SPECIAL EXHIBITS. AT THE WINTER SHOW.

A special feature of the Winter Show yesterday was the large number of working and "other exhibits staged by Taranaki tiadcmen. They formed a fine advertisement for the trade of 'the town and district. RED POST FURNISHING COY.

An exhibition which takes the eye at once is that of the Red Post Furnishing Coy. It is well staged, and the articles exposed arc made more attractive from their setting on artistic carpets of new design. The special feature of the exhibit is that it is all carried out in fumed oak, a fine class of material for furniture. The centre of attraction is a bedroom suite complete in this class of material and finished in first-class style in every detail. Then there is a diningroom suite in a style which though not ornate, bears the hall mark of' high grade quality. The Whole is prettily panelled in marquetenc, which pels oil' the plain fumed oak in nice effect. A roll-top desk, carried out in plain but useful style completes the exhibit, snd is in itself something oF a novelty in local manufacture. The Red Post Furnishing company has certainly put up a creditable performance, especially in view of the set-back of the recent fire in their premises.

ROYAL RUBY CYCLES. Mr Clinton. New Plymouth representative of .lames and Cilinan, has a striking display of Royal liiiln motor cycles all carried out in the finished style which is common to this popular distance eating machine. The, display comprises eight models, three, side car models, one racing machine, a two-stroke machine which is especially noticeable for cheapness and reliability. There are 5 h.p. and 4 !h.p. twin cylinder cycles, a. 4V a h.p. and a V/ s h.p. single cylinder machines. A particularly striking side-ear model is one finished in French grey, (I h.p., counter-shaft, two speed, gear box attached. There is nothing to beat the Royal Rnhy in speed, economy and reliability. This machine should he the ideal one for a man who wants some means of seeing the country in congenial vompany without the expense of keeping up a car. The exhibit is nicely staged, and each matfiinc looks as if it had stepped right out of tho proverbial band

box, but withal fit for much bard work on all classes of roads. There is something about the Royal Ruby as exhibited at tin: show which suggests speed and reliability. J. C. SPEDDINO, LTD.

The New Plymouth agency of J. C. ■Spcdding, Ltd., has a .motor cycle corner which tniics the eye and tickles the fancy. The chief attraction is a powerful looking Indian motor cycle, which looks as if it was only waiting an opportunity to slip away into space and leave a train of lesser lights following in its wake. The Indian machine is wellknown and popular throughout the district for speed and power, but this model is the latest of its kind and the first in New Zealand. It is n 7 li.p. self-starling | machine, with electric.lights and hooter, hung on a spring frame, The batteries are all self-charged and are guaranteed not to cause any trouble from start to finish. Then there is « Civil©, wliinh is England's best make of machine for sideear work. It is a useful-looking machine and its name is well and favorably known. Another feature is the Sparkbrook, a fine S h.p. English cycle with a J.A.P. engine. It is built on the right lines, and will carry a side car over any hill. A "family" motor cycle attracted much attention. It is fitted with a side car, and also an extra seat on the back of the cycle. The fact that it will carry three people docs not affect its speed and as popular as the family armchair. The exhibit, which is neatly set out, also includes a useful display, of cycle and motor accessories. E, GRIFFITHS AND 00.

Messrs E. Gritflihs and Co. are a firm who let .events speak.for themselves. They are agents lor the Alfa-Laval separators, and these have become widely known throughout Taranaki for some time. This year the firm has taken a stand in a prominent position, and the display of separators and steel churns would rejoice the heart of any farmer. Another special feature is an exhibition of Toko lime. Tliis is the only local limo on the market, most of the lime supply having been previously drawn from Napier. It is specially burnt and finely sieved. Moreover, it will run through any drill. Messrs Griffiths and Co.'3 exhibit i 9 on a par with the Ann's reputation for progress! veness. NEWTON KING. Mr. Newton King is to the fore as usual with a fine display of seeds, grasses and manures. The firm makes a special feature of pig and calf meals and crushed grain, the latter having l been treated on the firm's premises. The firm has for some time boon agents for Hurst's seeds, of which there is a fine assortment. A speciality is made this year of Garton's seeds, for which Mr. King has been appointed agent. Root crops are showing in profusion, and a fine specimen of chou mollier. Buda kale is also there, and fine specimens of the Swiss chard—a new green fodder plant like a glorified silver beet. There is nothing in the show to beat a display of mangolds, grown by Mr. Western, of Bel] Block. Melotte separators are well known in the district, and little need be said about them beyond the fact that the firm, who have just been appointed agents for them, make an effective showing of these and otiher dairy implements, lllie exhibit occupies considerable space, and attracts much attention.

