Public Demand For Undergrade Butter Strong PORTLAND, Apr. 6 (P) Only one conclusion could be drawn from the repeated steadiness of the market for undergrade butter while top scores reflect weakness and price cuts. The public Is demanding the lower score offerings. Price may be the consid eration but the fact remains that much of the time recently the lowest score butter on the market has sold at practically the same price as the extreme top score and at Intervals the differential between top and bottom score Is but 1 to 2c lb. During the Initial session of the week the Portland produce exchange price of all cube butter was down lo lb., the only exception being first grade which was unchanged. The price of butterfat was lowered lc lb. again conforming to the lower butter value. Both changes were ex pected In view of the Increasing Bur pluses along the coast. There was no change In the egg market situation for the day. The local co-ops are maintaining their prices but some underselling by out siders Is reported.
