A WONDERFUL RECCA FAMOUS PLOUCf; /TTHAT the " Dux " is coming into gene: -■- use can be seen at a glance from ihe !i< below. Every user owns from one to 10 plough, and only one buyer is given in each distiict so that farmers contemplating purchasing car see where the nearest' plough of the present '99 season can be inspected. Heavy rises in material all over the world have led the maken to notify an advance in price for next season, but there will be no change for the present stock. The last shipment landed a fen days since, and farmers 'and -agents will da well to send in their orders as quickly as possible. The " Dux "is not like other makes of ploughs (which are only suitable for stubble work, and do not bury their rubbish at, that), but is a really all round general purpose plough, equal to the severest dcman'ds of practical farming in lea, stubble, oi tusfeck. It. has been demonstrated over and over again that the "Dux" saves itself in a season, and with dear horseflesh and low grain prices, every farmer is interested in using the " Dux" implements, and thus saving his time and pocket. No better guarantee of the reliability of these statements can be needed than the names of users on this list, many of wliom are noted as men of exceptional experience and sound judgment. The "Dux "has no SALESMEN OR EXPERTS ~ travelling for or representing it, and has made ilti way solely upon its own merits. It is iniilt by men who have been a life-time at 'Aw business, from the best material obtainuble, and by the aid of the latest and moit efficient machinery. It is sold at a reasonable price and is in every respect splendid value. The double-furrow costs £11 10s and the treble-furrow £16 16s. They ore sold as three and four horse ploughs respectively, although some users get through their ploughing witb one horse loss. IN FIRST COST, IN T UPKEEP, AND IN HORSEFLESH, it romps over every other plough in the mar* ket, and when it is remembered that this is Ihe implement that went into Scotland, unknown, some four years ago, and put down all the cracks at the championship masting (winning the Scottish Championship and first and second prizes with only two entries), securing a gale of over 3000 ploughs each yea* in the most conservative country in the world, nothing more need be said.

The time has gone by for hauling obsolete machinery over the soil. This waa well enough in the age of wooden beawia, crude iron, and bullook teams, but at the present day when New Zealand farmers are called upon to compete with growers in the Argentine who are nearer the world's market, this colony must not handicap itself in the race. It ip not an edifying spectacle to watch a team of heavy draughts stumbling along with a- huge conglomeration of iron riding over the ground instead of going into it, and doing what is expected of it. The " Dux " harrows are considerably lighter in dead weight and in draught, are 5 tines, deep, and a« efficient as excellent workmanship and material can make them. Price is 25s per Leaf, trees included, in sets of 3, 4 or 5 leaves. " DUX " HOE AND DRILL PLOUGH. Very little need be said about this implement. It is well known and appreciated, and never a season har yet passed without many a farmer ordering too late, and being obliged to go without it. There is only one price, £3 10b, which includes the finest drill 'plough in existence; no extra -charges. There are two diamond tines on each Bide of the frame, or one more than in the " Planet Jun." as well as one weeder blade and one rear blade — seven in all. Thess are held in their places by clamps, po that there is no drilling and weakening of the frame. The diamond oarti are all reversible, bo that there is provision for double the usual wear. This implenftnt^ has no equal. - - 6. H. OATWAY, BOND STREET, DUNEDIN. ,
