BUTTER FOR EXPORT
AORANGI’S SHIPMENT MAINLY FOR AMERICA When the Aorangi sailed yesterday afternoon she had on board a consignment of approximately 27,479 boxes of butter. The bulk of the consignment, over 23,000 boxes, is for Vancouver and Victoria, British Columbia, while some 3,000 boxes are consigned to Honolulu with smaller quantities destined for transhipment to Chinese and Japanese ports. It had been expected that exports to Canada at this stage of the season would decline considerably, but the latest consignment is very little short of that sent forward four weeks ago, when 28,740 boxes were shipped. Consignments in November, December and January aggregated 87,000 boxes, giving a total in the four shipments of 114,480 boxes, or 2,862 tons.
