BUTTER MARKET.
SURPLUS IN COLD STORAGE. LONDON,. May 17. Discussing the butter situation, a representative of a leading Tooley Street firm says: “Although the consumption is reported to be increasing, evidently it is not increasing sufficiently to absorb current supplies, as the cold store stocks in this country have increased by 4800 tons during the last four weeks, and have now reached 21,300 tons, which is a considerable weight, although wholesalers’ and retailers’ stacks are running much lighter than usual. “We hear of dry weather in New Zealand, and the prospect of Canada taking some of tire surplus now in cold storage in New Zealand, and if these two factors come about, we may have a much better outlook, but the make in Continental countries is expanding, and these countries are finding difficulty in selling their produce week by week.”
