Yesterday (says the Timaru Herald, 9th July) a number of gentlemen met at the stores of Messrs. Gh Gh Russell. and Co., for the purpose of tasting some turned meat, preserved by the New Zealand Preserving Company at their establishment in Southland, Invercargill. Two tins were opened—one of mutton and another of tongue. The contents were not only good, but they were really appetising, and the mutton showed a feature not usually seen in tinned meats, by its containing a quantity of clear and most delicious jelly. The company's works at Invercargill have been in operation about eight weeks, and during that time they have turned out about fifty tons of preserved meat of exactly similar quality, we are assured, to that shown yesterday. Mr Moody, the manager of the company, is now in Timaru, making preparations to commence meat-preserving at the Washdyke Boiling-down establishment, and superintending the erection of the necessary buildings.
