SUGAR FOR FEEDING BEES
DIFFICULTY OF TARIFF REBATE.
POSSIBLE FORM UNIFIT FOR HOME.
By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, July 19.
A deputation from the Beekeepers’ Association asked the Minister of Agriculture, the Hon. C. E. Macmillan, to try to arrange a rebate on the duty on sugar used for feeding bees. The Minister referred to the difficulty of ensuring that duty-free sugar would be confined to bee-feeding and said, he would investigate whether- it was possible, as Lord Bledisloe suggested, that the sugar could be supplied in a form unfit for home use.
