The Daily Market Report,

PORTLAND, May H. = Following
} advance Of cents q pound which
ok place on Tuesday Of this week,
ty butter makers today announced a
lrther 2-cent liit putting standard
ty creamery butter up to "a cents a
ound, the highest price known here
4 this TING, for years. There Is a
possibility, however, Of reaction and
over prices within the next few
weeks, y
A decidedly strong demand north
iog butter for the Alaska market aud
the fact that Coast supplies for the
time appear to be actually short OF
requirements are responsible for the
present spurt in the market The FIRST
large shipments from Puget Sound 70
the Far North will leave about the
first Of June, and to make up these
eonsignments Sound dealers have
been buying freely, yet have not been
able TO get the quantities they need,
Al the prices that have ruled for
the pas, few weeks II was impossible
to bring in butter from the East
Now, with local prices 4 cents higher
than at the FIRST OF the week, the sltua'
ton is changed materially and the
chances are that considerable East.
ern butter will be brought in shortly
for the Puget Sound and Alaska mar
keta, That the Coast markets will
weaken somewhat upon the arrival oi
large quantities Of Eastern butter and
the subsidenee OF the Alaska demand
is quite possible, but in this eonnec'
ton il must be remembered that pro-
duetoin will then be on the decline
TO some etent, while At the same time
tho ice cream season will be on,
Al this tine In 1905 standard city
creamery butter was selling az 20
cents q pound In the wholesale mar
ket and the following year at the
same figure, In May 1907, the price
was 22i cents, and at this time in 1908
the prevailing price was "a cents.
Butter now, therefore. is worth 4
cents a pound more than at this time
a year ago and 8 cents more than at
the same date In the year Of the
Lewis and Clark fair.
