EXCELLENT IMPRESSION

OF NEW ZEALAND PRODUCE. (IT TELEQIUPH— SPECIAL TO 111 POST.) AUCKLAND, This Day. An excellent' impression, regarding New Zealand frozen meat and dairy produce exists in Great Britain, according to the Hon. D. Buddo, M.P. for Kaiapoi, who returned by the Makura from a visit to Australia, the United Kingdom, and the Continent. Mr. Buddo left for Wellington by last evening's express train. The system of sale and storage of New Zealand frozen meat in London, appealed to Mr. Buddo as an eminently practical one. Comparatively little damage was done to the carcases, and the storage accommodation within easy reach of Smithfield Market seemed to meet all the requirements of the trade. The Smithfield salesmen Mr. Buddo met spoke very strongly in favour of cool chamber accommodation being arranged close to the market. No meat went back into the store, but frequently a shortage occurred during the morning which had to be made up at once. During a visit to the Albert Dock Mr.' Buddo saw several vessels discharging by the end-less-chain system. This appeared to be in general use, and, in his opinion, was, best calculated to prevent damage to ' the meat. He saw some unloading into store in nets, a system which seemed to him to be more liable to cause damage to the meat than the endless-chain system. Altogether, the New Zealand frozen meat trade was in a very healthy condition, and everyone seemed to consider it likely that prices would be maintained. New . Zealand meat was very highly spoken of, and the only thing that seemed to prevent it being more largely used was the slightly higher cost as compared with other frozen meats. A similarly good opinion existed at Home regarding New Zealand dairy produce. Mr. Buddo said he saw various .brands of New Zealand butter in the shops, and found it was only second in demand to Denmark butter; in fact, some persons he met said they preferred it. The butter of the Dominion was advertising itself, and was well known to every retail tradesman, and in every large town which Mr. Buddo visited he heard ,no comments or' suggestions as to improvement in quality, which went to show that the New Zealand butter was meeting the requirements of the Home purchaser.