M. 0. BUTCHER. In a prominent position is a fine, exhibit of vehicles built by Mr. M. 0. Butcher, of Gill street, coaohbuilder. A special feature is a trap built to the order of Mr. F. Mace, of Barrett road. It is stylishly built to carry three people, is mounted on rubber-tyred latestpattern wheels and the Tomkins roller bearings. It is carried out all through on the latest principles, and is proclaimed the lightest-draught gig ever turned out in the district. It has a springcushioned sliding seat, controlled by a' screw from the front of the scat. 'All the mountings are of solid nickel. There is also another nicely turned-out gig for sale, varnished throughout, body of Tasmanian blackwood, the seat of puketea, shafts of Australian spotted gum. A very stylish tarn-out is a trap built to the order of Mr. W. Boulton, for grocery delivery. W. JENICINSOJf & CO. I

The firm of W. Jenkinson and Co. has for years been well and favorably known throughout Taranaki for turning out high-class work in carriage-building, and t-lie exhibit of this firm by no means detracts from the glamor of this reputation. It is impossible to pass by the stand, for it is one of the most striking of its class. The space is enclosed with a novel design of carriage wheels—a striking eeffcti The display of glittering vehicles is very fine indeed, and they all bear the stamp of first-class workmanship, con pied with the judicious selection born of long experience. The exhibit attracted considerable attention, especially from the fanning community, for whom the firm has been specially catering for years. The vehicles displayed include one of the well-known "Taranaki" gigs, mounted on rubbertyred wheals, a Bradley gig, and three fanners' phaetons. These are all carried out in selected woods, and finished in the best style. LOXERGAN & PEARCE. A very nice display of tailoring goods is on exhibition by Messrs Lonergun and Pcarce. The firm has specialised in costumes and dress suitings. A special feature is the display of the new French velours, for which the firm has just been appointed agents in New Plymouth. This material is quite the latest in pure wool 'material, and is noted for'its durability. Tastefully displayed in ample space are three cost antes, « frock suit, a dress suits and riding breeches. An inspection of the wide range of work leaves no doubt in the mind of the visitor as to the advantage of the tailor-made article turned out by experts. The blocks which the firm has used for display purposes set oil' the garments admirably. The ladies' costumes, which are admittedly hard to cut, are a work of art, and should make a strong appeal to the fair sex. DUtfCAN' & DAVTES, LTD.

Messrs Duncan and Da vies, Ltd., have at their nursery the linesfc collection of native, plants in the. district—indeed, it would be hard to beat anywhere—so it was only to be expected that these 'should take a prominent place in their tastefully arranged and spacious exhibit. There are the purple Rangiora (extremely rare), kauri, mcryta Sinclair! (uka), adianthum phormosuni, and many others of the choicest specimens. The exhibit also includes some rare veronicas, grass trees, tano ka.pa, red- pines, and a host of other native plants. Many varieties of other plants are also shown.

If. COLLIER & CO. Messrs 11. Collier and Co. have an exhibition of musical instruments calculated to charm the heart of any that ever put foot inside a show. There are three models of Brinsmeads, one in a fumed oak ease, and also a Spacthe, which is in darker oak Wian the Brinsmeads. The fact that Messrs 0011-ier have sold Bring.

; meads to nearly all flic hulls on this I coast—Hi., .Majesty's Theatre ami the | Opera House, Wanganui, Paten. Kltrtiam, Stratford, Inglewood, Opunalco.'Wailara, Uruti, Awakino, Empire Theatre and Old People's ironic, Xew Plymouth—is a clear indication of the very high «)]iinion hold by leading musicians" for all those | pianos were selected liv committees of musicians. A specially interesting feature is a fascimile of the piano Messrs I.Tolui Jirinsmoad and Sons, London, made |to demonstrate the art of piano construction with at the recent Pianoforte Trades Exhibition, Olynvpin, London. As I practically every manufacturer took' part .in this exhibition this shows the high .opinion ihehl by pianoforte manufacturers |of ISrim-mead's productions. There is a model of ChappelUs in fumed oak case on view.

