Reviewing the Latest Eastern Markets 
EGG PRICES DROP WITH HEAVY 
RECEIPTS 
N the last week eggs in the New York 
market dropped to the lowest price 
they have reached in five months. The 
break came at about the same time this 
year as last, owing to mild weather and 
heavy receipts. The weekly receipts at 
New York jumped to 34,689 cases last 
week, as compared with 28,174 in the 
week previous. Last week’s receipts 
were 11,P00 cases in excess of the corre¬ 
sponding week last year. 
Nearby white eggs, of which supply 
has increased considerably, were af¬ 
fected by the slump, and declined along 
with Pacific Coast • whites and other 
eggs. 
The market was so weak that dealers 
Trading in cheese continues quiet, 
but the market has developed a firmer 
tone since the first of the year. Up- 
State New York cheese is not coming 
to this market for sale at present, and 
there have, been very small receipts of 
Wisconsin cheese. The immediate pros¬ 
pect is for a stror\g market. The whole¬ 
sale prices on January 18 showed very 
little change from the week previous. 
State whole milk, average run, 27% @

Stronger Market for Barreled Apples 
The cold weather of last week seemed 
to bring a more active demand for bar¬ 
reled apples. Under lighter receipts the

were compelled to hold many express 
shipments on their floors for a week or 
more in order to avoid sacrificing them 
at low prices. The greater part of the 
receipts from nearby sections are still 
of mixed sizes and neglected by the 
most particular trade. The bottom 
prices of last week were reached on 
January 16 and 17, when nearby hen¬ 
nery extra firsts were quoted at 45 to 
47c. On January 18 the market be¬ 
came firmer and prices recovered 2c 
per doz. 
The market for storage eggs was af¬ 
fected by the decline in fresh stock. 
Very few storage eggs were fine enough 
to sell at a price higher than 32c per 
doz. There are about 10,000 cases on 
hand in cold storage in New York at 
the present time in excess of the amount 
on hand last year. Most of the storage 
eggs are offered at 28 to 31c. 
A comparison of prices on nearby 
eggs on January 18, 1923, with the 
same date last year shows about Ic per 
doz. higher quotations this year than 
last on hennery whites, and about the 
same price on gathered whites and 
pullets. 
Butter Market Weakens Again 
After the advance and firmer market 
reported here last week, butter prices 
started downward again. Creamery 
prices on January 18 were 2c lower 
than a week before. Buyers held off 
on this declining market. Prices are 
still 15c higher than last year, which 
probabty causes a decreased consurnp- 
tion. There is quite an accumulation 
of fresh butter in the market. A steam¬ 
er arrived from Denmark with 3,100 
casks of Danish dreamery and 1,100 
boxes of unsalted came in from Argen¬ 
tine. The Danish butter sold at 51 to 
52c, duty paid. Storage stocks of 
creamery butter have been consider¬ 
ably reduced, and the trade has grad¬ 
ually shifted to fresh. The market has 
been overstocked with unsalted cream¬ 
ery, and there is an accumulation of 
receipts in the mai^ket. 
market became stronger and prices on 
January 18 were as follows: 
Variety Beet Fancy Ordinary 
Greenings. $4.60@4.75 $5 $4 @4.25 
Baldwin.. 4.25@4.60 $4.75@5 4 
Hubbard-

