CHEESE COMPARISON
NEW ZEALAND v. CANADIAN.
: Not long ago the discrepancy between the prices in London of New Zealand and Canadian cheese, in favour of the latter, caused some alarm. An analysis of the situation seems to it., ] .The N.Z. Dairy Producers Board reports that the average prices of New Zealand and Canadian cheese, taking the High Commissioner's weekly quotations as a basis, have been:—New Zealand: Coloured, 99s 4d; white, 99s Id. . Canadian: Coloured, 105s 9i; white, 106s 2d. Average: prices when both countries had supplies together on market:—New Zealand, coloured, 99s 4d; white, 99s Id. Canadian, coloured, 104s; white, 104s 6d. "Premium in favour of Canadian:— Coloured, 4s" 8d; white, 5s sd. "On 24th April, Canadian, both white and coloured, was quoted at 14s premium over New Zealand. On Ist August and 19th September, New Zealand vai quoted at A premium of from Is to 2s over. Canadian. These.two comparisons indicate the extreme movements in the market us' recorded by these figures. . "Last year the premium on Canadian on both varieties averaged Is 8d per cwt.. In the 1923-24 season, we averaged from 3s to 5s better than the Canadian. This latter fact unquestionably stimulated the sister Dominion to great effort to retrieve her laurels. Market levels must be taken as indicating the results of these efforts. "We leave further reflections just now (concludes the board) to our cheese factory managements."
