SALE OF DAIRY COWS
By Telegraph—Press Association.
CHEESE AREAS' POSITION
Matamata, sept. That the Order-in-Council which prevented the sale of dairy cows in cheese districts had *only been held in abeyance and not annulled was stressed by Mr. F. W. Doidge, M.P., in an address to Matamata farmers. Mr. Doidge said a Southland farmer, aged 60, whose son was in hospital with rheumatic fever and whose daughter was married, had decided to sell his herd owing to these facts and his inability to get labour. The sale was duly advertised, but a representative of the Department of Agriculture called upon the auctioneers and asked if they had a permit for the sale. They had replied that they did not know a permit was necessary. The Order-in-Council was then shown and the sale stopped. With other members, Mr. Doidge said he had made strong representations to the Minister, with the result that the Order-in-Council was now being held in abeyance. However, as it has not been annulled, the position would have to be. watched very carefully.
