MOKE LAURELS' FOR THE THORNYCROFT MOTOR WAGON. Exhaustive tests in hill climbing and for gonoral utility with heavy loads upon rough roads, havo so proved tho superiority of tho Thornycroft Motor Wagon, as to induce the Wellington Meat Export Company to pnrchaso three of themj Tho tliroa wagons ordered are. all SO h.p. and will bo used for heavy carrying work. It will bo readily understood that during the summer months prompt and speedy carrying is particularly netjes* sary in tho meat business, and the fact that the Thornycroft has beon selected for tiis work is powerful evidence of its reliability and general superiority for quick delivory work. Another Thornycroft for Mr. James Martin has been built with a tipping wagon, and has gone up to Pongaroa to bo used for carrying metal. Many of tho largo commercial organisa-. tions of New Zealand aro users of tho Thornycroft, particularly where hca.vr work on country roads is required. Amongst these, tho Hawko's Bay Farmers, of Napier, and tho Dairy Milk Delivery Co., of Auckland, aro owners of Thornycroft Motor Wagons. Two Mail Contractors of Wanganui use them, and amongst municipal bodic9 this Motor has found great favour for Fire Brigade work, which is surely a severe test of tho Motor's "ever-readuiess" and dependability. Thornycrotfs are used by tho Fire Brigades in Christchurch, Auckland, Wellington, and Invercargill, in New Zealand; and Adolaido and Melbourne,' in' Australia. Possibly the strongest testimonial for Thornycroft efficiency that a business man could ask for is tho fact that of London, the largest carrying firm in tho world, use a fleet of twenty-six Thornycrofts in their delivery service. Tho agonts for Now Zealand aro A. Hatrick and Co., Wakefiold Streot, Wellington—Advt.
