To secure the retention of so large an 7 amount of protitable employment foi local -workmen should, m itself, be a great inducement to give to this enterprise ; for the carrying out of whicl .the erection of suitable machinery will 3. be necessary, and a continuous supply of timber and other raw material rej- nuired m the business, must be provided. It is proposed to purchase or take aver the business and plant of Mr. John Warren, known jib "TheGisbornt Steam Joinery Works," at a valuation, upon the following terms, as. follows, viz. : half cash and half m paid uj shares m the Company, and to procim •; a steam engine of greater power, witl sundry other matters, of plant —to en large the present work shop, thus providing power and space for th< *■" continued increase of business. Thes< c matters, together with the in-elhninarj '" expenses of floating and forming tin ! Company, (unless for the purposes of i largely-increased trade) will not require - more than two-thirds of the propose< capital to be called up. It is proposed to call up one-fourth o [. the capital during the first six months viz. : 4s per share on application, an< T 6s .on allotment ; 10s.dining.aho follow; p ing three months ; and the balance, i required, m calls of 5a each, at interval 10 of no less than three months. jj To builders thia project swbuld com le mend itself, for the two-fold reasons o economy of time and expense. Wopd working Companies have, as a "rule been eminently successful iv New Zert k* land, and their , dividends have beei steadily increasing during the past tei years. In tho prosent instance worl can be commenced immediately whei L< ) the required capital is subscribed therefore the money will not remain fo >. an any time unemployed. »rt The site upon which the presen factory stands is held under lease at rental of £42 per annum, the unexpirei __ term being L 7 years.
