BOBBY CALF TRADE
UNSATISFACTORY BASIS By Telegraph—Press Association HAMILTON, June 23. “The methods adopted in the bobby calf trade are, as we ail know, open to serious criticism, and I am particularly anxious that the trade should be put on a more rationalised basis than it is at present,” said Mr Lee Martin at the National Dairy Conference today. “The Dairy Produce Board is making a careful survey of the whole position and will be shortly submitting definite proposals to me by which a rationalised objective can be reached. I feel that in this matter the Board is particularly suitable not only to formulate proposals but also to be given that measure of statutory power that would enable satisfactory internal organisation from the farmers’ standpoint to be in its hands, and something along that line appears to be the most reasonable line of approach to put the position on a more satisfactory basis than it is at present.”
