Motion is sold by the Greytown but.chers at a penny per lb less than the prices clmr'ned by the Mnsterton tradesmen. It is pretty evident that the Mnsterton butchers are not giving the consumer the benefit of the present low prices at which' sheep nro sold. Wo suppose it is human nature to raise the price of mutton when stock rates go up and forgot to lower it when they fall, but the public in this town have ut right to expect the benefit of a fall when they have paid in due course for a rise. We trust the Mnsterton butchers will consider their position and give the consumer hero fair terms.
