BARLEY AND ORANGES FROM AUSTRALIA
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, August 16. Marketing problems were discussed in Australia by the Hon. J. G. Barclay, Minister of Marketing, who has returned from the Commonwealth. One outcome of his visit will be the importation of 100,000 additional sacks of barley from South Australia for fowl and pig food. New Zealand imported 41,000 cases of navel oranges this year compared with 35,000 cases last year, said Mr Barclay, but the greatly increased local demand would make further shipments difficult to arrange. The Minister said there was not the remotest chance of the Dominion being able to import potatoes from Australia, where the position concerning this commodity was more acute than here.
