H.B. APPLES APPRECIATED. (To the Editor.) Sir,—We should be very much obliged if you would be kind enough to insert the attached letter in the valued columns of your paper. This is typical of the dozens of letters we have received this year from all parts of England in praise of the Hawke’s Bay fruit exported to London, and no doubt would be of interest to the fruitgrowers of the district. Thanking your in anticipation. —Yours faithfully, FOR THE HAWKE’S BAY FRUITGROWERS. LTD., C. Martiji, Secretary. (Enclosure.) 17 Seaway Terrace, Preston, Paignton, S. Devonshire, England. Dear Sirs, —I discovered a note when opening a Ixjx of your apples asking the person to write in reference to the fruit. I am delighted with the fruit and always try to get your brand. I really must say they have turned out the best I have had for the season and feel more than sorry 1 cannot get any • more this year. The packing is firstclass and quite an improvement on the heavy boxes packed in Australia, which often deceive the shopkeepers. I spent three years in New Zealand in business at Wellington, and had the pleasure of selling your fruit there. I feel quite proud when I can tell the people here what kind of fruit I am selling and knowing your firm so well at the other side of the world. I sincerely hope you will continue to serve us so well. It means pounds to us when we can rely on getting sound boxes of apples, also the weight. Should you have any advertisements to spare. I would gladly show them in my shop and push your fruit like the New Zealand “boys” pushed the Germans. — Yours faithfully. T. W. GUBBIN. Late with the Wairarapa Trading Co. (Messrs. Toogoods, Ltd.), Featherston, N.Z.
Mr. and Mrs George T. Robins (Nelson) expect to leave for New Zealand in September. In coming from one of the apple-growing districts of the Dominion, Mr. Robins is greatly interested in the prospects of the marketing of the fruit here, and he suggests that a label, “New Zealand Produce,” should l>e enclosed in every case of apples, with a request on the reverse side that the shopkeeper should place this label on the fruit when it is offered for sale. Although he knew that New Zealand apples were on sale in numerous shops round about London. he searched in vain to find any available for sale as coming from the Dominion.
THE GOODNESS OF EFFICIENCY. Efficiency is equally desirable in the home as in business, fer unless a housewife is systematic she is net wholly efficient, her work seems te drag, it is never finished. One of the greatest enemies of efficiency at this time of the year is a cold or chilL It makes one feel lethargic, don’t-earo-i'-it-never-gets-done feeling. Royle’s Cough Mint is an efficient destroyer of Coughs, Colds and Chills. It U prepared specially for what is called the “Inner Treatment.” All chills and colds begin on the surface and penetrate to the tender inner skin, but Boyle’s Cough Mint drives them out.
