KERI KERI ORANGES
High Prices Received In Christchurch (By Telegraph—Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, October 2. Record prices were received for Keri Keri oranges auctioned on the Christchurch market today. One broker sold 27 bushel cases from 38/- to 41/-. The fruit sold was of the Mediterranean Sweet variety, and, according to the broker, was a credit to the grower. Retailers eagerly pounced on the opportunity of securing New Zealandgrown oranges as they had been suffering from short supplies for a long time. The last overseas shipment was received 10 days ago from South Australia, but it was a small consignment and arrived in “wasty” condition, necessitating repacking.
