DAIRY INDUSTRY.
A FORTUNATE PROVINCE. Many of the dairy companies throughout Taranaki have held their annual meetings of shareholders and suppliers, and it is now possible to review with accuracy the season which has just closed (says the Taranaki Daily News). Though prices have been low, the conclusion is forced upon the impartial observer that the chairman of the Hawera Dairy Company, Mr J. R. Corrigan, was putting the position fairly when he said that the dairy farmers of Taranaki should consider themselves fortunate. With the possible exception of the wheat growers, no primary producers in New Zealand received a better return last season than the dairy farmers. Production on many farms has increased, nnancial difficulties have been eased wherever possible, settlers have responded to the call for extra effort, and Great Britain has absorbed all the dairy produce the Dominion has sent to her markets. Still more cheering is the fact that the quality of New Zealand cheese has shown a decided improvement during the season that has just closed.
