Jam Primo. © Some time since we jmblisiied a small paragraph on the uaaatief actory nature of much of the jam . retailed in the Colony. This reached Messrs Kirkpatrick and Co., of Nelson, and they went to work in a very practical fashion to prove that the jama manufactured by the firm were of the best quality. Two cases of assorted jama were sent to this office, with a request that wo would thoroughly test the jam along with, other brands, and give our opinion. Weara happy to state, frankly and fully that wo nav c hesn very much enrprised/~as prior to the receipt of Mesßto*KirkpatrfcKgif bwe"wero unaware that New Zealand coukljga3tofan industry of which°lb"has bo much reason to be proud. The~vaiious eorts"of jamjivere tested byanumberof who p.ompßrpd the samples with other brands, ana the general verdict is that not only are Messrs Kirkp'ttrick'a productions lar and a.way better than any other U«w Zealand branda _we can obtain, hub they are superior to iliuglish janiß in being fresher. The nearest approach to the excellence of the Nelson jam was contained in tins bearing the namo of n, Tasmanian firm, but j even in this comparison the Nelson article came ont a long way best. "We are pleased to be able to give unstinted praise to a genuine local industry, the product of which wo can unreservedly recommend to consumers. All of the many persona who have tested the Bfttnplea are loud in their praise, tuid wo musS unreservedly congratulate Messrs Kirkrntrick and (Jo. upoc turning oat a genuine limt jam tit to tjrace the tables and plcaso the palates of |_the^ ra osVlnxurioiis" an3""f "artidioaa^"Hawke's Bay HeraTd? r Jiily'lsr ~ "~ Samples of Hirkpatrick and Co.'s "K " j brand of jam have been forwarded to us, and we ate fiee to confess that they appear to be in every way excellent, and as they become better known in tho local market will meet with much appreciation from the heads of households.
