BUTTER-MAKING IN WAIKATO.

Blunt mvkin'i: for export will soon bo one of tht 1 loading fe.ituio- in the operations of Waik.ito cheese factoues. Considering the excellent market which everywhere awaits a really good article it is a matter of \eiy meat suipn-e that it has not been taken up long since. The Paterangi factory is, we believe, doing admirably out of its butter, and wo hope to Hee the produce of the Hamilton factory soon in the market com lnanding the highest price obtainable. The directors of the Cambridge Cheese Factory met on Friday evening, when the matter of buttei -making was taken into coiixideiation. This branch of daiiy pio (luce was looked upon with consideiablo favour, and pie.sented a most encouraging prospect. It wart thought that the maclnneiy necessary for butter-making might be procured and made leady for work about ne\t April, when the milk supply would have fallen too low for cheese-making, and no doubt this idea will bo given effect to. Mr Frank Hicku, of Pukokura, seeing the great ad\ an tnges of this trade, and having gi\cn thr nutter careful consideration is also about to develop some little enterprise in this line. Mr Hicks intends to erect a Intge dany for butter making purposes using the centrifugal cream beparator now in use in the Hamilton nud Paterangi factories. Ho mtoivls milking about 100 cows, 1 earing the calves on the skimmed milk, which of itself should bo a veiy considerable item in tlir industry. Messrs Wells and Soutter hive undeitiken to buy all he can make at a good price for the first twelve months. As Mi Hicks is one of those industtioux, puhevering, and thoroughly c\peiieiicpd settler*, the venture cannot fail to turn out successful in his hands. Wo wish him evciy prosperity.
