THE FROZEN MEAT TRADE
The London Daily Telegraph, of the 52nd October, publishes an article on •the rapidly- rising prices of meat which eliftgjd encourage New Zealanders who •QyntejOvplale shipping frozen mutton to th«> old country to persevere in their •good work. "We learn," says the (writer, from Mr Michael Mulhall's " Balance-sheet of the World" that Ergland consumes 1,800,000 tons of meat per annum, out of which shf produces but 1,205,900 tons. Hitherto the annual deficit has been supplied from America, but meat is now as .dear in New York, Boston, and Philadelphia &s in London. Frozen muttou will doubtiess come to our shores in large consignments from Australia, New Zealand and the Kiver Plate. Years upou years, however, will have to elapse before we can expect substantial help from these sources."
