MEAT PRICES.
SHORTAGE ANTICIPATED,
The shortage of stock offered for sale at the Addington market on Wednesday has resulted in increased prices being charged by most Christchurch butchers. There is, however, one practical butcher who. by anticipating the shortage, is able to offer meat to his numerous clients at a considerable reduction on the prices charged by other butchers. High prices are not the rule at Mr T. W. Stephenson’s Gash Meal Market in Manchester Street, near Armagh Street, and housewives will be weil advised to call along and inspect his tempting display of the primest meat, which is offered at the most reasonable prices in Christchurch. ,Mr Stephenson has on hand 1600 sides ot mutton which he is prepared to sell to the public at the old price, viz., sides 6d per lb; forequarters 6d; legs and loins Sd; chops 8d and 9d; also lamb, beef and real.
Don’t pay high prices elsewhere, but bring the cash in your pockets and take your joint home with you. Also our smallgoods, pigs’ heads and trotters can’t be beaten. Now is the econorru,cal housekeeper to prove that it is possible to live on 50s a week. M o sell cheaper than tho Government can supply to tho butchers. 1
