A meat v;ar is now raging in V. nnganui (says an exchange). I-ast week a meat company brought the price down and to-day a new company, comprising graziers and heel-growers, brought the juice of beef down by r. further penny per pound all round. Fillet is down to Pd, rump steak to 7d, and sirloin to -Id. with other lines correspondingly low in price. When the shop opened this morning it had all the appearance of a first clay large display sale, the stores being crowded all dnv. The other large shop was also packed all day. and never in. the history of Wanganui has so much meat been retailed within 12 hours. One company is delivering meat at the new cut prices, and rpute a fleet of motor-vans is engaged in delivering orders. One man interested in the meat trade states that there is going to he a regular spring-cleaning in the butchery business throughout the Dominion. Men !
