NOLAN & CO., District Agents for Taranakf, A WARNING. BREADWINNERS. WE HAVE PLEASURE in again J assuring yoxi that we are in no way connected with any MILLING TRUST, ASSOCIATION or COMBINE — Freo in every respect. The Otago Times, May 31, in a leadling article, speaks in most* eulogistic terms of our independence, and having so successfully kept the TRUST at bay in the NORTH ISLAND, but'our\4ocal papers remain silent on our good> points. Though we have,, successfully combated the Trust, with .your assistance, we have not yet x been endowed with supernatural . xiowers to control the elements to prevent drought "anf I - shortagos throughout the world, and minus of these powers we are compelled to pay the market rate for Avheat, whichhas advanced, through the results ,pf a serious drought in the South, augmented with something similar occurring in Europe. We all like cheapness, but it is hardly fair, and not biblical, to ex- 1 poet that pne section of the community (i.e., farmers, etc.), should shoulder the loss alone for the betterment of mankind, wlien no other trade or profession. is asked to do so.^ Some platform orators for cheap notoriety say, remove the dutiesj no matter how seriously interferes with their neighbours. If this ' was • given effect to, the sweated surplus of mysterious America (with its recent disclosures in adulteration"), coloured India, where the weekly wage is about 2s, and greedy Australia, with its rceent reciprocity tariff, would be dumped in New Zealand, thereby ruining the farming and milling 7 cominumty, with their numerous dependencies. Australia liad a serious drought iv 1902, and its tariff was not altered for New Zealand's benefit. The Government^ is now exhibiting the horrors of sweating," so let us be careful and reflect seriously before giving vent to idle and dreamy thoughts, otherwise God's Own Country will no longer exist. Thanking you for past favours, and soliciting a continuance, We remain, -.' Always at your service, P. VIRTUE, Manager, Northern Roller Milling Co. " CHAMPION " BRAND.
