NEW ZEALAND PRODUCE IN ENGLAND.

Mr. H. C. Cameron, the New Zealand Produce Commissioner in London, in his report, dated the 17th November, Btates that inquiries show that although ' fishiness ' was somewhat prevalent in Australian butter, that coming from New Zealand was exceptionally free from it. if any boxes of fishy butter came to hand he would endeavour to secure them. Daring the past few weeks the butter market has been in a most unsatisfactory condition, and he cannot say what the future prospects of the market are likely to be. He is not sanguine that fair prioea are likely to continue, but possibly by the time the New Zealand butter comes on the market in any large quantity the prices may have improved. It was admitted last year that New Zealand butter was generally superior to that from Victoria, and he fully expects shortly to find New Zealand butter occupying a very high position in the estimation of the butter trade of Great Britain. Theoheese market has remained very steady, and there is every probability of the present firmness being maintained.
