REID AND GRAY, LTD., Rangitikei Street, Palmerston ' N,

There are few of the principal implement firms showing this year at Palmerston North. Messrs. Reid and Gray, for instance, have long since discontinued the practice of making a display, on the show grounds. This involves considerable expense on the Palmerston branch, and every farmer from Auckland to Bluff knows that Raid and Gray make and stock certain lines' that can't be done without, and as they have branches and agencies throughout the Dominion, an expensive demonstration at the shows is of little value to them. However, it | is well to remember that Messrs. Reid and Gray, Ltd., are ever mindful of the farmers' interests, and in order to meet the visitors to Palmerston North during the Show period, Mr. W. B. Cameron, the local manager, is making more than an ordinary exhibition of all kinds of agricultural machinery at the firm's showrooms in Rangitikei street.' A most interesting one indeed. The Storrie disc ridger, two-row scuffler, turnip thinner, horse hoe, all of which are manufactured by Reid and Gray, are on display, also their limt, basic slag, and manure distributors, Cambridge rollers, saw benches, ploughs, harrows, windmills, and don't miss. seeing the firm's high- ! grade.grass mower. This is manufactured in Britain of first-class materials, its special feature being driving" wheels with steel spokes, fitted with roller bearings, entirely protected from dust.
