PORTLAND, March 17 (AP) Ad Tnc In the pric of lower grade or icort butter on the produce exchange during the lut teanlon did not indi cate any material change In the gen eral altuatlon. It simply appeared that the aellera of lower acore butter were going to take profit while able to do ao. The big atores are taking all the undergrade butter offered and the public appeara well eatlafled. " T.nis resulted In both prime first and first advancing lo lb. for cube during the session. It means that there la today practically no premium for so-called top quality butter In the Portland market, .Recent attempt to force artificial advances on butterfat In Port 'Mid have failed. Setback of egg price was shown for the day aa a result of continued shading of value. Most of the cur rent weakneaa in the trade appears due to the peddling by producers dir ect to retailers. While In some quarters buyers shades their bids for live chickens during the day: general feeling in the market was at least steady. Prices are therefore a trifle mixed. There Is a mixed tone for dressed turkeys. Some buyers are taking 32c for No. 1 hens but little of the stock arriving can be classed In that grade, therefore such a price Is very seldom available. Increased buying of potatoes la re flected at Oregon country points for carload movement. Most of the local purchasers are around fiOo with sacks furnished by the buyers. General strength la Indicated at most leading American points. Cabbage advanced to a new high today at V4.60 per hundred pounds to retailers. This la for late California offerings.
