butter markets on. Monday opened
firm with prices advancing slightly.
The advances We're maintained with
difficulty; in fact, some markets regis
tered declines as early as TUESDAY.
and the general tone of the markets
was no more than steady.
The Chicago market, while not labor
ing under heavy supplies, at no time
exhibited a great deal of strength, and
late in the week. with sentiment in
favor of lower prices, appeared weak
with prices on top grades sharply
lower.
Trade from sellers standpoint on
all markets was very unsatisfactory.
Buying was for the most part of "A
hand-to-mouth nature. as the buyers
saw but little possibility of any up
turn in the market and operated ac-
cordingly. AS a result of this policy
on the part of buyers, sellers became
nervous. and. while in some instances
were unwilling to offer concessions,
there was an inclination to entertain
reasonable offers for goods.
