CANTERBURY MEAT COMPANY
QUALITY OF LAMB FOR EXPORT. (Per United- Press Association.) CHRISTCHURCH. December 13. The annual general meeting of the Canterbury Frozen Meat Company was held to-day. Mr John Deans, chairman of directors, in moving the adoption of the annual report, said his recent visit to London had confirmed his opinion that in order to maintain the reputation built up for Canterbury lamb in the past they must pay far more attention to breeding lambs for export. Far too many badly-shaped, poorly-covered carcasses were being exported, and Smithfield opinion was that the quality of Canterbury lamb had gone back during the past few years. The annual report, which provided for a dividend of (J per cent, on the preference shares and 5 per cent, on the ordinary shares, was adopted. Messrs Herbert Elworthy and John Grigg were re-cleeted to the directorate.
