New Zealand Fish Industsy.
(Per Press Association.) Sydney, February 16. The Telegraph, referring to the Fisheries Commission, says Judge Oliver, who was a \member of a former fishery commission^ fl^s returned from New Zealand' with, the statement that there is little that a visit to that colony can teach one. Yet the windows of the principal fish shops in Sydney are perennially stocked with all sorts of New Zealand fish excellently cured. In these circumstances it is but fair to say that New Zealand is always able to teach us something, while she not only supplies her own market but ours as well. While our richly stored fishing grounds are practically ignored, New Zealand sends ns the best of her fish. The assertion sometimes ventured that the j people do not care for fish food is con- ; clusively answered by the fact that the supplies sent week by week not only find a sale, but often prices are fabulously high, and far beyond the means of the bulk of citizens.
