BUTTER-There was further add
vance yesterday of 1ac on the highest
grades of butter. This was caused
by the demand for such grades and
the serious falling off of the make.
Quality of receipts are little better
than last week. but most of the but
ter is undergrade and this is not
selling. Dealers complain that there
is too wide a margin between held
and fresh stock the quotation is &c,
and as a rule it is lie. Fine stock was
well cleaned up at the close last
night. Prices: Creamery, extras, 81
