JAM PRIMO. ♦ Some time since we published a small paragraph en the unsatisfactory nature much of the jam retailed In the colony, ThlH reached Messrs Klrkpatrlok BLd 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. Tw*> cases of assorted jama were sent to this office, with a re- quest that we would thoroughly test the jam along with other brands, and give our opinion. vVe are happy to Btate, frankjy and fully that we have beon very moon surprised, aa prior to the receipt of Meosrß Klrkpatrlok'a gift we were unaware that .New Zealand oonid boast of an ]u- duatry of which it has bo much reaaon to be ptond. The various Bortß of jam were teßted by a number of persous, who compared the samples with other brands, and the general verdiot la that not only are MeBBtB Kttkpatrtok's productions far aud away better than any other Hew Zealand brand we can obtain, bat they are aaperior to JflngHan jams m being fresher. The nearest approach to the exoellenoa of the Nelson jam was that contained m tins bearing the name of a Taamanlan firm, but even In this oom- parison the Nelson artlole came out a long way best. We are pleased to be able to give unstinted praise to a genuine looal industry, the product of whioh we can unreservedly recommend to oonsnmers. All of the many persons who have tested the Bamplea are loud tn their pratea, and we mnßt unreservedly congratulate Messrs Klrkpatrlok and Co. upon turning oat a genolno fruit jam fit to grace the tables and pleaee the palaten of the moat luxnriuaß and fastidious. — " Hawke'a if»y Herald," -July IBtn. Samples of Kirkpatrlok and Cob " X brand of jam have been forwarded to us and we are free to confess that they appeavr to be In every way excellent and aa they become better known la tho local market will meet with muoh appreciation from the heads of household!. The maker asserts that none but the purest fruits grown In Nelson are uaed In bis manu- factures, and we ate content to accept that assurance. Certainly the jamr ! poaßeaa a richness ana f reßtn.esa ot flavor ' that bears that assertion out. — Hhnedt ■
