nparing the results of the two Surveys, the number of shops
ing Irish butter had almost doubled at the second period, the
ser stocking New Zealand had dropped to four-fifths of the
ous total, and the number stocking Australian to one-third.
wesultant drop in the total numbers stocking New Zealand and
-alian butters was somewhat greater than the increase in the
ers stocking Irish. The figures for farm butter and for bulk-
led and packeted butters were almost unchanged. Of the areas,
pool showed the greatest change and Yorkshire the least.
Butter is imported into the United Kingdom through three main
nels: Australian and New Zealand butters chiefly through
lon ; Irish butter through the ports on the West coast; and
RAT. tiers, mostly from Denmark, through the ports on the
coast.
e main markets for each type of butter tend to be grouped round
orts of entry.
w Zealand butter was most frequently stocked in the South and,
ie earlier months of the year, in Liverpool. In Yorkshire and
and it was moderately frequent in Non-Local Multiples, but
in other shops. Australian butter was most popular in London
Birmingham. Like New Zealand butter, it was rarely stocked in
North and East.
ish butter, which was not available in quantity till June, found
ain market in the West, though it was stocked by a fair number
ops in London. In South Wales, in the area served by Fishguard,
1s by far the predominant type of butter in its season ; in Liverpool
:ld a position comparable with Danish, and in Glasgow it was
nd to Danish. Many of the retailers who stocked Irish butter
:d that they change over to New Zealand or Australian in the
er months.
anish butter was the staple type in the North and East. in
:rpool and Birmingham it was about equal in popularity to
pire butters; in London, Bristol and South Wales it was
'h less commonly found.
