BUTTER TO CHEESE
CHANGE DIFFICULT IN CANTERBURY. COMPANY CHAIRMAN’S SURVEY. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. Expressing doubts as to whether the dairy industry in Canterbury could swing any further from butter to cheese production, the Chairman of Directors of the Central Dairy Company. Mr.-R. Nairn, said this morning that the position had been forseen by his company. “Canterbury is hardly in a position to turn over to cheese production, as is the case in other districts,” he said. “in Canterbury we have to face the problem of a large number of small suppliers with cream collections over a widely scattered area. I cannot see how we could reorganise collections to overcome this difficulty. In face it would be almost an impossibility.” Another point was that Canterbury butter production was only sufficient to carry the province over for half the year, from February onwards. Winter supplies of butter were drawn from Kaikoura and the West Coast.
