BUTTER TRADE
STILL IN DOLDRUMS. POSITION AT HOME. LONDON, Saturday. The butter trade is still in the doldrums, but there are some signs that a slight improvement may possibly come before long. Stocks in cold store, though still very heavy, arc beginning to decline, and the total afloat from Australia, New Zealand and Argentine, is also falling off. There are prospects of an increase in the German quota of imports for the remainder of the year. This should mean smaller arrivals of Danish here. It is reported that South Africa is threatened with a butter famine as the result of last year’s drought. This may mean that some butter will be shipped there from England so that Australian producers might, well consider sending shipments to South Africa.
