TRADE WITH EAST CANADA
RECORD SHIPMENT OF BETTER. (By Wire.—Special to News). Auckland, Last Night. A second shipment of 111,000 boxes of butter will be loaded at Auckland for Eastern Canada on the steamer Raranga, which will leave here for New York, Halifax and London on October 29. In addition she will take 10,090 boxes for London. This large shipment provides an indication of Auckland’s growing trade in dairy produce with Eastern Canada, the amount of butter being forwarded almost equalling some of the largest shipments which have left the port for London. Among the largest consignments of butter loaded in Auckland for England were those of the Gallic, which took 137,090 boxes in 1920; Ruahine, which took 135,643 boxes in 192.5; and the Ayrshire, which took 128,550 boxes in 1919.
