DAIRY COMPANIES’ YEAR

FURTHER PAYMENTS TO BE MADE. “Suppliers have been advanced 7.42 d on butter account and 7.7 d on cheese account; a further payment of id on' butter and Id on cheese for the supply from November 1, 1932, to May 31, 1933, will be paid on July 20, and further payments will be made as produce is shipped and proceeds received,” states the report for the annual meeting of the Stratford Dairy Company on July 24. Values of butter and cheese in stock, the report’ adds, had not been hard to assess as a very large proportion had been sold f.o.b. and was only awaiting shipment. The quantity unsold was on the water and close to the market.

Financially the manufacture of casein had not shown any improvement on the previous season. During the year a new chum and cream vat were installed at the butter factory, and the iron fireman, which had been on trial, was taken over and paid for. The retiring directors were Messrs. L. E. Hann, T. T. Murray And M. Gernhoefer, who were eligible for re-election. The statistics for butter manufacture show lbs. milk received, 5,916,561 (last year 6,909,214); cream, 3,988,1111 b.

The New Plymouth company of Miss Elwyn Riley produced the pantomime “Aladdin,” which had such a good run at New Plymouth last week, at Stratford last night in aid of the Mayor’s relief fund. There was a crowded house at the town hall. The story, the setting, the dancing and the beauty and gaiety of the whole production captured the fancy of the Stratford audience even as it did that of the New Plymouth people- who saw it. The performance was on the same high plane. The pantomime was given in almost exactly the same form as at New Plymouth. The cast of last night’s performance was slightly changed, Miss Dorothy Cock ■ taking the part of the princess owing to the indisposition of Miss Pat Stanton. Miss Cock’s place as Slave of the Ring was filled by Miss Doreen Belcher. Despite the fact that the change had to be made at a few hours’ notice the new ' princess and slave of the ring both performed flawlessly. The orchestra was slightly changed, Mr. and Miss Rogers and Mr. L. Ward taking part. Mr. Symes was not present. I At the conclusion of the performance I Miss Mollie McMillan presented Mrs. and Miss Reilly with bouquets. The Mayor (Mr. J. ’W. McMillan) thanked Mrs. and Miss Reilly, Mr. T. Boyle, Mrs Bowler and others responsible, for their assistance to the Mayor’s relief fund. The receipts were over £4O and the profit will be probably over £2O. ELTHAM LADIES’ GOLF. MRS.
