Butter, Cheese and Eggs There is no material change in the Egg situa- tion. The consumption is large and steadily in- creasing, but the same is true of the recelpts, and dealers find it fmpossible to effect clearances from day to day. Thus far dealers haye been unable to dispose of surplus lots, by storing. s most of the Egge coming in are wet, which makes storing a rflk.v proposition. Small quanti- tles are going to the eehouse, but the movement 18 not sufficient to relleve the market to any ex- tent. Recelpts of But are stlll running rather light and the marl rules very firm, with all des cleaning up rapidly from day to day. As the situation is, the market would probably stand an advance, but recelyers are averse to putting rices up, s heavy arrivals are expected at any ime. Adviees from Humboldt say thaf the feed is up and creamery operators expect to resvme shipments to this market before the st of March, Cheese was in moderate supply and firmly beld at_the old gnotations. The only transaction on the Exchange was a sale of 50 cases of selected Bggs at 20c. Recelpts were 33,200 Ibs Butter, 49,100 Ibs Cheese and 1878 cases Eggs.

The poor condition of some of the fruit is another weakening factor. Large lines are coming to hand rein-damaged and decay rapidiy, Which: necessitates quick sales at low prices.
