DISPLAY OF AMBURY'S, LTD.

j PURE MILK AXD BUTTER

VALUE OF HYGIENIC METHODS, i I

A particularly attractive stall on the ' ground lloor at the Winter Exhibition • houses the display of milk and butter of ] Ambury's, Limited. It is not often that \ a display of dairy products is noticeable , for its attractive appearance, but. in re- i gtird to Ambury's, the feature that at once arrests attention is the distinct- j ively artistic attractiveness of the stall, j More important, however, than appear- ! ance to the general public are the indivi- j dual exhibits, the chief of which is fresh milk, bottled and ready for delivery fo customers. To those unaccustomed to the system of delivering a city milk supply in eh iselv-senled bottles, a glanep at the stall is sufficient to indicate,.that I it must be immensely superior to the old ] method. From a livgienic point of view ; it is justly claimed that the bottle delivery is as nearly perfect as po* ? ible. I The bodies, which are of different sizes | to suit the requirements of housewives, ] arc all sterilised before being " filled, i They arc sealed by machinery and the milk docs not come into contact with the atmosphere until the customers open them in their homes. That the system is an immense improvement on the old style of delivery by cans is obvious. A further endorsement is that it is strongly advocated by the health authorities as the only sale method of providing absolutely pure milk for infants and invalids. A noticeable feature of the bottled milk is that the cream line is distinctly seen through the glass, and customers can immediately discern the cream percentage in the supply they tire receiving. The bottles in the stall are taken from the ordinary daily supply and the quality of the milk is apparent to even tlie casual observer. Ambury's, Limited, are the pioneers of the bottled delivery system in Auckland. It was initiated two years ago, and for some months was only partially adopted. The experiment was so successful that the company adopted it completely in the business eighteen months ago. The display tit the exhibition is sufficient to indicate to the public the particular merit of the system. To further educate public opinion the company, extends a general invitation to all who ate interested to visit the factory of i Ambury's, Limited, at Manukau Road, Epsom," aud witness the bottling .-ystciti'j in operation. The best hour for visiting j the factory is 10.30 a.m., when the whole i plant is working, or the bottling machines can be seen in operation at 7.30 a.m. When it is remembered ! that the pint bottles are filled and capped at the rate of sixty a minute the operations should l>e well worth witness-, ing. A telephone message to No. 24-OliO or Xo. 43000 will be sufficient to make an appointment for a visit or to place orders. A point for the public to note is that the bottled milk is exactly the same price as milk delivered by the old system. This fact in itself is a tribute to the enterprise and progress!vencss of the company. Its desire to give the best possible service to the public it is claimed has been demonstrated completely by the adoption of the most hygienic methods in all its departments and the customers are receiving the resultant benclits without any additional cost to themselves. Another feature of the company's activities displayed at the exhibition is an exhibit of the Star brand of butter. Like the milk supply the butter manufactured by tbe company is of the highest quality and is absolutely free from preservatives. The exhibit of the '-tall is attractively displayed.
