JUST THE BEST WE GANNST SAY MORE SHORTAGE OF MEAT TRUCKS. * (SPECIAL TO "THE TIIESS.' , ) WELLINGTON, January 27. A serious shortage of meat vans is delaying tho departure of the Indrapura for Home." The vessel is due to leave today, but has no chance of doing so. The' local agents complain bitterly that tho grievance is of long standing, and that the shortage will mean a heavy loss. So many trucks are used in the butter and cheese trade that there are not enough re.naining to rail meat to the loading ports. The tndrapura has been ready to receive meat for three days past, and as yet only 1600 carcases are on board, equal to one day's work. This morning tho ship is idle, and likely to be so all day, meat not arriving till evening, when overtime rates for wharf labour will bo necessary. KEEPTOR SCALP CHAN CUTICURA SOAP Frequent shampoos with Cuticura Soap, assisted when necessary by gentle anointings with Cuticura Ointment, afford the purest, sweetest and most economical method of freeing .the scalp of infants and children from minor eruptions, itchings and scalings and of establishing permanent hair health. Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold throughout the world. A liberal sample of each, with 32-page booklet on the care and treatment of the ekln and i scalp, sent post-fret. Addrta B.
