Views of a Delegate.
Mr Lane, one of the Boer delegates now visiting this [colony, states that the delegates are taking back to South Africa samples of New Zealand grass seeds, as it is intended to introduce artificial grasses in South Africa. The delegates consider Ayrshire Stock the moat suitable for their country. They anticipate, on account of the similarity of climatic conditions, the stock of this description will be secured from New Zealand and Australia. Mr Lane considers there is a great opening in South Africa for tinned butter and cheese, 51b in weight, and of flat shape. A mistake was made in Canada, he says, by shipping large factory sizes, which are only saleable in a few of the principal towns, Owing to the scarcity of stock, a good demand must also continue for a considerable time for frozen meat.!
