BUTTER MARKET.
ENORMOUS SUPPLIES. DEPRESS PRICES. United Press Assn.--Elec. Tel. Copyright: LONDON, July 21. The London butter market is still suffering from the enormous weight of supplies. Stocks in cold store have risen to 1,732,750 boxes. Consequent there is a shortage of cold storage space and this has led to forced sales.
Large quantities are arriving from the Baltic provinces, with a depressing effect on all prices. Fortunately, the consumptive demand is very strong and as the retail price of the Dominions’ butter is now 8d to lOd per lb, traders expect consumption to expand still further.
