Surplus of Separators Something akin to "adding insult to injury" was perpetrated last week on scores of Rangitaiki Plains cheese factory suppliers by an Auckland firm which sells a well-known of cream separator. Apparently unaware that these farmers had six months ago been put to an expense of £50 or so each in changing over from butter to cheese supply, this firm circularised them along with thousands of other farmers, offering payments of £1 or 10/- to those farmers who could get an order for a separator from their friends and neighbours. This seems more than a joke to cheese suppliers who have £50 or so worth of separator lying Idle in their milking sheds. They would have been better pleased if the letter had offered to buy their dismantled separators.
