IMPORTANT TO SODA-WATER MANUFACTURERS AND OTHERS. Applications win be received till 31st May, 1873, for the purchase of the exclusive use for the District of Cromwell, of HOGBBN’S PATENT APPARATUS, for supplying the Syrup in the manufacture of Aerated Beverages and other liquids, and STOPPER FOR BOTTLES. The Pump supplies the required quantity of syrup into each bottle at the same time as the bottle is filled with aerated water. It saves the labour of two men in bottling, and is also applicable to other purposes, such as drawing or measuring any required quantity of liquor, or forcing any required quantity of liquid to any place. The Stopper, for bottles containing aerated or gaseous liquids, such as Lemonade, Gingerbeer, or Sodawater, is self-acting. The stopper closes the bottle when it is filled by the pressure of the gaseous liquid from within, and the bottle is opened by applying pressure on the top of the stopper from without. The stoppers, being made of lignum or glass vitas, never wear out, are selfacting in stoppering when filled, do away entirely with cork, wire, and string, are inexpensive, &c. These patents are extensively used in England, America, and the Colonies. They can be seen in full working order on our premises in Dunedin and Oamaru. Also, FOR SALE, a No. 1 Hayward-Tylor Sodawater Machine. Apply to THOMSON & CO., Sole Manufacturers of the Patent Stoppered Aerated Waters, and Importers of Sodawater Machinery.
