FOOD PRICES
RUSSIA BUYING TEA
(By Telegraph.)
(Special to "The Evening Post")
DUNEDJN, This Dfcy.
Several breakfast foods manufactured in New Zealand are likely to be re-, duced in price in about a week's time. The reason for. such expectation is the frugality of housewives. The good oldtime oatmeal is much more in-demand now that economy is forced upon the people.. Another move in the markets is actually operating. There is a\'tendency of a rise at Colombb of the better class of teas* Kussia is coming in as a buyer on a larger scale, and,! but for heavy stocks held in Englandt which supply that demand in the meantime, the Dominion would now be paying greatly increased prices for these teas.| It will take a while for England to clear her stocks and resume big buying in Colombo.
