The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 23

Vinegar

Vinegar.

The great extent to which vinegar is used by colonists leads to the reflection that the manufacture should be attached to every large brewery in New Zealand. Vinegar—or "alegar," as it is sometimes termed in Great Britain, when the works are attached to beer-making—has already been made in some considerable-quantity by Messrs. Kempthorne, Prosser, and Co., of Dunedin; but, as 92,133 gallons were imported last year, it is evident that page 31 the fringe of the industry has scarcely been touched. In this case also a bonus might be offered, in order to encourage brewers and others in procuring the necessary machinery and labour. The duty is already sufficiently protectionist.
