BREAD,
To the Editor. Sir, —I am glad to bear that a stir iv being made to start a cooperative bakery in Akaroa. The price of bread here is 33 per cent, higher than in any sea coast town of New Zealand. The Christchurch bakem at the end of last month, I see by driver* tisement, reduced their 41b lonf to sd, and the face of this, with a fnilipg wheal market, we are still charged 7d. j I admit the. quality .is first class, butt hungry children ere. I find, not specially fjtetidioue.. and the price of this article, dombined with the high price of qnoationuble butter causes inn often some anxiety, Our supplies of flour are all sea buund, and should cost less than in Cliristchuroti. I trust the bread runkir.g co-operation will go on, and relieve an ANXIOUS MOTHER,
Sir,—Will you allow me space in your columns to address a few words in reference to the action of the Okain's Road Board why, in letting fencing at Little Akalofl, it was not given to the lowest tenderer. Was it partiality on the part of the Board ? If they want to waste the public money, why not let their work privately, and (hen they could do without the working man and give all to their friends.— Yonrs, etc., RATEPAYER.
