FARM PRODUCTION
INCREASE CONSIDERED UNLIKELY THIS SEASON.
(By Telegraph—Press Asoeiation.) HAMILTON. March 7
A forecast that primary production in New Zealand during the present season would probably not exceed last season's production was made by Mr H. Rhodes, chairman of directors of the Te Awamutu Dairy Company, speaking at a conference of county council representatives with the Minister of Agriculture. “The cry today," he said, “is for production and still more production. Despite the wonderful flush feed this year, and notwithstanding the fact that some dairy factories in the north have shown an advance up to date on last season's production, I have received reliable information that we will be lucky if we finish the present season with production figures equal to last season, which was a poor year for the dairy-farmers."
