Produce Market Report Shows Cream Receipts Lift Butter Prices
The report notes continued cream run tempering butter markets with lower prices for butter-fat. Butter production rose 43.7 percent in the week ending December 17 compared to 1920. Poultry trade remains strong nationwide, though Christmas turkey sales lag and live shippers’ values boosted dress stock prices in producing zones. Large poultry stores persist, while egg supply grows due to favorable weather. USDA December 21, 1921 data lists storage in Chicago, New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, totaling 49.5 million pounds in 1921 versus 48.9 million in 1920, with a 10.6 million pound excess.
