NEW ZEALAND BUTTER.
IN USE IN CHINA. SPREAD OF WESTERN IDEAS. (By Telegraph.—Special to Standard.) AUCKLAND, May 21. New Zealand butter is not unknown in China, even among the Chinese, according to Mr N. A. Villonbaki, who arrived at Auckland by the Maunganui. Mr Villonbaki has been in business in China for some years. A recent development in the spread of Western ideas was the presence of bread and butter and cheese at Chinese dinner parties, he said in an interview to-day. The consumption of butter and cheese was growing. In consequence, New Zealand butter was not as easy to get as Australian, as it was generally imported to China through Vancouver. Before long a direct shipping service between New Zealand and China would have to come.
