PATEA BUTTER CARGO
SHIPMENT AT NEW PLYMOUTH. MAHIA TO TAKE 80 TONS.

The opportune arrival of the Mahia at New Plymouth weu responsible for the shipment of Patea butter. Dairy produce from the grading works at Patea has chiefly been shipped to Wellington in the past, and there transferred to overseas liners. The stateipent of dairy produce allotments last issued by the New Zealand Dairy Produce Board contains no mention of a butter cargo for the Mahia at New Plymouth. Her New Plymouth allotment was 10,000 crates of cheese and 5000 freight carcases of meat. The butter will ..e loaded directly into the overseas liner to-day as the Hawera will draw alongside the Mahia.
