A petition was presented to the House to-day by Mr Wilkinson (Egmont) from 109 dairy companies of Taranaki requesting Parliament to remove t!!c import dut es on wheat and on stock foods. This, states the petition, would materially help fanners generally to improve their position, as those duties arc materially interfering with fanners' development of an export trade in bacon, pork, and eggs, which is desirable in view of tho low prices of other produce.
