Prices.—For Danish butter 1s. 84., 1s. 94. and 1s. 104. were usual in the earlier part of the enquiry; later, most prices were from 1s. 94. to 1s. 11d. New Zealand butter was retailed at 1s. 84. in May and rose to 1s. 9d. towards the end of June. Finnish butter was chiefly sold in Leeds, at ls. 104. or 1s. 11d. in June and July, and at 2s. in September. In the Scotland area, 415 shops were visited ; 150 in Edinburgh and 265 in Glasgow. About half were Independents and half Multiples in each case. The First Survey took place from June 24th to July 12th when the Irish season was well advanced and very little change was observed at the time of the Second Survey in September. The figures in the table are taken from the First Survey. TABLE 32.—Percentage of Independent and Multiple Shops in Edinburgh and Glasgow stocking the main Types of Butter. Scotland. Edinburgh.

In over 40 per cent. of the shops in both Surveys it was the only butter stocked, and in practically all cases where other types were stocked in addition, Danish sales were stated to be considerably the largest. It was the staple butter in all types of shop except dairies. and even amongst these nearly half were stocking it. 3
