THURSDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1933. ------------------------------------------------------------ CAUSE OF THE BUTTER SURPLUS. Stocks of creamery butter in cold storage warehouses on November 1, 19 3 3, totaled 160,390,000 pounds. This amount was 93,562,000 pounds greater than the corresponding fig ure for 1932, and 65,006,000 pounds greater than the average stocks on November 1 for the five years, 1928- 1932. At the beginning of this year —on January 1, 1933—cold storage stocks of creamery butter were about 4,600,000 pounds less than on Jan uary 1, 1932, and 30,366,000 pounds less than the five-year average for January 1. This means that during the first ten months of 1933 a sur plus of creamery butter of between 96 and 98 million pounds has de veloped; that production has outrun consumption by approximately 97 million pounds more than normal for this period of the year. An analysis of the situation shows that this surplus Is due in part to a neavier than normal increase in production and to a decrease in con- sumption. Estimated production for the first ten months of 1933 was 1,- 511,965,0001 pounds as compared with 1,463,501,000 pounds for the first ten months of 1932; an in crease of 48,464,000 pounds. Appar ent trade output or consumption for the first ten months of 1933 totaled 1,373,695,000 pounds as compared with 1,422,786,000 pounds for the same period in 1932; a decrease of 49,091,000 pounds. It would seem from this that both production and consumption are about equally to tlame for this 97 million pound sur plus of butter. For as far back as statistics are available, however, both production and consumption show a very definite trend upward. Since 1922 production has increased at the rate of about 50 million pounds per year, and consumption has increased at the rate of about 16.5 million pounds. On this basis the increase in production in 1933 over that of 1932 is only a little more than might be expected, leav ing practically all of the surplus to be accounted for by a drastically lowered consumption. These trends nave not been quite so sharply up ward In the last few years, however, and on the basis of the past five years, an Increase of about 30 mil ion pounds both in consumption and in production might have been ex pected for the first ten months of 1933 as compared with the same period tn 1932. Since production ac tually increased 48 million pounds, it might be said that about 18 mil lion pounds of the surplus may be ittributed to a heavier than normal production, and around 79 million pounds of the surplus to a lighter than usual consumption. As compared with the five-year average, production for the first ten months of 1933 was up 116,522,000 pounds. Apparent consumption for he first ten months of 1933 was 22,183,000 pounds above the five- year average.

Cannery 8 Laundry production and consumption during the first ten months of 1933 might have been expected to be about 90 million pounds higher than the five- year average. On this basis produc tion is about 26 million pounds higher than it should be and con sumption around 68 million pounds lower than it should be. The part that production has played in this surplus is very recent For the first six months of 1933 when the surplus amounted to only about 26 million pounds, production was actually about 2 million pounds lower than it was in the same per iod in 1932. •* * * * * * * * * * * * t UMATILLA NEWS t By Louise Byrnes T.
