$4.25  per  bag.  The  potato  market  is 
somewhat  a  weather  affair.  Cold  and 
snow  has  interfered  with  shipment,  and 
the  supply  here  is  considerably  lighter. 
The  usual  "Winter  experience  is  a  series 
of  ups  and  downs  according  to  storms  and 
cold  snaps.  (Quotations  are  up  to  $5-50 
per  2-bu.  bag.  or  about  $1.05  per  bu.  ;u

seems  to  be  expected  for  the  present.

to  $19;  clover  mixed,  $15  to  $1(1.

Ilogs  and  other  live  stock  have  been  in 
good  demand  at,  Brighton  and  Watertown 
lately,  and  sellers  have  found  it  easy  to 
get  their  price,  although  there  lias  been 
no  general  advance.  Receipts  have  been 
light  most  of  the  time  on  account  of 
weather  conditions  in  the  shipping  sec¬ 
tions.  Good  hogs  are  up  to  1 0 Vi e<  Aver¬

POULTRY  TRADE  FAIRLY  GOOD. 
While  demand  has  been  only  moderate, 
the  supplies  have  been  moved  along  toler¬ 
ably  well,  and  many  dealers  report  sat¬ 
isfaction  with  the  tone  and  volume  of  the 
holiday  markets.  Weather  has  been 
mostly  seasonable.  8a id  8.  D.  Burr  & 
Co.  :  “Brices  have  held  about  as  fore¬ 
cast  last  week.  Northern  turkeys  are

to  20c;  Eastern  ducks  21  to  23c  anl 
geese  18  to  22c.”  Live  poultry  has  been

fowls,  chickens  or  ducks  have  sold  at  20o. 
Demand  has  been  active  and  supplies 
well  cleaned  up. 
MEATS  IN  SLOW  DEMAND.

and  country-dressed  bogs  firm  at  15%c

BUTTER  MARKET  HAS  FIRMER  TONE. 
Trade  in  dairy  products  is  usually  light 
at  the  end  of  the  year,  but  supplies  also 
seem  light,  and  prices  have  been  fully 
sustained,  although  the  trade  quiets  down 
whenever  the  price  attempts  to  advance. 
The  quotation  on  Northern  extras  is  39c, 
but  most  sales  are  firsts  at  37  to  38c. 
Storage  butter  is  36  to  38c.  Print  and 
box  butter  is  selling  about  as  fast  as  re¬ 
ceived  at  one  cent  above  corresponding 
tub  grades.  Said  C.  M.  Stone  &  Co. : 
“Extras  are  tip  one  cent,  but  many  feel 
the  advance  was  unwarranted.  Trade  is 
exceedingly  quiet.  Tattle  of  the  butter 
except  that  from  Winter  dairy  sections, 
grades  as  extra.  There  is  some  agitation 
to  abolish  the  quotation  on  extras.” 
EGGS  FAIRLY  STEADY. 
Severe  weather  has  tended  to  check 
production  Tind  shipment.  Prices  have 
tended  to  recover  from  the  lowest,  yet  the 
natural  trend  is  downward  at  this  season, 
aside  from  storms  and  cold  snips.  Hen¬ 
nery  eggs  are  57c  and  western  prime 
firsts  48  to  50c.  Said  a  prominent 
dealer:  “Storage  eggs  are  hard  to  move, 
the  market  being  unsettled  and  (Deidedly 
in  buyers'  favor.  The  trend  should  be 
downward  from  now  on.  At  present  rate 
the  holdings  in  Chicago  will  be  about 
200.000  cases  the  first  of  the  year,  which 
indicates  a  shortage  of  one-half-  There 
is  no  over-supply  and  foreign  market  will 
take  them  when  they  cannot  buy  cheaper 
H  AY  AND  GRAIN. 
The  hay  market  shows  the  usual  end 
of  the  year  dullness,  and  sales  are  hard 
to  make.  Buyers  seem  to  he  waiting  for 
lower  prices.  The  higher  charges  now  in
