Public Notices N' MoLEOD’S PATENT SAFETY TIMBER JACKS. Messrs. FRASER & TYNE, Phcenix Foundry, Auckland, are licensed to make and sell these light, powerful Jacks, so well suited to Bush and Sawmill work, or on board ship, Tu warehouses, at railway stations, or wherever heavy goods, timber, machinery, &c., have to be moved or handled. Owing to the superiority of, and demand for, these Jacks, Fraser and Tinne have provided costly machinery for their manufacture, and are now engaged in making 1000 of them. The parts of the Jacks that are subjected to the greatest amount of strain and wear are being wrought from their scrap furnace. The chief points of advantage in these Jacks are:—l. Their long thrust admitting, if necessary, of the wood or stalk being made shorter than usual, for small timber and sawmills. 2. That they do not run back under heavy weights, thus dispensing with the continual attendance of one hand, on whose care may often depend the safety of other hands. 3. Their reduced dimensions and weight reducing the danger of their removal from rolling logs, 4c., and making them so much more handy and convenient for carrying and working.
