P. Paterson. the weigh- mastrer that day. that about four tons of turkeys. geese. ducks and chickens were disposed of to city buyers from Toronto and Hamil- ton. The prices. compared with our last Week‘s market quotation. show that local buyers have been giving good prices. considering the fluctuating state of the city market during the past few Weeks. The Chronicle last week quoted 18c. for turkeys. 12c. for geese. 120. for ducks. 11c. for chickens. and 8c. for fowl. The prices paid by the city buyers were from 18 to ‘20 for turkeys. U? to 14 for geese and l ducks. 12 to 14 for chickens. and 7 1' to 10 cents for fowl. These prices t were based on quality. and the - lowest price named in each was 1 the price generally paid. Consid- t ering Christmas time. and the ‘ e‘large city demand for fowl of all t kinds. we think our local men made a good showing. it must s be remembered also that the city e buyers had many of their orders ,- booked. knew before hand they 0 disposition they would make ”fl :9 their purchases. and were taking is no chances. a In this respect they differed w from the local buyers. who haVe to depend wholly on the commisâ€" the the 1:2 1d sion merchants. and accept lg prices when the goods reach [â€" city dealers.
