The Dairy Industry

The Dairy Industry

has contributed its quota to the increase, in the value of exports of butter to the extent of 56,178 l., though cheese shows a slight decline, the season having opened well, but afterwards becoming disappointing. On 1st July there were 38 dairy factories in New Zealand, with a paid-up capital of 32,341 l., and a capacity daily of 53,353 gallons. Of these factories 30 are situated in the South Island, and, being mostly fitted up with the best and latest appliances, will, I trust, continue to turn out that uniformity of colour and quality that must be strictly adhered to if we wish to retain our hold on the London and Australian markets.
