DUNEDIN NOTES.
(SPECIAL TO "THE PRESS.") DUXEDES , ", May 3. OGers have .been submitted to the Land Puroh-ass Board of jjro-perties near Mosgkl and Abbotsford for settlement purposes under the Land for Settlements Act. As showing the necessity for shippers and shipowners displaying greater care in the niitikliig of cases of produce for export, attention to yesterday directed to tli3 treatment to which a number of caszs of for export by the Wc.-tralia, had burn subjected. The consignee's murks had been rudely applied in lampblack, and th? steamer's marks for the purpose cf classification &f the cargo had been carelessly smeared on with paint. On some cases tlie Government brand was almost obliterated. This probably accounts for the Produes Commissioner iai London recently informing the Depart mt-nt of Agriculture that a shipment of chse.se- from an Otago factory suffered in the Eni>ii;h market because it was contained in rough casts.
