NEW ZEALAND BUTTER.
UNFAVORABLE REPORTS. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright Received 14, 1 a.m. Sydney, April 13. The Telegraph's San Francisco correspondent says the flooding of the markets on the Pacific Coast with New Zealand butter has had a disastrous effect on sale. American produce prices have fallen to a record low level of 22 cents a pound wholesale for best creamery butter. Violent criticism is made respecting certain consignments of New Zealand butter.
A Seattle firm states that if New Zealand expects to do any considerable aniount of butter business she must make radical changes in the matter of inspecting. When butter bought certificate as being strictly first grade is found to.be second or third grade, it naturally causes firms to buy sparingly. The remedy lies in having expert followiap inspectors to examine the butter before exportation. Instances have beou found where butter has been held thircv days after the Government stamped it. It should be exported while fresh.
