AFFORESTATION, LTD.

BEASON OP. ITS SUCCESS. The following reasons show why Afforestation, Ltd., has such an overwhelming advantage over the other treegrowing projects which followed when their promoters found out what a fine investment tree-growing is, and accounts for its tremendous success:~ 1. Its promoters made a study of the subject. 2. They consequently looked for and secured land in the best growing distrct. 3. The promoters, not wishing to sell land in which they were interested, were able to make a wonderful bargain when purchasing. 4. The land purchased was bought by the Company for" the price of tie finit mortgage. 5. The land has larp railway frontage. 6. The ' land is close to a town— Putaruru. , 7. Messrs. H. A. Goudie an* 1 B. H. .-'■": Goudie, M.Sc, Consort .or of 'Forests at Eotoj/ni, and the Company's Manager respectively, both say the property cannot be equalled for the purpose. 8. The Company is souna financially. 9. The Company has no nurserymen interested as Directors or Promoters, and can undertake th* Planting, on the most economical basis without favour. 10. Full-time maintenance—this is a big factor in the cost of a proposition. A man would find it expensive to maintain a plantation himself. 11. Undivided control. 12. Larger area for cutting-out, and in consequence more economical cutting .'nd better financial results. £500 is the estimated return from one share of £25 (easy instalments, if required).
