DAIRY COMPETITIONS.

BUTTER AND CHEESE, SUPERFINE, STANDARD. The competitions in dairy produce attracted widespread interest, the entries in factory butter and cheese coming from all \ parts of the,province. The classes for; farmers' butter also elicited keen comjetition, particularly among farmers' wives, residont within fairly easy reach of the city. | Mr. A. A. Thornton, Government dairy , produce grader, referring to the factory! exhibits, said: — The butter and cheese exhibit is a unique one in so much as it is representa-1 tive of dairy produce valued at approximately half a million, which forcibly demonstrates the dairying potentialities of this province. The section comprises 36 exhibits and this represents as many different factories, hailing from Kaitaia, in the Far North, to the King Country, in the South, the Waikato and the Bay \ of Plenty. In the regulations governing the show entries the butter and cheese had to bo picked by the show officials from the routine consignments entering the grading stores for export. Thus each box of butter was taken at random from a churning, and a case of cheese was similarly treated. The exhibits having been taken in this manner are indicative of the everyday quality of butter and cheese coming forward for export, and j are not in the same position as produce I made especially for show exhibit. j In the op\mon of the judges the aver- j ago quality of the exhibits was very high,, and in fact practically superfine. I The uniformity of make, colour, salting, and general finish Was splendid and showed great credit to the individual makers. If the quality of export cheese of this country was equal to the average quality of the placed cheese there would be little to fear from outside competition on Home markets'. Tho judging was carried out by the Auckland members of the port grading staff of the dairy division. Following are tho awards:— BUTTER AWARDS. Points. Ist—Whangaroa Co-op.

The first exhibit on the right inside the motor show avenue is an all-British display by the New Zealand Express Company, sole agents for Dennis Brothers' motor lorries and Ransomes, Simms, and Jeffries' electric and steam trucks. The display claims no pretentiousness as. to style, but its salient feature is service and economy. The name of Dennis is always coupled in the mind of the public with ' those magnificent firo brigade motors in Auckland and throughout New Zealand. And surely if any purpose demands the best and most reliable motor lorry it is the fire fighting outfit. This year alone live new Dennis fire engines have been sold to various brigades in the Dominion, and there is a constant demand. But the war still further proved the worth of this truck. The- great manufacturers of the world vied with each other in produoing motor trucks to stand up to the terrific strain • imposed by war conditions, but after experience with every make the Imperial Army and the Now Zealand Delence Department decided to standardise on tho Dennis. The manufacturers of Dennis trucks have not at any time reconditioned or offered for sale trucks used during tho war, so there is no danger of purchasers getting, by mistake for a new vehicle a truck having already performed strenuous service. The New Zealand Defence Department fully realised the value of their Dennis lorries at the end of tho war and brought them back to the Dominion. Sonio ol these machines are still in daily use in Auckland, their smooth running and reliability arousing favour able comment on all sides. Although the pvices of British motor lorries vary hut ■little in England the price of the Dennis truck in New Zealand is considerably lower than other makes. Another feature of interest to thoso concerned with transport is tho electric truck and scooter. The former, all-British work, including the batteries, has a remarkable record for economy and power. It will run 45 miles on a battery charge per day for a year for £26 cost of motive power. The scgoter, a familiar sight in the city streets, carres tons of goods from wharf to warehouse or from, agency to customers. By its facility in traffic and low running cost it eclipses other trucks, and for easy and quick handling of goods its low platform offers exceptional attractions. THE "LOCK-GRIP" WIRE STRAINEE-. No farmer oi' landowner can rest assured that his fences will be kept in repair and his valuable stock protected unless he 'has an efficient wire strainer, such as the "Lock-Grip," which is being exhibited at the Show by Rogers and Fitchett, of 28 and 29, Richards-Upton Building, Customs Street East. Invented by an Australian, this strong compact wire strainer is now widely used in the Commonwealth, in fact, over 100 a month are sold in the New Sout/h Wales Agency. The "Lock-Grip" Strainer does tot depend on teeth to do its straining. It gets an absolute lock on the wfte--a grip that will not slip oven if the wire be greased or oiled—and it does this without injury to soft copper telephone wire, iron or steel wire. It is manufactured of drop forgings'and steel'stampings throughout, and is unbreakable. It also makes a light and handy tool to carry in a car, and with a length of " Buffalo " wire will extricate a motor from almost any difficulty. The firm are also agents for.'Brunton's "Buffalo." galvanised fencing wire and wire ropes, which' were used by the British Navy throughout the war, surely the highest credential to its quality.
