A 'well-to-do.Dairy FARMER is usually a good one—well-to-do because ho is a practical man, who realises the great money-making qualities of modern dairying methods. Men like this make fortunes out of farming, and live in far greater comfort than the farmers who stick to the old-fashioned way of working their farms. A large amount of money can be saved annually by the use of a good Milking Machine, driven by an "Anderson" Oil Engine. This is a reliable engine in every respect, and is a great 'economiser of time and labour. Every "Anderson", is subjected to tho most rigid tests before leaving the works in Christchurch, so that you can place the utmost reliance upon your engine under all conditions. Instal a dependable "Anderson" Oil Engine with your Milking Plant. Audersons, Ltd., Christchurch. —Advt. I A WINNER OF COMPETITIONS.
