FARMERS OBJECT TO THE COUPON SYSTEM.
Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, December 3. A request that the Government prohibit the coupon system being applied to primary products was made to the Hon P. A. de la Perrelle by a deputation from the National Dairy Association to-day. It was contended that the application of the system to butter was costing the farmers a halfpenny per pound on their product, and that this cost was aggravating the already serious plight of the farmer. The Minister agreed that something would have to be done to counteract the coupons, and he intended to place the whole matter before Cabinet.
