PROCESS OF SOURING MILK AN IMPOTANT MATTER, (By Telcrrc.p'ii—l'resa Association) Hamilton, Decembor 22. .For some timo past Mr. Yomig, member for Waikato, has been in correspondence with' the Prime Minister respecting the powers of the New Zealand Casein Board- to control the process of souring milk for purposes other than the manufacture of casein which might bo used by butter and cheese manufacturers within the Dominion. Mr. Massey has. now replied.as follows;—"As regards the patent taken out by the New Zealand Casein Board for a process of souring milk in conncction with the manufacture' of casein, the Department Trent into the matter at the time the patent was applied for. It recognised that the process had been employed for a- considerable time in connection with butter and cheese making, and. I am informed that the legal position is that the patentees' rights cannot be enforced if it can be proved that the patented process was known and used either in New Zealand or elsewhere before the grant of the patent. In view of this statement, I do not think there is anything to bo feared from any action by the New Zealand Casein Co."
