TO AMMUNITION DEALERS.

A -TRADE- CERCTILAE, <Ehera is no-epecial merit is. importation- Have you not noticed that in this coontry there is a growing feeling in favour of goods of Nt‘r,v Zealand manufacture? 'JL’ho stupid prejudice in favour of imported goods is surely dying out. Consider the disadvantages of importing ammunition- Yon waste a lot of valuable time. Yon hate to order far ■i on an estimate of average sales, taking ail risks. In the majority of cases, you have to pay cash, on delivery. Apart from the risks, you have to put in heavy stocks. This means dead money. As tho times go, can you afford to have-dead money-? Think it out. How turn to the other proposal.’ -See how well it will pay you to buy from the Colonial Ammunition Company and cell cartridges made in How Zealand. Yod can get your stock os you need it. rm terms of the most reasonable char racier, and—you have no dead money! You benefit by tho liberal and enterprising advertising of ‘‘C_A.C." Cartridges, which is being steadily maintained all over the country. You profit by what is, after all, tho best advertisement a cartridge can have: the willing and enthusiasiio testimony of crack shots and sportsmen generally. Do you know that at tho great Trentham Eiflo Meetings only '‘C.A.CV' Ammunition is used. Not only this, but that the men competing at that meeting in ISO 9 put up records for tho world? Do you know that, although nearly 150,000 rounds were then fired, there was not a single complaint of a defective cartridge—not a bad one in the lot? Do you know of any English or American ammunition manufacturer that ever put up such a record as that in New Zealand—or anywhere else? Do yon know that Mr Duncan Eraser, Mr B. Burgess, and many other crack Shots who use "C-A.C." Cartridges for pigeon-shooting and general work, swear • fey them, and will use no other ? If you think of these things fairly, you will see that you have nothing to gain by importing your ammunition. You have, on the other hand, everything to gain by supporting a thoroughly wedl-establishcd and progressive New Zealand industry. The cartridges made by the Colonial Ammunition Company bio always good and fresh. If you have any suggestion to make, or if there is any innovation you would like to sco adopted, tho Company is virtually at your own doors, and will gladly hear you- It is always • responsive, and it is never content to stand stilh Tho Company's keenest critics on quality are its own responsible officers. They look for progress all the time. Trading with this Company, you suffer none of the vexatious delays; that pro inevitable in connection witn ordinary indents. Ton get tho goods just os you need them, every cartridge, thoroughly tested at the works and guaranteed. If this talk interests you, write to the Colonial Ammunition Company, Ltd., Auckland, now. They will bo glad to hear from you, and wfll spare no pains to furnish just tho information you require. It will pay you to deal with your own folk, and what pays you pays them. Your satisfaction is their security. The Colonial Ammunition Company make such wonderful progress fhiefly because they make it a rule never to loso a customer. The demand for “C.A.C.” Cartridges is ever increasing.. Last season's output exceeded all Anticipations. Next season's will bo bigger still. Why should you—an ammunition dealer—not have your share of tho Extensive sales that are to bo made? If you do not stock “C.A.C." Ammunition the pnblio will go to some other man who does. Sportsmen who have once used these fresh, sound, and quick cartridges will certainly not take kindly to Any other-make. 10
