BUTTER MARKET
DANISH BELOW ' NEW ZEALAND (By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright) (Australian & N.Z, Cable Association.) LONDON, June" HI. A feature of the butter market during the week has been Danish selling at the same price as Australian and 2/to 4/- below New Zealand. This is one of the effects of the coal strike and the consequent -trade depression in the Midlands and the North of England which is the .principal market for Danish, the production, of .which now is very large. Germany is now taking practically no Danish, so the whole export is sent to Britain. The low price of Danish quickly attracted buyers and much was bought for storage, with the result that the price recovered to 170/- and 178/-, which is about on ’a parity with New Zealand and -Aus- • l.ralian, being 172/- and 17/0-.
