HAWERA SASH AND DOOR FACTORY. QUIN BROTHERS, Proprietors*.. The Hawera Sash and Door Factory was established about 16 years ago by Messrs Thos. Twigg and J. T. Quin.

The firm has owned several sawmills in Taranaki, but these are not now^ in operation owing to the timber being cut out. Their present source of supply is at Turangarere, on the Main Trunk Line, where they'possess a, magnificent timber forest comprising some 1500 acres of .freehold land and several hundred acres of leasehold. The timber is of excellent quality, being much more hearty and better grown than most of the timber along the Main Trunk Line, and it is estimated that on the property now held by the firm that there is between 40 and 50 million feet. This timber is growing at an elevation of about 2300 feet, which is held to be a guarantee of quality and durability. The bush is connected with Quin Brothers' private railway siding by an iron tramway some 4 miles in length. As, the country was distinctly unfavorable for construction purposes, the cost was very considerable, taking a big gang or men twelve months to complete. % Thesawmill is erected close. to 4 the railway, and is an up-to-date mill in every respect. The steam power used is morethan 100 h.p. A new planinffmaphine, the third of its kind m.the poininion, has just been ereoted.
