TRADE WITH ARGENTINE
EXPORT OF FRUIT. (By Telegraph— Prose Association.) CHRISTCHTJRCH, Last Night. Prior to the war a promising trade was being .built up between New Zealand and the Argentine in stud stock and fruit, but the outbreak of" hostilities disorganised shipping, and business fell off. - The Hon. \V. * A. Nosworthy has been in communication with the Shaw, Savill Co., • the breeders, and orchardists, with a view to recapturing the trade, but enquiries show that an insumicent quantity ot live stock would be forthcoming for direct shipment. In regard to fruit, no satisfactory arangements could be made, but the matter would again be gone into before next season in the hope that the shipping companies would be able to meet the position subject to satisfactory business arrangements being possible. In 1914 "65,932 cases of fruit were shipped'to South America, 59,529 in the following year, and in 1916, when the export was stopped, 19,228.
