SHOU J. CHEN,
Manager, Hong Kong, 5th March, 1931.
The public alarni concerning the hygienic properties of Russian but- ter is, he declared, likely to have a | cerious effect on the general con-
sumption of butter in Britain,
"People become, anxious," he stated, "and, when they are an- able to discover the exact source of blended butter which is being offered for sale, they prefer to buy none at all. Like any other but- ter, the purity of Russian butter depends on the particular condi- tions under which it is turned out. All of it may be perfectly healthy, but no one can ascertain under what conditions it is produced."
I seem to see, the elder parrots. sitting round and saying: "You can rely upon us. Every day-for-thirty- years, regardless of the weather, we have 'anid, "What a lovely morning!" But this is a bad bird. He saye one thing one day, and something else the next."-Mr. J. M. Keynes,
