New Zealand Produce.
Telegraph. Press Association. Copyright. Wellington, Noyeinber 23 The Agricultural Department have received a report from iVlr H- C Cameron, Inspector of New Zealand produce in London, dated the 20th ultimo, in which he says every thing points to a scarcity in Great Britain of the choicest qualities of butter. Tbe " make" at Home and on the continent is short, aud as cold and and winte-y weather has set in the quantity that will come from Australia should not frighten holders. He does not anticipate any further reduction in prices. Many people, he explains, are of opinion that there will be higher quos tations for cheese, but of this he is doubtful. He adds that the largest cons sumers of cheese are the middle and working classes, and when it gets high in price the consumption suffers at once. The working classes can get meat so cheap now- a days, that they are not all dependant on cfeeese, and only use it when it is reasonably cheap. .
