Buyers are coining on more freely, and \\v hope to see Is to 2s belter prices during Hie next few days. Danish : Prices remain the same as last reported, but there is a very fair demand at presold rales, and ail die liuesl dairies arc selling well. I'rench: A'o change to report. The (|uantity coming forward is still insigliilicanl.
