NEW DAIRY MARKETS

I BIG FIELD IN AiViEHiCA. - ATLANTIC- COAST 'POSSI'SIIJTi ICS. V : , . j|| Since the topinieneement of the war very little daily produce has been sent from New Zealand to the markers or ' the Pacific Slope, but with the close of rtfie conflict there is little doubt that dominion exporters will agnin be ser-k----hsi:; ing new markets. Sir E. Clifton. win. p|'] was recently in America. :»s Omimi -- >sioner in Chart# of the New Zealand Court at the Panama Exhibition, took u: account of the possibilities of I future markets for New Zealand dairy : produce, Butte: from this Dominion, ' "he. told a Waikaro Times' reporter, was - in demand', aud appreciated in British | Columbia. The prospects there would be'>atisfactory »for some time to come, but not for many years, as British Columbia was rapidly developing a<jrieul|s tuir.lly. A greater quantity of butter arould he made there than in the past. I and. on the immediate easterti side of i the .Rockies "|he dairy industry was making ,rapid strides. There were now 'iX* lafge herds of dairy cattle in the provinces of . Saskatchewan, around E<l- - monton and Winjipec;. Railway T EansB portation was mere ancP more | expeditious, and therefore Xnv Zonland could hardly expect any groat of its market : n this direction. The indications were, in ;■ fact, that 1 the demand for our produce would diminish. There was, however. ■ ■■vsaid Sir .Clifton, an enormous market in the industrial Atlantic States, where "we could appeal to *he richest eommmir*atv in the world. Those were the people who.were making the monov a rd were in a position to purchase liberally Zealand's primary products. .New Zealand exporters' ■ should keep • f their. eyes, steadily fixed upon these * States, for therefrom a good deal of wealth could be drawn.
