DAIRY INDUSTRY
OPENING PROSPECTS NOT BRIGHT. The Home market prospects for the dairyman appear anything but bright at the present juncture, and the secretary of, a local dairy company informed a “Standard” reporter yesterday that the first shipment of butter from his company’s factory for the new season had realised only 147 s per cwt, equal to about 1/2 per lb., f.o.b. It was the company’s last shipment of full butter, as its future output would all come under the operations of the Dairy Control Board. Tlie first shipment as the outset of last season, realised on September 6,200 stq 2025, and butter was commanding 154 s to 176 s on the London market two months later. It was evident therefore, that the 1926-27 season was opening at a most unfavourable level.
