THE FISH SUPPLY.
Discussing the fish supply * with a Southland Times representative on Saturday; a Bluff merchant said that the consuming power of Now Zealand was not sufficient to deal with the supply, and would not be capable of d'ling iso for 'the next fifty years. Only one or two varieties pay to oeze, and it i& impossible to regulate the supply. Hence at times there is a shortage and fish become deaa-; at other times there is ia glut, and they become cheap. In a big place like Melbourne, for instance, the consumption is correspondingly big, and waste is reduced to a minimum. Although there is always a good supply of fish" in Melbourne, they have no fish there that can be compared to Bluff's blue cod.
