BONER BEEF
>! Dairy Herds » * 1 I Slaughtered U (N Z. Press Association? :] HAMILTON, March 20. Whole dairy herds in the! Waikato were being booked ; | into the freezing works to be [ slaughtered as boners, the; chairman of the Waikato; Federated Farmers dairy sec,l tion (Mr J. Kneebone) told /the provincial executive in | Hamilton today. Mr Kneebone said the herds . were being booked in from ; the Morrinsville. Putaruru ' and Cambridge areas. This [and the large number of clearling sales in the Waikato:
reflected the lack of confi- ! dence in the dairy industry. “We are particularly concerned at the low price of dairy replacement stock in relation, to the price of boner beef.” he said. Financial institutions had little confidence in the industry and farmers were having extreme difficulty in obtaining seasonal finance, he said.
