Market Notes On West Coast Prices And Canneries
Market notes from San Francisco report rising meat and dairy prices amid tightening stocks, with creamery butter at 27 to 20 cents, ground alfalfa a valued staple, and milk cows selling in the East for 50 to 60 dollars. Potatoes remain pricey as Western shipping declines, while California canners secure a vast can supply with 300 million cans contracted for five years. Wool markets show dullness but a hopeful outlook. U.S. on-hand wood stocks compare 96,697,430 pounds to 98,035,950 pounds year over year. Continuous price pressures reflect broader inflation in dairy and meat sectors.
