[Published by Arrangement.] FIG BREEDER'S SUCCESS.

At the Royal Show at Hastings the Large White sow which won the eight months and under fourteen class, and which was exhibited by Mr. E. P. Nielsen, of Tiakitahuna, also won the championship and supreme championship awards. This sow (Tiak Bonny) is but twelve months old, and competent judges agree that it is nearly as perfect as it is possible to get them. Considering the strong competition in the White section, especially in the aged sow class, it was something out of the ordinary to win with such a young animal.

"BELL BIRD" BACON AND HAMS

Carterton, the natural centre of the Wairarapa, has the proud distinction of being the headquarters of the noted "Bell Bird" Bacon factory established on Moreton Road twelve years ago by Mr. H. J. Brown, one of the most popular men in the district. His is indeed a model factory run on the very latest hygienic principles, with machinery and plant fully capable of meeting the district's demands for many years to come. The killing, curing, drying, and cool storage departments are an exemplification of Mr. Brown's methodical management and skill in the conduct of this important industry. "Bell Bird" Bacon and Hams are of a pleasing uniform quality, mild flavoured, and a popular breakfast dish in many Wellington and Wairarapa homes. It is procurable in Wellington at Hazelwood's Store, Kelburn, and Doughty's Store, Kilbirnie, and all branches of the W.F.C.A. in the city and throughout the Wairarapa. Retailers desirous of supplies should write direct to the factory at Carterton. All animals sent in for curing by rail are promptly dealt with; a carrier meets all trains for this purpose. The highest cash price is paid for good-quality pigs, and curing on behalf of private owners is featured. Householders who appreciate the best bacon and hams should ask for the "Bell Bird" brand, full weight, good quality, mild cured, Mid delicious. You have tried the rest, now buy the best. That is "Bell Bird" Bacon and Hams.
