NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

MESSRS; YATES 'AND CO., AUCKLAND. The name of Messrs l T ates and Co., seedsmen, of Sydney and Auckland, is wellknown throughout the Australasian colonies, and the seeds supplied by them are recognised by gardeners as being of the finest quality. Every care is taken by tlie firm to ensure the reliableness of the seeds, special precautions being taken each year to destroy the stock remaining over. The firm deal with experienced and careful growers only, and go to considerable trouble in the matter of testing everything as it comes into their stores. They grow most of the seeds on their own farms, having two farms at Mangare, near Auckland, devoted entirely to seed-growing and seed-testing, and another at Exeter, New Soutli AA'ales, where they grow bulbs, large quantities of seed potatoes, and have extensive testing grounds. These farms entail a very large expenditure, but tho firm’s customers reap the benefit by the improved quality of the seeds. They grow a largo number of their own specialities, and ai-e able to keep a careful watch on the quality of what they have to buy from other sources. Mr James McKee, Gladstone Road, is the local agent.

MESSRS GOLDSAVOETIIY AND COFUNERAL DIRECTORS AND EMBALMEES. It is incidental to the development of a district that the number of people engaged in the same business must increase, and as competition therefore ensues, the public are invited to choose between the competing firms. Their choice should lie with the firm that will give them the greatest amount of satisfaction at the most moderate price. This Messrs G. Goldsworthy, funeral directors and embalmors, of Grey street, claim to do, and a visit to their establishment convinces one of the fact that they arc exceptionally well prepared to give satisfactions to patrons. Tho business in which they have embarked is not of such a nature as to commend itself to the light-reading portion of tho community, but whether or not it is a subjoct that sooner or later must be considered by all. Messrs Goldsworthy and Co. have during tho last few months made extensive additions to their business, and tho large shipments of funeral requisites which they have recently received from London enable them to furnish funerals in a manner that cannot be improved upon even in the large cities. Everything appropriate to the occasion is provided, and no matter what religious body a person may belong to the resources of Messrs Goldsworthy and Co.'s establishment aro equal to the occasion. AVc have perused tho numerous testimonials which the firm havo received from members of the clergy in Australia and elsewhere, and these all speak of the highly-satisfactory manner in which the firm perform tho duties entrusted to them. Messrs Goldsworthy and Co. havo also excellent recommendations from tho Sydney firm of Messrs Charles, Kinsella and Co. Everything in keeping with the furnishing of funerals, from tho most ecomieal to the most elaborate, is provided, and the firm arc noted for their reasonable charges and terms. Messrs Goldsworthy and Co. havo undertaken the funerals of many notable persons, including that of the late Lord Duff. It is impossible to enumerate tlie vast stock of requisites of every kind necessary to the business which this firm possess, but patrons may accept our assurance that when the necessity arises their requirements will be fully met.
