 
tell  a  cold  storage  egg,  but  we  claim  we 
can  always  detect  incubator  eggs.  These, 
if  good  aud  carefully  tested,  are  graded 
ivith  Western  eggs;  usually  number  two 
or.  lower,  most  of  them  at  this  season 
bring  about  15  cents  and  are  sold  to 
bakeries.  Eggs  that  have  been  in  water- 
glass  can  be  told  easily,  even  if  thor¬ 
oughly  cleaned ;  when  we  take  two  or 
three  of  them  in  hand  they  rattle  like 
bones  on  account  of  the  change  in  shell 
caused  by  the  waterglass.  They  grade  as 
number  two  and  are  not  worth  so  much  as 
a  good  egg  from  cold  storage.” 
LIGHT  SUPPLIES  OF  POULTRY. 
Poultry  is  scarce  and  supplies  in  sight 
have  been  disposed  of  easily.  The  mar¬ 
ket  on  Northern  and  Eastern  fowls  is  20 
cents  to  21  cents  if  choice,  and  17  cents 
to  IS  cents  for  hover  grades.  Practically 
no  standard  broilers  are  coming  from 
Eastern  points,  Chickens  arriving  are 
staggy  and  sell  lower  than  fowls  for  the 
most  part.  A  few  squab-size  broilers, 
weighing  about  60  pounds  to  a  ease  of  75 
birds,  sell  at  90  cents  per  pair. 
APPLE  MARKET  DRAGGING. 
The  apple  market,  after  showing  a  lit¬ 
tle  improvement  for  a  Aveek  or  two,  sagged 
back  with  demand  sIoav  and  prices  no 
more  than  holding  their  own.  For  choice 
cold  storage  Baldwins  the  top  price  is  $4, 
hut_a  great  many  good  lots  are  offered  at 
$3.50  or  less.  For  No.  1  fresh  packed 
Baldwins  the  raugs  is  $2  to  $2.50.  Most 
No.  2  sell  around  $2.  Greenings  and 
Spies  sell  about  the  same  as  Baldwins  of 
corresponding  grade.  Ben  Davis  sell  50 
Cents  lower  than  Baldwins.  Russets  sell 
mostly  at  $2.  Cranberries  are  closing  out 
the  season  at  steady  prices,  with  $10  top 
for  large,  dark.  Cape  Cod  stock. 
VEGETABLES. 
Onions  are  selling  sloAvly  and  it  be¬ 
comes  harder  to  get  more  than  $2.75  as 
top  quotation.  Parsnips  are  lower  at 
75c.  to  SI  per  bushel  because  of  the  ar¬ 
rival  of  pit  stored  and  fresh  dug  stock. 
Beets,  carrots  and  turnips  hold  unchanged 
in  price.  Rhubarb  is  in  liberal  supply 
and  slightly  lower,  not  bringing  more 
than  5c.  unless  choice..  A  little  native 
celery  is  still  being  brought  in  at  $3  to 
$3.50  per  dozen.  Hothouse  lettuce  is 
higher  at  75c.  to  $1  per  box.  Mushrooms 
are  35c.  to  40c.  per  pound.  Hothouse 
dandelions  $1.05  per  box.  Hothouse  to¬ 
matoes  are  sti1L50r\  per  pound.  Cabbages 
continue  scarce  on  account  of  the  freight 
embargo,  and  bring  $1.50  per  barrel.  The 
list  of  Southern  vegetables  is  increasing 
and  price  gradually  declining  with  the 
season. 
The  potato  market  may  show  consider¬ 
able  effect  from  the  refusal  of  the  Boston 
and  Maine  to  handle  such  bulky  freight 
for  the  present.  Maine  potatoes  are  still 
arriving  but  they  have  to  be  routed 
around  through  the  New  Haven  but  ar¬ 
rivals  are  rather  light.  A  limited  amount 
of  potatoes  are  coming  from  Maine  cen¬ 
tral  shipping  points,  but,  they  sell  a  lit¬ 
tle  lower  than  choice  or  Aroostook  stock, 
being  rated  smaller  and  less  desirable  as 
a  class.  Quotation  holds  around  $2,50  in 
Boston.  Shippers  from  points  in  central 
Maine  quote  $1.20  per  bushel,  delivered 
at  points  having  Boston  rates  of  freight. 
