RAIL BY MOTOR TRUCK. THE THORNYCROFT WAY. There is one redeeming feature of the curtailment of the railway service. If it has done nothing else it has convinced merchants, farmers, and others of the efficiency and econoifly of motor transport. Numbers of concerns which have previously used the railway exclusively for the transport of their goods are now investing in Thornycroft Trucks. Made in five sizes from 30 to 40 h.p., with carrying capacities of 2, 21, S, 44, etc., tons, there is a model for every purpose. The fact that after exhaustive teats numerous local body engineers have decided on Thornycrofts speaks for their quality. Order* are being booked ahead so get in early. Further particulars on application to A. Hatrick and Co., Wanganui and Wellington.
