WINTER SHOW AND RACING CARNIVAL

DAIRY PRODUCE JUDGING

OMM WINS CHAMPIONSHIP

HIGH QUALITY OF EXHIBITS

With a total of 284 entries in the factory butter and cheese section of this year’s show, the Otago A. and P. Society has once again justified its claim to having the best winter exhibition of dairy produce in the Dominion. Added to numerically strong entries is a standard of quality which gives the display dis-

tinction as well as bulk. Cheese entries were greatly increased

this year, and the butter section more than held its own.

' The cheese championship was won by the Oraimi Co-operative Dairy Factory Company, and the Cunningham Memorial Shield, the blue riband in the butter section, was won by the Canterbury Central Co-operative Dairy Company. Competition was keen in all classes, entries being forward £rom both islands. JUDGES’ COMMENTS. The judges were of the opinion that the butter exhibits fully New Zealand’s reputation for high quality. The body was of a high standard, and flavour had held up well con- % sidering the lengthy period the butter had been in store. Entries in the cheese section showed a large increase over

.. those of recent years, keen competition taking place in each class. Quality was a dominant feature, flavours being sound, while the bodies were smooth and pleasing. Slit openness was not so much in evidence as at some recent shows. The general appearance of the cheese, however, was not so attractive as usual, mould growth showing in the rinds, while cracked rinds were noted in some exhibits.
