RENT’S JpULLOVER JJATS. NEW SELECTION, FROM GLOVERS MANUFACTORY, AT COWAN & FOSTERS THE BRUNNER COAL COMPANY. npHE following will prove the superiority X of the Company’s Coal: — Main South Road, Timaru, Jan 14, 1881. To the Manager of the Brunner Coal Company. Sib,—l have carefully tried the coal got from you and I find it quite superior to Newcastle. It gives more heat, creates less smut, and is altogether superior to any colonial coal I have yet tried. There is another advantage in your coal deserving of being pointed out, and worthy the attention of housekeepers. In using the slack for a slow tire it cakes and runs into one mass, so that it can be burned with profit and economy to the last cinder. lam confident that, when the Brunner Coal is more generally known it will be the most popular fuel for household and other uses imported into Timaru or elsewhere. William Ingram. Sophia Street, January 13, 1881. 1 have given the half-ton of coal sent to me a fair trial, and find it far superior to any coal I have ever used for smithy work. It burns clean, never fails for blasting or other purposes, and is a grand beating coal. James Henderson, Blacksmith. On Tuesday, Jan. 11, the Dunedin Corporation accepted a tender for the supply of Brunner coal for the Dunedin Gas Works, during the year, at 2s 6d per ton over the price of best Newcastle coal.
