NEW ZEALAND BUTTER

PROMINENCE IN BRITAIN “It is very gratifying to observe the prominence given to New Zealand butter in a very large number of tho best shops in England,” said Mr J. Heaton' Barker, who returned by iho Maunganui yesterday after seven months in Britain. Mr Barker said that on one occasion, when inquiring about the origin of some butter he purchased at the Devonshire village of Babbacombe, the shopkeeper produced a well-known Auckland brand. In a large number of stores throughout Britain notices were displayed informing customers that Soviet butter was not on sale. During his stay in Britain, Mr Barker addressed the annual conference of the Scottish Grocers’ Federation on the subject of the New Zealand dairying industry. He was also accorded the privilege of attending a meeting of the grocers’ advisory committee in connection with tho Empire Marketing League, held in the Royal Agricultural Hall, Islington, during the progress of the Grocers’ Exhibition. Evidence of the league’s good work was to be seen c-n every hand.