TIIK PA I MUCKS' MILKJXti MAUNNIC. The proposal to in.-ititnte a sv.-teiu of jw.vi"ff for milk on. grade , (! ,, :r „, i ikl .;,. to be ado-pled. Jt is going to prove a , very serums matter for many fanners tor, according to statements' made at nice ill; gatherings, the quality of milk supplied to cheese factories has deteriorated considerably. Under the new aystem the man witih a dirty milking machine, or, rather, with a machine that is carelessly .kept is going to pay tl W penalty. Obversely, the careful dairyman will come wit on top. It ibehovei the armor tJ„. n , to secure a machine -which ie or his wife or the hired man can Keep in order without trouble. The milking machine in the fewest parts, and get-at-able by the average man is sure. to appeal to farmers. And when tihat machine can be run by smaller power than any other-by a l'/,h.p. e n „) nc . f or a four-cow or six-cow plant—when it doeJ away with: all the paraphernalia of vacuum .tank, long vacuum pipe-lines, pusators and releasers, permits of the independent working of each bail, and also with the danger of contamination of null- during its* passage from the cow to the ultimate receptacle; and when this machine, cost onlv £l4O for a four-cow plant, it is' going to talk itself into favor. Such a machine ha* been invented, and is now on view and working at the New Plymouth Winter fehoiv. It is the Farmers' Milking Machine, and already its absolute simplicity has appealed' to many farmers, who inspected it minutely yesterday. Base of cleaning is certainly a great factor in its growing popularity, but the keen farmer will see in it very many other good points. He will appreciate the facility it gives Mm for testing individual | cows, for regulating the pressure and vacuum on each cow, the milk running of its own accord down the open steel valley (lidded, if necessary), and the very little bit of machinery about the thing, which is the most improved mechanical milking appliance to date. Messrs Collett and Co.. whose connection with the disposal of Taranaki butter and cheese in the Home and other markets brings them into direct contact with the dairy factories, and who, therefore, have to be. very chary 'about accepting agencies, have fully investigated the "Farmers','' and are fully ■satisfied to take over Ihe Taranaki agency. Yestp.rdav the X.Z. representative, 'Mr ,T. V,. Crnickrfiank, received a telegram that seven plants ' bad been booked up at the Hamilton show, and seven more sales were pemlins. showing that the farmers in the district where these plants are working in large numbers, are fully satisfied in their performance, in actual working., THE KIDD MACMXH.

Another striding working exhibit in a galaxy of whirring machinery is that of the Kidd Milking Machine Company, which occupies a prominent position. This machine is well known and favorably considered throughout Taranaki. It combines in its working some manifest advantages which should appeal to all students of scientific 'milking. The first point for it) is tjat its ite.it cup; is absolutely right. It is made of stout rubber increasing in thickness downwards. As a result, wften the pressure commences it follows down the nipple of the teat, and lioldsi on fill the teaUih emptied. It i s designed to sustain the pressure, and so get all the milk with the exception of the small quantity always obtained by stripping. No mechanical contrivance can possibly be supplied which acts as dees the *Kidd in imitating the action of the hand. Even the amount of pressure is -claimed to correspond to the average pressure applied by (flic hand-milker. The Ridd is> a scientific milker, designed to strengthen and improve the mammary or milkproducing system of the animal. This alone is a .*rudng feature. The engine with which it irs being worked is simple, economical and reliable, and the whole makes an attractive display.

THE STGRR]E MACHINE. Messrs J. Young and Co., of Wangaliui, attracted considerable attention witllii a wonlting exhibit of tile iStorrie Milking Machine run with the wellknown Bluckstone 4h.p. oil engine, with which 100 cows can be milked 'twice a day with oho tm of kerosene. One .-jpecial feature about the Storric milker, which commends itself perhaps above ali others, is the automatic milk releaser which enables the retention of a constant vacuum throughout-the shcu during tfiie process of milking. The milk is- conveyed through Jugh grade, cold drawn, tinned brass tubes, beautifully finished. Each section is joined by means of ground socket joints and winged nuts. With the patent releaser, single or double buckets can also be used, giving facilities for keeping the milk •of individual cows separately from the main suppiy, ami. testing it. The main points of the releaser are that the milk is taken from the cow to the can without handling; it passes over the cooler without any attention; it is strained before passing into this can; the can may be weighed and noted automatically; the milk is weigtied and delivered into the can ready for the waggon; the milk pipes are easily and quickly cleaned; the releaser is entirely automatic and requires 110 attention. The exhibit is well staged, and' cresttas a lavorable attention at 'once. If a good display goes for anything towards selling an article the company's exhibit should do much to this end. A.W.K. MILKING MACHINE. Standing out among a big display of milking machines, is 'the A.W.R. Company's (Mratford) stand. Tilie agents of this ■machine have spared no pains in staging their exhibit, and their industry hais been so far rewarded 1 that t.llcir stand from a spectacular point of view claims pride iof place. The great point claimed in favor of the A.W.R. Milking Machine is its simplicity. It can be driven either as a releasor or bucket machine. Ther.o is, despite its simplicity, nothing paltry about this machine, which is carried out ill the Jbest material, cSiiefly in copper. It is claimed for it that its release is absolutely devoid of back pressure on the cow's, teat. It is drirai by a Warwick 'benzine engine, which, is specially light lin consumption. This is of course a ! great feature ill a milking miu-iliino, ' and should recommend itself favorably ito the economical farmer. The engine is simply constructed, and requires no expert knowledge to drive There is certainly something about the appearance of the exhibit which appeals to
