In 1902 the Government offered prizes for the best plans of a cowshed and silo. There were 38 entries, but that the desired result was not achieved is-apparent from the decision of the judges, which was short and to the point. It read, “We have to report having gone through the plans, but regret to say that in our opinion none of them are of sufficient merit to warrant their acceptance as a guide to settlers as to what a cowshed or silo should be, therefore none of the competitors are entitled to the bonus.” No prize was awarded.
It was in the year 1918 that the oblong box was made compulsory; as an export | package for New Zealand butter.
