JAM PRIMO. ■♦ Some time since we published a smalt paragraph an tho unsatisfactory nature much of the jam*retailed In the coin iy. 'I i.in reached Messrs Klrkpatrlok ai»d Co,, of I'k.Yo;i r.- d they went to work m a vary praotloal fashion to psrove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the beet quality. T.vr-s cases of assorted jams were sent to this office, with a re- quoat that we would thoroughly teat the jam along with other brands, and give our opinion. We are happy to state, frapkly and fully that, we have bean very much surprised, aa prior to tho receipt of Messrs Klrkpatrlok'a gift we were unaware that Now Zealand ooqld boast of an |n- dUßtry of which It has bo much reason to be prund The various norta of jam were tented by a u umber of perßouß, who oomparod the anmpl»a with other brands, and the gt*ner«tl terdiot m ,h»t not, only aru MtßHra Kttkpatrluk'a ptoduotiuiig fat aud away better tban any other New Zealand brand we can obtain, but they ■re anperior to J^ngtiaa jama m being fresher. The nearest approaoh to the exoeilenoe of the Nelson jam was that oontained In tins bearing the name of a Taamanian firm, bat even In this com- parison tho Nelson article came out a long way best. We are pleased to be able to give unsilntod pralao to a genulho local industry, the product of which we can unreservedly reoommend to consumers. All of the many persona who have tested the aamplea ate loud In their prntae, and wo must unreservedly congratulate Moasre Klrkpatrlok and Oo.^npon turning out a genolno fruit jam fit to grace the tables and plottne tho palnUtn of tho most InxurltniH and fagtldloUß. — " Jiawke'B iiay Herald," , Inly lßth. Samples of Klrkpatrlok and Oo'n " X brand of jam havo been forwarded to us and we are free to oonfess that chey appear to be In every way excellent and as they become better known m the local market will meet with muoh appreciation from the beads of household*. The maker asserts that none but tha purest fruits grown In Nelson are used In bit manu- factures, and we ate content to accept that assurance. Certainly the j jamr possess a riohness and fresnueaa of flavor that bears that assertion out.— -Daned!