King. 4 @4.60 4.75@5 3.50@3.75 
McIntosh.. 8 @8.50 9 @9.50 7 @7.50 
In Rochester section demand is re¬ 
ported moderate and market steady, 
with following prices on bbls., A, 2% 
in.: Greenings, best, $4.25 @4.50; 
Baldwins, $4.25 @ 4.60; Wagoners, 
$4.25; Spitzenburgs, ordinary condi¬ 
tion, $4. 
Potato Market Steadier 
There was what is called a “better 
feeling” in the potato market last week. 
This means that buyers are more ac¬ 
tive and ready to buy and prices are 
firmer. The railroad yards where po¬ 
tatoes are received were beginning to 
clean up some of the accumulation and 
the prospect is for a better market, with 
only slight advances in price, if any. 
A car shortage in Maine is cutting 
down receipts from that State. Many 
shipments received last week were fro¬ 
zen and badly damaged. 
States, in 150-lb. sacks, sold^at $2 @‘ 
2.10; bulk, per 180 lbs.. No.‘l round 
white mostly at $2.00 to 2.50. Farmers 
up-State are receiving 40 to 46c per 
bu., few 50c per bu. The market on 
Long Islands is steady at 90c per bu. 
to farmers. 
Cabbage Meets Steady Market 
Danish variety cabbage continues to 
sell at $25 per ton, with a steady de¬ 
mand and light supplies. At this time 
last year it was quoted at $48 to $60 
per ton. Carlot shipments of cabbage 
for the entire country to January 13 
were 36,772 cars, compared with 28,339 
the same date last year, and a total for 
all of last season of only 31,000 cars. 
It would seem advisable for those 
who still have cabbage on hand to 
market it at present prices before 
shipments of new Southern cabbage 
become heavy. Last year the ship¬ 
ments of new cabbage up to the mid¬ 
dle of January were nearly 3 times 
what they have been so far this 
season. 
Heavy Fowls in Demand 
Although receipts of fresh-killed 
poultry continue liberal, there is no 
surplus of the desirable grades of 
dressed fowls. The bulk of the receipts 
are chickens which are hard meated 
and staggy, and bring irregular prices. 
Dry-picked fowls, 6 lbs. and over, in 
bbls. brought 31 @ 32c per lb.; 4 lbs. 
weight, 30c; roasting chickens, dry 
picked, 4 to 6 lbs. weight and over, 
brought 34 @ 36c per lb; 3% lbs. and 
under, 24 @ 30c, Capons are in fair 
demand, selling at 33 @ 40c per lb, for 
5 to 8 lbs. weight. Young guinea hens, 
4 to 5 lbs. weight, sell at $1.76 per pair; 
3 to 4 lbs., $1.50; old guinea fowls, 
75 @ 90c. 
Country Dressed Calves Find Firm 
Market 
Receipts of country-dressed calves at 
New York were very light last week, 
and although the demand was not 
heavy, the market continued firm. 
Fresh, choice calves brought 20 to 21c 
per lb.; prime, 18 @ 19c; good, 16 @ 
17c; poorer sorts, 9 @ 16c. Country- 
dressed pigs were not in demand; 
white-skinned roasting, 10 to 19 lbs., 
weight, brought 25 @ 30c per lb.; 16 
to 40 lbs., 16 @ 16c; heavier weights 
down as low as 8c. Only fancy hot¬ 
house lambs are in good demand at 
12 @ 14c; other dressed lambs, prime, 
per cwt., bring $16.26 @ 16.60; common 
to good, $11.75 @ 15. 
Hay Market Continues Weak 
At time of writing this report, the 
New York hay market was weak, and 
prices very irregular, with slow trad¬ 
ing and only very best qualities getting 
outside quotations. 
Alfalfa, per ton, second cutting. No. 
1, $26 @27; No. 2, $24 @ 25. U. S. 
heavy clover, mixed (not more than 
65 per cent clover). No. 1, $19 @ 20. 
Feed Market Dull 
There was very little change last 
week in the Buffalo feed market. Cot¬ 
tonseed meal, 36 per cent, advanced $1 
per ton. Both standard spring bran 
and hard winter bran showed slight 
advances, while standard spring mid¬ 
dlings declined a little. Prices on carlots 
f. 0 . b. Buffalo in 100-lb. sacks, January 
17, were: Gluten feed, $46.25 @ 47; cot- 
tonsed meal, 36 per cent, $48 @ 48.50; 
cottonsed meal, 43 per cent, $54.26 @ 
54.75; oil meal, 33 to 34 per cent, local 
billed, $54.50 @55; dried brewers’ 
grains (nominal), $49 @ 50; standard 
spring bran, $32 @ 32.25; hard winter 
bran, $32.50 (@ 32.75; standard spring 
middlings, $32.75@33; choice flour 
middlings, $34.75 @ 35.25; white hom¬ 
iny, $35.80 @ 36.30. Per bushel. No. 2 
yellow corn, new, 83%c; No. 3, 82c; No. 
2 white oats, new, 51%c; No. 3, 49%c. 
The following were the cash grain
