At a very opportune time the New Zealand Sugar of Milk and Casein Company has, during the past few days, placed the first refined sugar of milk manufactured commercially in this country on the market, which, owing to the war, was practically bare of this product. The company (says the Otago Daily Times) is to be congratulated on having achieved this in spite of many obstacles. In view of the fact that most of the milk sugar which found its way into England and the Empire generally was manufactured in Europe, and as that source of supply to the Mother Country has been closed for some time, owing to the war, it is the intention of the company to extend the scope of its operations at the earliest opportunity. The product that is now being manufactured at Edendale (the company’s refinery) is, we understand, of a very high quality. The company hopes to be able t» export its product in the course of a month or so, by which time New Zealand will be adequately supplied.
