The Castle Hill cnal taken from a new seam at Kaitangata, gives the beat and cleanest fi e th it can be produced. The City Bjot Palace, George at leet, Dunedin, is turning out boots and fhoes suited to the Benson, and warranted to keep the feet dry, in spite of the weather prophe's. The e's^nce of coffee and chicory prepare! by Messis Grpgg and Co Dunedin, is an article that should be highly pnzad. It p'ac s within reach of ertryonethe meansof ob'aining a cup if coffee wi'h the least possible trouble and the best effect. It is greatly to tbe credit of the firm that th*-y are turning out »t a reduction of 20 per cent on the imported article, one that is superior to it nnd which has the further advantoge of being a local industry. The essence will be found invaluable by all h< usekeepers, an ; more especially by those who are overburdened with work or pressed for time. The flavouring essences prepared by the firm are also remarkably good, and such as must recommend themselves to the most fastidious palate. Messrs Neill and Co's Spring Blossom tea, for which ompetition is invited, as may be seen from our advertising columns, must recommend itself strongly to all those who give it a trial. It is of excellent flavour, and possesses in a hijjh degree all the qualities desirable to find in the beverage. Not even the moat exacting conDoisenr, indeed, could suggest for it any improvement. Itß use also insures economy, a comparatively small quantity being sufficient. An additional advantage possessed by this tea arises from i he fact that it is a product of European labour, which necessarily secures a greater degree of cleanliness, and a complete immunity from any risk of infic ion such as may, sometimes at least, be feared, in using the article a^ prepared by Asiatics. Tbe competition, therefore, which the firm invites should he oue in which large numbers will compe'e. The tea in itself rt quires no inducement for its use beyond its intrinsic qualities. We may add that we ppeak from personal experience, and can testify that chere is no exaggeration in what we have now eaid.
