THE WESTLAND COOL STORAGE and DAIRY Coy., Ltd. (Duly Incorporated under the Companies Act). CAPITAL £15,000. TO WESTLAND DAIRY FARMERS miiE PROVISIONAL DIRECTORS of Die above Company, reJ spect fully notify all whom it may concern, that the butter factory is to be erected in Hokitika, ami will be in readiness to commence operations for the coming season on the, Ist September, 1923. A few of the objects of the Company are as follows:--Butter or cheese making, cool storage ol goods and dairy produce for transmission to Christchurch markets, manufacture and sale of ice, fish and meat freezing, and the establishment of a modern city milk supply for the town of Hokitika. Such propositions are quite beyond the scope of the ordinary Co-operative dairy factory, more especially when Rss advantageously situated to important railway communication with densely populated centres, and are the outcome of careful expert consults!ation. Hokitika, with all its great possibilities is eminently suitable for the Company’s undertakings and is also ideally situated tor centralisation of Westland’s dairy and agricultural productions. Now that the tunnel is completed a new era of prosperity is assured for the coming “Taranaki of the South.” The Company will be managed partly on co-operative and partly on proprietary lines, the producer-shareholders holding the balance of power. Such a system whilst possessing all the advantages of co-operation will also additionally share with the initiative spirit so noticeable in all successful .proprietary concerns. It is almost unnecessary to state that profits accruing fiom the various operations and side lines will very materially help to increase the price to be paid for farm products, and centralisation, as is well known all the world over, considerably reduces the cost of production. It can be truly said that never in the history of farming in Westland has such’ a unique opportunity for superior co-operation in respect to factory matters, been presented to the settlers. It will be noticed the Company’s operations in addition to being in the best interests of the farmers, will benefit the district as a whole, and fill an urgent and long felt want. Respectful exertions arc now being made with a view leading (~ flic combination of all local country factories, withojit loss to their shareholders and suppliers. Such co-operation it is unnecessary to slate would make the scheme a greater success, and in addition fulfil the wishes of a vei.Y large majority of their financial supporters. Full information may be obtained on application to the following p'rovisiongl directors: — yiessrs W. A. Jamieson, R. Uaremirt and If. 11. Honk (Koiterangi). J. 11. Cropper (Waitaha), J. B. Douglas (Arahura), Jus. Thomson (Ross), D. J. Evans and J. J. Mclntosh (Hokitika). A corn- of tli.. prospectus mav be seen at the office of the. Registrar. H, T, PARRY, Managing Director.

GOOD PLUMBING PROVIDES GOOD HEALTH. IT IS FOLLY to make your path, lawn or garden before you have efficient drainage, truly laid with necessary traps properly vented. Your bath-room should bo the pride of your home. You may have the best fittings procurable, but if your waste pipes arc not properly trapped you are not only making your house a vent for drain or cesspit, in which they discharge, but you are risking your lives by inhaling the foul gases continually arising through your waste pipes. Von can replace a pipe or a piece of timber which may rot through defective plumbing, but you cannot replace a life which lr.iiv he lost through incompetent work. For the safety of travellers on trains they have eertilieated drivers; by sea, certificated captains. Your health is most important. Mhv not a certificated plumber?

TO THE MISTRESS OF THE HOUSE. DEAR. MADAM,— Do you over realise tho increased comfort to the entire household—yourself included—that would lie secured by the adoption of gas fires? Have you ever contemplated the amount of la!>our spent, to say nothing of tho time wasted, by the maids in carrying coals, cleaning grates laying fires, coaxing stubborn fires into a blaze and keeping them going when lighted? If you adopt gas fires you will not only lighten tho household work immensely but your rooms will be cleaner, healthier and more comfortable, lon can exactly control the heat required at any given time in any given room. Bedrooms become pleasanter (and safer) resorts in bitter weather. Ihe half hour's dressing for dinner, tho undressing at night after leaving a cosy sitting room, can he done in eomtort and safety—and at leisure. To economise in the gas consumed is easv. When, after dinner, you leave the'dining room out goes tho fire, to be lighted in the drawing room, or study 01" billiard room. And so throughout the (lav. the fire travels from room to room by the simple turning on and 0i Consider how habitable these gas fires make every room in the house . Half the dust in your living rooms conies from the coal fire— there is no dust with a gas fire. Xo work is entailed—no fire irons, coal scuttles or shovels to trouble about, no smoke, dirt or ashes to cause annoyance—no noisy poking 01 lop en ishiirn to disturb and irritate. That is whv the gas fire is ideal for the sick r °Certainly tho gas. fire is the housewife’s best friend—it’s only nval t gas cooker! We are dear Madam Yours faithfully, HOKITIKA GAS COY.. l-TO., Stafford Street,
