Cartoned demand is mixed. Most dealers still note good to very good orders while others have reported orders as fair and not up to anticipated levels. Traders indicate lighter orders are expected next week because of high retail shelf prices plus a lack of features which should dampen the buying interest. Floor stocks are adequate, and orders have been met in most all instances. Additional offerings are light, particularly on nest runs. Un dertone fully steady.
