To Contractors, Miners, Quatrymen, and Others. BW. MILLS has been appointed sole • agent in Wellington for the above Dynamite, and begs to call attention to its great strength, as compared with other explosives. After repeated trials by the largest contractors in the Australasian colonies, the results prove that “ Nobel's” Dynamite is the most powerful and economical, being fully 15 per cent, stronger than the Australian Lithofracteur. “ Nobel’s” Dynamite is unequalled for the following purposes :— Mining, quarrying, blasting in bard or soft, wet or dry rock, tunnelling, breaking up wrecks and sunken rocks, splitting tree stumps, boulders, &c., &c. No danger from tamping. Its safety has been completely demonstrated by the absence of accidents either in transit or storeage. It is insensible to heavy shocks, a percussion cap being required to develops its giant power. Printed instructions for using with every 51b. package. E. W. MILLS, Sole Agent, Wellington. THE AUSTRALIAN LITHOFRACTEUR & DYNAMITE COMPANY (KREBS’ PATENT). ARTHUR BRISCOE & CO. Having accepted the above Company’s agency for New Zealand, direct the attention of Railway and other Contractors, Miners, and Quarrymen to the enormous advantages derived from the use of these STRONGEST EXPLOSIVES MANUFACTURED.

The SUPERIOR STRENGTH of these COLONIAL EXPLOSIVES has been proved by experts to be 15 to 20 per cent, stronger than any imported Dynamite, while the present price renders it cheaper than blasting powder.
