INSURING CONDEMNED STOCK.
As the result of a deputation from the Master Butchers' Association, the Executive Committee of the Auckland A. and P. Association has appointed a sub-committee to report on the question of establishing a mutual insurance fund between sellers and buyers of stock to cover losses caused by the condemnation of stock. Losses resulting from stock being condemned is a very serious matter for those who handle stock to any greac extent. Both butcher and farmer suffer a dead less, the former if stock is condemned after a sale is effected, and 'he latter if beasts are condemned before they are sold. How to provide against the loss referred to, particularly when slock values are high, has been a vexed question ever since the stringent regulations concerning diseased stockcame it:to force. When stock is condemned some one must suffer the loss, and a scheme to compensate, in a measure, the loss sustained through the condemnation of stock, should, if established on round lines, be a move in the right direction. The report of the committee appointed to cor aider the question should be read with interest by those concerned.
