KAITANGATA GOAL COMPANY starts with Established Reserve. In computing the £106,000 of Assets which the Kaitaffgata Coal Company will obtain for £26,500, no account has been taken of the valuable Blnegum Plantation of 116,000 trees.

Few new companies have commenced operations with a reserve already established. Apply for your shares at the Kaitangata Coal Company’s Office, Ist Floor, N.Z. Express Co.’s Building. Office open till 9 o’clock each evening. Oamaru: R. Finch, Thames Street. Kaitangata: Miners’ Union Office. Balclutha: R. Powell, Organiser, Clyde Street.
