WATCH YOUR SACKS
DISTRICT FARMERS WARNED
SERIOUS SHORTAGE. POSSIBLE
The Eastern Bay of Plenty Council of Primary Production have had its attention drawn to the urgent need in the conservation of all jute goods; sacks, woolpaeks. etc. Users must be aware that the Japanese occupation of Burma and their influence in the Indian Ocean has created a difficult position in these commodities and it is essential that existing supplies should be nursed. All users should take a responsible view of the situation and see that not a sack is wasted but preserved and resold, to merchants.
position is not yet clear with regard to the resale of fertiliser sacks, but steps are beiitng ta'ken to clarify that point, when more publicity will be given on the subject. Meantime conserve everything.
