T RY gl RKPATRICjK' SPECIAL QUALITY FRESH FRUIT "X" JAMS. jam primo.; j Some time since we published a small paragraph on the unsatisfactory nature of much of the jam retailed in the Colony, This reached Messrs. Kiikpatrick and Co., of Nelson, and they went to work in a very practical fashion to prove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the best quality. Iwo cases of assorted jama were sent to this office, with a request that we would thoroughly test the jam along with other brands, and give our opinion We are happy to state, frankly and fully, that we have been very much purpri^ed. ss trior to the receipt of Messrs. Kirkpatnck's gift we were unaware that New Zealand could boast of an industry of which it has so much reason to be proud. The various sorts of jam were tested by a number of persons, who compared the samples with other brands, and the general verdict is that not only are Messrs. Kirkpatnck's productions fai and awnv better than any other New Zealand brand we can ob'ain, but they are .superior to English jama in rcitig hc-hor. The neau st approach to the excellence of the NtUon jam was ibat contained in tins biaring the name of a Tasmaman firm, but even in this comp.iiison the Nelson article came out a long way best. We are pleased to 1)2 able to give unstinted praise to a genuine locil lruluttn, tic pioduct of which we can uiin.su vedly recommend to consumers. All of the many persons who have t< stcd the samples are loud in their praipc. and we nm«t unresei vedly onuera. ulate Messis.
