TRANSFER OF TESTING STATION
SEED MERCHANT’S COMMENT >P.A.) PALMERSTON N., October 30. Commenting on the efforts of the Canterbury Manufacturers' Association to have the seed testing station transferred from Palmerston North to Canterbury, a leading seed merchant said disorganisation and adverse repercussions on the seed trade would result if a change were made. The Government’s refusal was the only sound and practicable view.
:r‘Tf was made, the first bbligauen-wOuld be to obtain a new technicaTstaff of 20 odd young women." added the merchant. "The present continuous testing service would be seriously disrupted. The question of speeding up tests is not one of location but of obtaining additional apparatus which hitherto has been unobtainable because of the war.”
