TRADE WITH THE EAST.
New Zealander Impressed With Possibilities. (Special to the “ Star.”) DUNEDIN, February 25. A Dunedin business man, Mr Andrew M’Kinnon, is impressed with the argument for the opening up of trade between New Zealand and the East. While in Australia recently, Mr M’Kinnon found that the Australian Glass Co. was not only making glass at its Sydney works, but putting up in glass jars quantities of sheeps’ tongues for shipment to the East. For tongues so placed on the market there is a steady demand. Eastern people prefer goods in glass to those in tins. To the question: “Why cannot New Zealanders follow the example thus set and export to the East tongues and other pressed meats?” Mr M’Kinnon says he has been unable to obtain any satisfactory reply. Direct trade with the East is surely possible. That New Zealand tongues are in favour on the market is fully proved. The New Zealand Trade Commissioner in Sydney had an inquiry from Melbourne a few weeks ago for some tons of that commodity.
