Few now offerings nro found on tho market, and thcro is vory llttlo change in prices generally. Hay, grain and straw havo taken a decided drop, baled hay being be-ing cheaper by 60 cents. Wheat, bran and shorts havo lost C cents por buehol, and 10 cents 13 knocked oft corn, cracked corn, rolled barley, straight grade flour and high patent flour per hundredweight. Ono box of pomegrnnltes has mado its appearanco at $2 a box, but thero Is very llttlo demand for this fruit in Salt Lake, as lt Is far from being a favorite. Ono small box of pomegronltes to supply tho wholo of Salt Lako Is proof that this population has not learned to eat a fruit which 13 considered delicious where lt is grown. That Thanksgiving and cold weather draw near Is told by the- fragrant mincemeat mince-meat which is on the markot for tho first tlmo this year. Thero aro two grades of It, soiling- at 8 cents and 9 conls. Tho turkeys, which have been hero somo days, are still scarce. Wholesale Quotations. Hay. Grain and Straw.
