DAIRY PRODUCE MARKET
Br Telegraph. —Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. Enquiries in produce circles show that there is no prospect 0 f the local price of butter (top brands) dropping below Is Oy,d per lb wholesale and la 2d per lb retail this side of Christmas. Butterbuyers for Home have taken all thev could get up to March next, and that at from ll%d to 11 %d. The low prices on the London market, therefore, do not affect companies who have made their contracts and so secured themselves as the great majority of them have done. In view of this fatt, suppliers of the local market cannot see their way clear to come below U%d per lb. There is ■ considerable amount of inferior dairy butter to be had at a lesser rate, but tie New Zealand palate is more fastidious than that of the England buttereaters, who do not mind a milled article with a bit of a ,- tang" iu it.
