SUGAR SUPPLIES
FOB THE JAM SEASON
(By Telegraph—Special to The Mail)
CHRISTCHURCH, This Day
At? present the retail grocers have not got great stocks of sugar in hand, and a prominent retailer to-day advised tho public to get in supplies for the preserving season. He said that during the last six years there had always been a shortage at the timewhen the frhit was most plentiful, and it was impossible to say the same thing would not occur again this year. If people would take things quietly and get sugar ,lie said, there would be no need for a rush and rationing when the preserving season came. He regarded as significant the fact that two of the biggest boats on the East Coast running had been taken off because there was not sufficient cargo offering, and it might easily happen at a critical time m the jam making season that sugar supplies from the North might be held up.
