The London Butter Market.
The London agents of a Taran.iki dairyman send him the following advice : — '-London, December 21st, ISU4. We carefully inspected your six boxes of butter, and have to-day sold them at 100s. We consider ifc very well made fine butter, tho boxes varied a little in quality, two of them showed they had been made some little time. We think it would be better for being a little more salted. It would be brisker in character and would suit the retailer better, as in damp muggy weather delicate butter, such as jours, coming out of thr reirigerator, is liable to turn rank very rapidly. The market is in a very bad state, the very finest factory butter is to be bought at 96s and ( JSs, ami some <S,OOO boxes arc being put into cold store, the holder being unable to sell. Would it be possible for your Fanners' Union to [tut up a "factory." The uniformity tf factory butter is s:o great an advantage tho quality of one box being an idea of the whole parcel. We would not advise shipping to England alter the second week in March, as butter begins to come here plentifully from the continent in April, and continues to arrive all the summer through."
