PRICE OF AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS.
In regard to the rise in the price of agricultural implements, a member I of a Duneain firm considers that agents would all be. to a certain extent, affected, but points out the rise in the prices of implements manufactured in New Zealand would probably have the effect of driving people to,invest in imported articles, the manufacturers of which,' not being in New Zealand, were not affected by awards. It would, therefore, be seen that while local manufacturers stood to lose, whether they raised their prices or not, importers would probably bb gainers. Certain lines would undoubtedly remain unaltered, but as prices in standard lines were to be raised in Christchurch, ,the possibility of their prices remaining stationary in Otago and Southland was remote.
