BUTTER FOR CANADA
AUCKLAND, This Day.
Heavy shipments of butter will leave in the Niagara for Vancouver to-morrow. This will'be the last shipment to arrive in Canada paying one cent per pound duty. In all, it is expected that the -vessel •will take approximately 34,000 boxes. To date, no arrangements have been made for consignments' to Eastern Canada this season. ■ Next month's bookings of space are comparatively heavy ones, space for more than 240,000 boxes of butter having been allotted to this port. Four vessels will make Auckland their final port of loading. Practically the whole of the exports will go to London. "The latest statistical information from Canada shows that stocks of butter in that country are just under 50 per cent, up on those of the corresponding period of last year. The chief handicap to shipments of butter from New Zealand at the moment, however, is the uncertainty about the tarilf, and the proposal to levy 8 e'ents per pound British preferential which would apply to New Zealand.
