DATE OF CHURNING
NEED ON BUTTER BOXES (Prom Our Own Correspondent) WELLINGTON, To-day. Renewed efforts are being made in London to get the New Zealand Dairy Produce Export Board to stamp the various boxes of butter with the date of the churning. Complaints are being lodged that speculators in the butter market are buying Dominion butter, storing it for four or five months, and releasing it upon the market in a somewhat deteriorated condition. This is damaging the market fox* New Zealand produce. The board already lias arrangements with dairy factories whereby the various boxes are marked with the date of delivery at the factory, but they do not bear the full date, and convey nothing to dealers outside New Zealand. For the sake of the trade in England and also for the benefit of New Zealand, it is being urged that this method be altered and that the full date be stamped upon the boxes.
