CACKLE OR EGGS? We’ve heard plenty of. cackld, but we’re still waiting for the eggs. And we’ll go on waiting while the Internal Marketing Division rules the roost. Do you realise that even when you are lucky enough to get an egg the chances are that it will be a chilled egg from Australia? Due to the impossibly high price of feed, there is practically no margin of profit between cost of production and selling price. Poultry farmers are having to cut down or kill off their birds. Soon the egg will become a museum piece, a symbol of a forgotten age when New Zealanders could trade on the free market without restrictions. Remember in November Change the Government. —(N.Z. National Party).
