Judge's Comjnent. Professor Drnmmond, of Kilmarnock, indgo of cheeso and nnsalted butter, : said the butter reached a good average standard, tho prize-winners quite out- ; standing in excellence. Tho_exhibits Iwere as good as any lie had'inspected , for, a long time, the colour being bright jintl the texturo close. The exhibits wore' geftprally attractively put up, and >; showed to marked advantage. -"The ' cheese," he concluded, "is irregular, many of the exhibits being weak in ' body and deficient in flavour. . The - prizo lots are very useful - samples. The principal cause of the deficioncy in< quality has, been imperfect , ripening of the milk,'.causihg"weaknes's .• in body." • • '• • HIIME MINISTER GRATIFIED. >. A cablegram similar in substance to ■: ;that printed above was received from the -,v Higli Commissioner by the Prime Minister yesterday, and was read by Mm ' ~ . to the House of Representatives.

' Having-read the cablegram the Prime 1 , Minister said he need hardly remind 1 ;" honourable membors that the Islington i . 'Show was ■ probably tho moat important .i <l(vifir show held .in Great Britain. In ; , ■ viow pf. the fact that during the; last - , few-months there had been a lot of i r; ' comment both in this country and in 'England about New Zealand dairy ex- ' ports, and particularly-cheese, having ' : v '.; deteriorated in quality, this ;ilews was ! . .particularly gratifying. •It should go i . ft long.'way towards re-establishing the 1 reputation of New 'Zealand dairy pro-, f 'duce; ;' The High Commissioner, the. . 'Prime Minister added, sent .his congra- 1 • ■ tulations. _ i ' Sir Joseph Ward expressed his grati l ( fication at the position taken by New j Zealand products at this important t show. He wished'to add his congratula- ( to tlio winners, and'to suggest f to the others that they should not lose i : : heart, But .aim at .reaching an equally ( '. satisfactory position. ' ] .''. i : It many years to.build up. t ' the reputation of - the "Gilruth"'~Calf j 'Food,but at last merit.is rewarded, and i this food comes into its own. The "Gil- • ruth" Calf Food is now stockod by'almost \ evefy Storekeeper in the Dominion.—Advt. 'J Advt.. ; - ~ ■' ' - I . t
