VEGETABLE SALES AT STREET STALLS
OTAKI GROWEE5 ASSIST IN WELLINGTON Some thi.rty-seven market gardeners ' and helpers from Otaki, including a nuniber of Chincse, visited WelJJngton yesterday to-take charge of thc growers' vegetable stalls, and as a result. of their efforts. the su mof £746 was taken in salys. The produce oft'cred was of high quality and quicldy realised the pric.es asked, it being recognised that the Otaki growers produce notliliig butdlie best. It was a most successful day, and it is worthy to note that over 2000 cases of cauliflowers. were soon disposed of. A consignment of cauliflowers was also sent from Auckland, but Ihe quality was very much below that of the Otaki produce. In consequence the northern produce was iiot as keenly sought after, but sold at 2s 9d per bag.
