JAM PRIMO. ♦ Some time Bince we published a smal< paragraph en the unsatisfactory nature much of the jam retailed m the colony. This reached Messrs Klrkpatrlck atid Go., , of Nelson, and they went to work In a very practical fashion to prove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the beßt quality. Tw^ cases of assorted jams were sent to this offiae, with a re- quest that we would thoroughly test the j»m along with other brands, and give our i opinion. vVe are happy to state, frankly i and fully tna'. we have been very much surprised, as prior to the receipt of ; Messrs Kirkpatrlok'a gift we were nnaware tbat JSew Zaaland ooald boast of an \n~ duatry of which it has bo much reason io • be proud. The various aorta of jam were , tested by a number of persons, who compared the aamplafl with other brands, • and iho general verdict la .h>a not only are M^bbtb Knkpatrlck'a productions far and away better than any other .New Zealand brand we can obtain, bnl they 1 are superior to Jbingllßh jama m being fresher. The neareßt approaoh to the - excellence of the Nelson jam was that E contained In tins bearing the name of a Taamanlan firm, but even m this com- parison the,Nelaon article came out a long way beßt. We are pleased to be able to give unstinted praise to a genuine local h industry, the product of which we can • unreservedly recommend to consumers. • All of the many persons \yho have tested the Bamplea are loud to their praiaa, and we must unreaervedly congratulate Messrs Klrkpatrlck and 00. upon turning ont a genuine fruit jam fit to grace ihe tables and please the palates of the moat luxnriuDß aridfaßtidiouß.- — ** Mawko'a Bay Hort»ld,".luly 18th. Samples of Kirkpatrlok and Go's " X - brand of jam have been forwarded to us and we are free to confess that they appear to be m every way excellent and n as they become better known m the looal 3 " market will meet with much appreciation from the heads of household*, The maker asserts that none but the purest fruits grown m Nelßon are used m bis manu- factures, and we are content to accept | that assurance.
