Butter prices and factory pay press contrast in Tableland
Kingston factories faced lower winter cream payments than Southern rivals. Despite few complaints, workers trust the Association to raise summer prices. January figures were weaker than southern plants, with pay 2d to 3d per shilling lower. If North price pressures persist, land values on the Tableland may fall due to higher production costs.
