PRICE OF DRUGS.
A CENERTAIT REDUCTION. . Auckland, last Night. A general reduction has been made in the prices of drugs and chemicals, which were advanced immediately after the outbreak of war. The latest lists issued by wholesale merchants show a small advance on the prices ruling before the war, but in most instances th« increase in cost is not sufficient to be distributed among retail customers. Little difficulty is now being experienced in obtaining supplies of drugs, and efficient substitutes have been placed on the market to supply requirements which wer e formerly met by German laboratories. i A letter received by an Auckland. chemist from a London wholesale firm indicates that the prohibition upon export of drugs does not materially restrict the supply for the Dominion. Although the prohibition has not been removed, we are able, the firm,, wrote, on December 11, to obtain Government licenses for practica)ly everything. Re"* gular sailings are being made, and we can execute all orders promptly.
