A FINE STANDARD
SET BY OREPUKI FACTORY. [Per Press Association. — Copyright.l INVERCARGILL, This Day. Mr J. A. Morrison, the manager of the Orepuki factory, which won first prize in the cheese section of the Empire Dairy Show, London, has set a fine standard for his district. His is a small factory, its output being about .225 tons, and this was only the second time it had entered the London Dairy Show. Previously it was a proprietary concern, and it was not eligible until it became a co-operative factory over two years ago. Mr Morrison is a young manager, this being his' third year in that capacity. Previously he ■ was first assistant at Orepuki. This factory was not placed last year. Its success brings the province’s total of first placings up to seven out of nine championships awarded to date. The cheese championship carried with it a silver challenge cup, given by Lord Bledisloe, for the factory with the highest points from any part of the Empire, and a challenge cup for New Zealand factories, which was also given by Lard Bledisloe. Southland has won both for the three years during which they have competed.
