Products, Prices and Trade 
Current prices and news at New York and 
other places noted. 
NEW YOKK, JULY 19, 1917. 
BUTTER. 
The market Is decidedly easier with prices 
one-half to one cent lower on the lK*tter Rrades 
of lx>th dairy and creamery. Supplies are not 
unduly larKe, but the demand Is only moderate, 
as many people are away from the city at pres¬ 
ent. Out of town trade Is fairly active, and 
some speculative buying Is noted, though con¬ 
siderable of the receipts are not of (Teslrablo 
quality for holding.

WOOL. 
Business during the week has been only mod¬ 
erate in volume, though the tone of the market 
In fairly active in the East. The Government’s 
attitud'e toward wool manufacture is apparently 
to let Government work interfere as little as 
possible with private business. Recent sales at 
Boston have been: New York and Michigan 
fine unwashed, 50 to 57 unwashed Delaine, 71 to 
72; tliree-eighths blood', 73 to 74. Ohio and 
Pennsylvania half blood combing, 71 to 72; 
three-eighths blood, 74 to 75. Virginia and 
Kentucky three-eighths blood, 70 to 77. Texas 
line scoured, .$1.05 to $1.75. Territory half 
blood combing, $1.45 to $1.50. 
FRESH FRUITS. 
Strawberries are practically out of the mar¬ 
ket excei)t scattering shipments from Northern 
sections which sell liigh when in good condi¬ 
tion. Georgia peaches are abundant, bringing 
upward's of $2.25 per crate for best EII)erta. 
Clierries, blackberries and rasi)berries show vt'ry 
irregular quality owing to the recent rains and 
muggy weather. New apples are slightly higher 
as <iuality is Improving. Large grc<‘n goose¬ 
berries in light supply, going around 12 cents a 
quart. Muskmelons as usual show a great va¬ 
riation in quality and price. Some from West¬ 
ern sections, uninjured by blight, wholesale as 
high as $2.50 per bushel, wtiile others go at 40 
or .50 cent.s.

VEGETABLES. 
I’otatoes continue on about the same level as 
last reported. Occasional fancy lots bring more 
and some of the medium and lower grades go 
at $2 to $2.50 a barrel. Cucumbers from the 
South In excessive supply, and very low. Sweet 
corn from Jersey arriving in small quantities 
three weeks later than usual. It has been com¬ 
ing freely from the Carolinas for some time, 
UHuall.v packed in standard peach erat<‘S with 
the Oilers removed. Cabbage from nearby is 
identiful and of good quality, so that the lower 
grade Southern is clearing out at cut prices. 
A few tomatoes from nearby are bringing fancy 
prices.
