BUTTER AND CHEESE
DEMAND AND ARRIVALS
(By Telegraph—Press Assu.—Copyright.)
LONDON, January 4.
Contrary to expectations, butter has risen sharply. Considerable quantities of Australian butter have been withdrawn from sale. The demand is sufficient to take care of current arrivals and to warrant higher prices, especially as it is anticipated that only 2000. tons of Australian butter wlil be shipped from next week.
Baltic butters are also short. The delayed improvement in cheese has . also materialised. While the trade does not expect the higher levels to continue indefinitely, it anticipates a fair average season around 54s to Bbs for New Zealand white and coloured.
The New Zealand Producers' Cooperative Marketing Association's weekly cabled market report from London, dated January 3, is as follows:— Butter market firm. New Zealand, finest 98s to 100s per cwt, first grade 98s to 995; Danish, 128s. Cheese market firm. New Zealand, white 57s to 58s per cwt, coloured 61s 6d to 625.
