DONATION OF 100 GUINEAS.
EFFICIENCY IN PRODUCTION. Yes, it is of the utmost importance to the Empire just now. Upon this may (and .probably will) turn the whole outcome of the war. Foreseei'i? this many months ngo, we had the •insure and Ihe privilege of offering a donation of One Hundred Guineas' worth of Cooper's famous seeds (mostly grown liy us in New Zealand) for use to increase the supplies of fresh vegetables and cool salads of "our boys" in England, France and (or) by French peasants to help to mow their torn and bleeding country. A little help is better than a lot of pity. The Hon. the Minister of Defence, »Sir James Allen, kindly wrote us under date December I, 1910, saying: "I am very grateful indeed to' you and shall be only too pleased to accept your generous offer." We deemed it a privilege to be able to help. The seeds were forwarded next week and now thousands of packets of Cooper's Seeds of Success are 'being sown in France and England. Now to eonio nearer "home": It is time for us to prepare the ground for the coming Spring. Dig it up and allow tho earth to sweeten. Make- up your mind now what you are to sow—and titot you intend to have one of the best little gardens about this year; write for our catalogue. It will save your money and improve your own heaith as well as that of your family. You'll wr.nl. the seeds of the strongest germination and the finest quality, so that you must be sure to insist upon having Cooper's Seeds —"The Seods of Success." Practically all the leading merchants and stores in New Zealand stock them. If not stocked in your district write us. G2
