 COOL STORES 



FsicilitieS are provided for producers and smaller exporters of the

 may be undertaken. The Government ownership and conduct of Cool 

 Stores places producers m an independent position, and, in addition, 

 preserves an open channel for the carrying on of the export trade in 

 perishable products. 



The Department of Agriculture will receive, 



handle, freeze, store, and ship Butter, Cheese, Eggs, Fruit, Meat, 

 Poultry, Rabbits and Hares, &c., for producers and exporters.