Southern  potato  growers  are  complaining 
about  the  high  price  of  seed,  and  there  is 
a  tendency  to  substitute  cheaper  Western 
stock.  Aroostook  Cobblers  are  held  at 
$3.00  to  $3.85  per  bag.  but.  unless  the 
stock  moves  more  rapidly  it  is  to  be  feared 
some  of  them  will  have  to  he  sold  as  table 
stock,  for  which  they  would  bring  5  to  7 
cents  less  than  regular  market  stock  on 
account  of  smaller  size."

Staggers 
I  have  a  horse  12  years  okl ;  he  has 
had  four  or  five  spells  as  follows,  in  the 
last  year  aud  a  half.  Tt  always  came  on 
when  driving  him  on  the  road,  but  never 
at.  work  on  the  farm.  Ilia  cars  would 
commence  to  tremble  first  and  be  would  go 
a  little,  sideways,  then  his  head  would 
tremble  and  also  his  shoulders  and  sides. 
I  would  stop  the  team  and  after  standing 
five  minutes  he  would  go  on  again  and 
scorn  to  be  all  right.  T  worked  him  hard 
all  last  Summer  ami  Fall,  and  he  did  not 
have  it.  from  about  April  until  some 
time  in  December,  then  it  only  lasted  for 
about  two  minutes,  but  two  days  ago  he 
had  a  severe  attack.  He  staggered  and 
fell  in  the  snow;  we  held  him  for  about 
10  minutes  and  he  became  quiet.  Can 
.von  tell  me  what  to  do  for  this  horse? 
New  York.  a.  l.  l. 
Such  attacks  of  staggers  or  vertigo 
commonly  are  induced  by  overfeeding  and 
lack  of  exercise.  They  will  not  be  likely 
to  come  on  if  you  always  remember  great¬ 
ly  to  reduce  the  feed  when  there  is  no 
work  for  the  horse  to  do,  aud  at  such 
times  always  make  the  horse  take  abun¬ 
dant  outdoor  exercise  ('very  day.  Never 
let  him  stand  for  a  single  day  idle  in  the 
stable.  He  would  he  less  likely  to  have 
an  attack  if  worked  in  a  breast  collar.

I  would  like  advice  about  shoe-boil  on 
horse.  What  is  the  cause  aud  effect?  Is 
it  likely  to  he  permanent?  A.  a.  d. 
Massachusetts. 
.Shoe-boil  is  due  to  bruising  of  the  point 
of  the  elboAV  upon  the  stall  ffoor,  not  upon 
the  heel  of  the  shoe  as  commonly  be¬ 
lieved.  At  least  we  never  hstve  semi  it 
caused  in  the  latter  way.  The  shoe-boil, 
when  organized  into  a  tumor  mass,  is  por- 
rp a nent  and  should  be  removed  by  dissec¬ 
tion.  If  h  horse  is  kept  tied  lip  and  hot 
fomentations  and  absorbing  liniments  are 
persistently  used,  a  neAvly  formed  shoe- 
boil,  containing  serum  but  no  pus.  often 
disappears.  _  a.  s.  a. 
Leaking  Milk 
Is  there  anything  I  can  do  to  stop  a 
cow  from  leaking  her  milk?  F.  n.  r. 
Kansas. 
Milk  three  times  a  day.  Night  and 
morning  soak  the  teats  in  a  strong  solu¬ 
tion  of  alum  in  cold  water.  If  that  does 
not  suffice  paint  the  tips  of  the  teats  with 
flexible  collodion  after  each  milking,  or 
tie  AVith  wide  tapes,  or  put  on  wide,  weak 
rubber  bands  or  thimbles.  Be  careful  not 
to  shut  off  the  blood  circulation,  a.  s.  a.
