BUTTER'S COMPETITOR
HIGH PRICES GIVE MARGARINE ITS i CHANCE. (Received May 23, 9-20 p.m.) MELBOURNE, May 23. At a conference of representatives of butter factories in this State,' Mr "Wyatt, manager of a Gippsland company, dealing with the enormous increase in the use of margarine in England owing to the high price of butter, said the margarine-makers had erected the manufacture into a science—their methods were so proficient. He announced that margarine, mixed with New Zealand, Australian, or Danish butter would take the place of pure butters. There was, however, no need to fear this with the price of butter at 104 sto 110 s per cwt.; but when it rose to 126, then margarine would come into competition with the dairy product.
