CO-OPERATION AMONG FREEZING COMPANIES.
New Zealand lost between £2,000,000 and £3,000,000 by the drop in wool prices last year, and this fact is setting producers thinking. By competition amongst agents who are selling practically one nrand of meat, \t is calculated that a respectable sum is lost to New Zealand over its meat trade, and this is raising again the question of co-operation amongst freezing companies In this connection Mr Stringer, Secretary to the Auckland Farmers' Freezing Company, suggests that all the loss on wool, meat, butter, hides, etc., could be saved -to the Dominion by the establishing of one big distributing agency in England, or by sending all New Zealand produce through one house in London. This, he points out, would result in the increasing of the value of New Zealand's export trade by a very large amount.
