Mr Courtney is well advertising Taranaki in London. "Anglo-Australian," in the European Mail, writes:—"Passing down Holborn on April 211 was not a little struck with a somewhat novel and ingenious way of advertising the fertility and natural charms of at least one considerable section of the Britain of the South.
