| IMPROVING QUALITIES. : At ihe iiith aautiisl meeting of ti:e Xew Zealand Paper Aiiiis Company. at j)i:nedin this weyk tile chairman said :—' | An import*;ut stage in the operations of tiie company had boon readied m the completion oi the alterations at Hiverhead _\!dl. Seme time. ago the demand lor eur manufactures became so great that tile plant we then had was proving unequal to its task. and a it: •- carotid considered ion the i>o.ai'd decided to order a. m w paper-making machine or a si:-:e that Would give a considerably increased outpiu. 'i'iiis i machine, with the if. cessnry beating . and driving power, has e ; ,st'. with :,i----teyaficns v.> the buildings some - and it will be seen from the b.ii-nr.ee-shoot that- :i largo properiion ot vms evpendituie ha.s been provided out ot earnings. Moreover, a demand has been steadily <jro;vin>i for a light, strong pap-r to the lieavg-r and stout:'r article iormerly in g -renal use. To manufacture this quality, and so pace vith the icqrireinrnts oF the market, sundry changes : hi'v.. been m.ade in thf plant, and ar- • rang'-i-ients mad'- in;- n regular- snnply !oi wood pulp. T feel it- ii!CTiinb;>«t up:on me t:i point out to sliare'iob]"rs : manufacture this 1-frlit ciualit-v of paper from imported raw material does not allow the same margin of profit as wlion tlie waste material in 'ilje ; Dominion can be utilised, and th.ouib 1 we hope by a preater output and iiidie- : ious maf,, ~! ak im for'soni" : of th« differenee. it- is possible we mav net have in Tutu-,-, quite the same bali anees to deal with.
