NEW ZEALAND LAMB.

ADVERTISEMENT IN ENGLAND.

CARCASES FROM THE SHOWS.

As a further means of advertising the quality of prime New Zealand lamb, the Meat Producers' Board continues to make displays of special lambs from various agricultural and pastoral shows. By the last English mail reports have been received from the board's London manager regarding two displays of lambs from the Palmerston North and Poverty Bay shows. He stated that the 39 carcases from Palmerston arrived in excellent order, and were displayed on the stall of Messrs. Hayes, Paine and Knowlden, on the Smithfield Market. They were a beautiful lot of lambs, all splendid types of the best Down quality, and they arrived showing plenty of bloom. They created a great amount of interest on the market. He arranged that each butcher should have three lambs only, on condition that ho made a special show in his shop, displaying cards specially printed, thus making another advertisement. One of the butchers told him afterwards that the show in his shop created a great deal of attention, and ho was very pleased to have been able to arrange the display, as it helped his own trade as well. The lambs from Poverty Bay were exhibited on Messrs. H. S. Fitters' stall. They were quite a good lot, the only complaint being that they were rather heavy, and some of the carcases were inclined to be wasteful from the butchers' point of view. However, they made a very good show. , The Port Hobart had arrived, and he hoped to obtain delivery of the 39 carcases of lamb from the Royal Show. He had made arrangements to have these exhibits judged by three experts appointed by the British Incorporated Society of Meat Importers. LONDON WOOL SALES. OPENING RATES MAINTAINED.
