JAM PRIMO. ♦ Some time since we published a small paragraph on the unsatisfactory nature much of the jam retailed m the ooloiy. This reaohed Messrs Klrkpatrlok and Co., of Nelson, and they went to work In a very praotioal fashion to prove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the beat quality. 3Vi/ caaea of assorted jams were sent to this office, with a re- queat that we would thoroughly test the j»m along with other brands, and give our opinion. We are happy to state, frankly and fully that we have been very mnoh aarprlaed, aa prior to the receipt of Meaara Klrkpatrlok'a gift we were nnaware that New Zealand could boaat of aa in- dustry of whlob it has so muoh reason to be proud. The various aorta of jam were tested by a number of peraona, who compared the samples with other brands, nod the general verdict m that not only are Measra Klrkpatrlck'a productions far &hd away better than any other' Hew Zealand brand we can obtain, bat they are nnpenor to English jama In being fresher. 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 Nelson article came out a long way best. We are pleased to be able to give unatlnted praise to a genuine local industry, the product of which we can unreservedly recomiaend to oonsnmers. All of the many persons who have tested the earn plea are loud iv their pralea, and we mnat unreservedly congratulate Meeirß Klrkpatrlok and 00. upon turning out a genuine fruit jam fit to grace the tables and please the palates of the most luxurious and fastidious. — " Hawke's .bay Herald," . I uly 18th. Samples of Klrkp»trlok 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 as they become better known m the local market will meet with muoh appreciation from the heads of household*. The maker asserts that none but the pureat fruits grown m Nelson are uaed m his manu- factures, and we ate content to aooapt that assurance. Certainly the jamr poifless a riohneas and freshueaa of flavor that bears that aßaettton out.— -Paned,!"
