BUTTER OR CHEESE ?

WHAT WILL THE FUTURE BEING? Speaking at tho opening of the Matamau Cheese Factory, Mr. Graham, Assistant Government Dairy Inspector, referring to tho factory's change from butter to cheese-making, said he did not think the suppliers > would have any reason to regret the change from butter-making to ■ cheese-making.
