A PUBLIC MARKET.
The Napier Telegraph is informed that a " Public Produce Market Company " will shortly be floated m Napier, having for its object the providing of ample means for country settlers getting rid of their produce m the most direct way. It is proposed to erect a large market hall,, and to hold sales of produce twice weekly for cash. The idea of the promoters is to bring the producers of butter, eggs, bacon, cheese, &c, into easy, and quick communication with storekeepers and householders without the intervention of agents. It is proposed to work the market m conjunction with the dairy farms now m existence m Hawkers Bay, and with the cheese, and butter factories now on the eye of commencing operations. Such a project deserves the most hearty support, and country settler# are likely to prove their appreciation of the scheme m a practical manner. We should like to see some similar scheme inaugurated m Falmerston, and believe it would greatly benefit the farmers m the vicinity. We shall deal with the subject more exhaustively m a future issue.
