T<s-u" certain extent this may bd-.so in the towns, but as j a rule dairy'fanners find help difficult to j obtain. However, the want is not felt j on the farms where Milking Machines ( and "Anderson" Oil Engines are instal- , led. If you let aii "Anderson" Engino ( work for 'you,' the labour famine need f cause you iio anxiety. One of these engines will run your plant most economically, and without giving any trouble. As a result your herd will be milked in less time than before, and at a big' saving of wages. "Anderson" Oil Engines are made in New Zealand, and are specially suited to dairy farm work. Order an "Anderson" with your Milking Plant.- Andersons, t Ltd., Christchui-cli.—Advt. i ( t
