Early cranberrle are always of small

class. The improvement In the local
tiuallty and larger output Is having an
effect upon the Importation of eastern

market showed a slightly weaker 4ld,
but a sale was made of 100 tons for

is practically spot delivery, the market
is urmer.

:'i Chick Market Zs Burdened.
"The chicken market continues bur-
: dened with very heavy supplies and tha
' trade is. unable to move all arrivals ex
cept at rery low prices. Everything in
the chicken line now sells around the
i same prices, the difference between the
various grades being nominal. There is
. "no longer any premium for springs and
. these are selling at tne -same price
hens, the latter Being down another
a pound. Ducks are likewise In heavy
i supply with little movement at tne mo
meat. Turkevs are in fair demand con'
siderlng the general tone of the poultry
I market and. former prices are being
maintained. '? '. ,
Mors Eastern Batter Coming1.
s Supplies of eastern-made butter in the
5 Portland market aro increasing very fast
v because of the wide Tange in prices be
' - tween the two places. While the east-
; em market has of late shown a better
tone and somewhat higher' price, the
f difference between the values here and
', those in Elgin, or other sections makes
the Importation of outside stock very
Jrofi table to local sellers. Then again
oca! make supplies are somewhat ln-
creased and for this reason the market
may be considered fractionally easier
with some prospect of a slight decline
when the rains become general.
Eggs are holding steady with small
arrivals.

extreme top for late arrivals. This
means practically a decline of lOo from
the former high level, the trade being
