Thiß reached Messrs Klrkpatrlck and Co., of Nelson, and they went to work m a very practical fashion to prove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the best quality.

We are happy to Btate, frankly and fully that we nave been vory much surprised, as prior to the receipt of Messrs Klrkpatrlck'a gift we wore nnaware that .New Zealand could boast of an In- dustry of which It has so mnoh reason to be proud.

The nearest approach to the excellence of the Nelson jam was that contained In tins bearing the name of a Tasmanlan firm, but even In this com- parison the,Nelaon article came out a long way best. We are pleased to be able to . give unstinted praise to a genuine local industry, the product of which we oan unreservedly reoommend to consumers.
