They are now inviting tenders for timber required, sawn and squared, specifications for which may be seen at this office, at Milt. Waite's, Junction, and at Gallagher Bros. M cLean and Co are well knowTi in the North Island, and have carried out some of the largest works ever executed there in a most satisfactory manner.
