It is right that certain things which cannot" be-produced in New Zealand'ehould be purchased, in other countries, and vice versa, but when it comes to a: collision with Dominion manufacturers reciprocity should give way to patriotism.

There is no hotter engino on the market, for general farm use, particularly for driving Milking Machines, than tho "Anderson." Moreover, the makers are within easy reaoh, and when : necessary sjiare parts can be supplied at short notice. Order an "Anderson" with your Milking Machine and keen your money in the Dominion.
