From to-day, the prices of all grades of raw and refined sugars, golden syrup and treacle, have been reduced by 10/per ton, by the Colonial Sugar Refining Co. The prices of tabelts and icing sugar remain unaltered.
“Milk bars.arc multiplying in Melbourne,” said Mr W. E. Jackson, who returned to Wellington a few days ago. “When I was there last month there was a heat wave, and these milk bars, as they call them, were invariably crowded all day long. Iced milk and milk shakes, ice cream sodas, and all that sort of thing were in great demand. I heard that the introduction of the milk bars had meant an enormous increase in the consumption of milk. I should think it would be a good thing if they could get the same sort of thing going over here, as there must be a good deal of profit in selling a medium glass of milk at threepence a time.”
