T RY gIRKPATRICK 1 SPECIAL QUALITY FRESH FRUIT "X" jams: JAM PRIMO. Some time since we published a small paragraph on the unsatisfactory nature of much of the jam retailed in the Colony, Thia reached Messrs. Kirkpatrick 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. Two cases of assorted jams were sent to this office, with a request that we would thoroughly test the iam along with other brands, and give our opinion We are happy to state, frankly and fully, that we have been very much surprised, as prior to the receipt of Messrs. Kirkpatrick's gift wp were unaware that Nrw Zealand could boast of an industry of which it has so much reason to be proud. Thp various sorts of jam were tested hy a numbpr of persons, who compared the samples with other brands, and the general vprriirt is that not only a'e Messrs. Kirkpatriok's pronuctions far and hw»v better than any other New Zealand brand we can obiain, but tl cv ar<> superior to Kiifel i«-li jams in heitit? f'e^her. Tlie nean.st appionch to the excellence of the Nelson jam was that contained in tins bearing the name of a Tas« manian firm, but even in this comparison the Nelson article came out a long way best. We are pleased to hi able to give unstinted praise to a genuine lccil industry, trc product of which we can unreservedly rscommend to consumers. All of the many persons who have tfstpd thp '■■^niplps sue lou i in thpir praisp. und we mu>t unreservedly coner* nlatp Messrs Kukpatrirk and Co, upon turning out a genuinp fiuit "jam fi' to triacp the tables Jin i please thp palates <'f i hn miut luxurious Rnd fas idt> us. — Jhiich's Bay Herald, July 18. Samples cf Kiikpatrick and Co.'d ll X" brand of jam have been forwarded to us, and wo arc fiee to confers fiat they appear to be in every way excellent, and as they b2come better known in the local maikec w ill meet with much appreciation from the heads of households. Tbe maker asserts that none but the purest fiuits grown in Nels( l aie us<id in his manufactures, and we are content to accept that assurance.
