Frozen Meat Trade.
.». At sevenpence a pound, the hearts of thofe who shipped meat in the British King six weeks ago will be light. The heavier the price the lighter the heart. The meat, we learn, was excellent and the butter delicious enough for the most fastidious epicure. The name of Nev: Zealand mutton is established, and is steadily rising, and no doubt will soon be equal to Scorch. In this moment of success we f-houlri pause and consider tlic threat o f an Australian Meat Freezing Company to stop work unless better supported by the flock -owners. Th^ fact is that flockowners have, by their ex"rbitaat demands, always proved disastrous to meat companies. Lit those who go into business of refrigeration be warned never to purchase a single pound from any flockowner. The trade will never be successful unless, the refrigerator keeps to his legitimate business of carrvinor. It is the only way to keep the flockowner in his place. — "anterbury Times.
