CHEAPER CITRUS FRUITS
Consumers' in New Zealand will bo interested to learn that it is probable' that oranges, lemons, and mandarins are likely to be considerably cheaper than they have been of late years. This is the opinion of Mr. H. G. Such, manager of the Nf w South Wales Central Citrus. Association. Mr. Such has just .^ concluded a tour of the Dominion in the interests of his association. Se states that; the Australian crop promises to be heavy, and it will be necessary to find aii outlet for the expected sur- , plus. The quantity .sent to New land'should ; bo much greater than for some years past, and a ' much lower, range of prices is anticipated. • Mr.Such is of opinion that the public will welcome a return to cheaper oranges, as the usual price of 3s or more per, dozen make them, too expensive forj average families. New South Wales co-operative com. panics pack their fruit to a definite; standard and sell under a registered brand, and it is anticipated that the bulk of the supplies for New Zealand will come from these companies.
