Butter Remains Quiet
Dairy Produce
LONDON, August 27. Butter has remained quiet this week. Buyers are apathetic, even in the face of the improvement of Danish and Continental sorts. There have been large offers of Canadian butter, but it is impossible so far to detect sales in useful quantities. It is expected that in the next two months, moreover,, exports from Europe will be fully up to last year’s. Therefore it does not appear that the market will have the customary autumn rise. Consumption remains steady, but is about SCO tons a week less than in 1937. There is little prospect of an improvement unless butter is retailed in the region of 1/- a lb.
