SALES IN SCOTLAND

BUTTER FROM NEW ZEALAND. INCREASE DURING SUMMER. An increase in sales of New Zealand butter in Scotland. is indicated m advice received by the Te Awamutu Cooperative Dairy Company, Ltd., from its agent at Glasgow. Also, high praise of the Dominion product is expressed in a letter, dated July 22, received by the company as follows;— “During this hot spell we are careful to drive your butter straight from the ship’s side to cold store As a remit, it is always in perfect condition and we are glad to be able to induce en increased number of buyers to handle New Zealand butter consistently throughout the whole summer, instead of transferring, as many still do, to Irish or Continental butters during the summer months. • “The quality of your New Zealand butter just now is splendid. The colour is exactly right and the flavour and texture, in our opinion, make it altogether the outstanding quality butter on the whole market. Some day we hope your technical experts will find means to overcome the difficulty of the high-coloured butter in the opening months of the season. If we could open the season with butter of the colour and qcality of that which now arrives, there is no butter which could compete with our New Zealand shipments.” In response to a request made to retail grocers in Scotland receiving the company's butter, several interesting comments have been received by the company. “We have a ready sale for New Zealand butter,” a Rothesay groser states. “I find this butter far superior to Australian, and it sells against Danish any day. Furthermore, our customers desire to buy it aplenty.” Another grocer writes: “I always maintain that it is the best I sell. There is more body in it, so that it stands the weather better than Danish or Irish creamery.”
