OUR BUTTER IN LONDON.
(To the Editor.)
Sir,—Sir James Parr assures us that traders are loyally supporting the New Zealand farmers. A short study of the market report shows that foreign butters—i.e., Danish, Dutch, Finnish and Argentine—command better prices, while friendly Bolsheviks from Siberia sell their butter on a par with ours. Private advices by the latest English mail are that Anchor brand butter at Selfridges costs 2s 2d a pound retail. eW get Is Id a pound for our butter-fat. This extraordinary loyalty—nothing short of insult —is being answered by a slow-growing determination that retaliation is necessary and that the time has come for a cessation of all preference, sentimental or actual, for English goods.—i I am, etc., SUPPLIER. , Te Kowhai, April 12. \
