Thia Company Is formod for the purpose of facilitating and promoting the export of Moat, Dairy, aud Agricultural Produco of tho Colony, and of all,kinds of produce from the South Seas. 1 The Company intend to do tho export business for the publio ontlroly as agents, and on agoncy terms, bnt It will be prepared, if suoh business 1b not offorod, to undertakolt as prinolpals. Tho question of tho Meat supply to Europo is ono of tho most Important of tho presont day, and is exciting great attention. Tho consump tion of animal food throughout tho old world is increasing, through, tho higher wages earned by tho masses sinco tho growth of manufactures, and tho consequent inoreaso and distribution of wealth. In 1870 the total valuo of tho meat im ported into the United Kingdom was £7,708,000; but in 1880 it had grown to upwards of £20,000,000. This scarcity of meat has been partially rolievod by tho supply from America, but lataly the rising price there has caused a falling off of the supply from that souroo. Tho application ol science to meat preserving lias opened up to New Zealand this now and vast market for It produoe, and the prospect which is thus opened to the ooloniats Is most encouraging, and must add greatly to tho wealth and commerce of thfc count-?. Mr Joseph Banks, Managing Dlroctor oi Fisher and Co., has tikon a vory large intoresl in this Company, and to scouro his services and tho knowledge and oxporionco gained by an established and successful concern.the Directors havo purchased the extensive Meat Preserving, Butchering, and Export Businoss of Fisher and Co (Limited), with all their Freehold and Loasohold Estates Plant. Book Debts, LJvo and Doad Stock. Tbo Directors intond to continue the business now carried on by Iflßhor and Co., and to largely extend their operations. The Directors have also purchased at public auction from tho Auckland Harbour Board, tho fines! Bito in Now Zealand for tho purposes of the Company They propose erecting immediately upon this Bite a first-class plant for freezing meat for export, chilled chaiubors for a Dead Jluat Market, and General Export Stores. This bito is situated at the Railway Terminus, and tho Works to bo constructed by agreement between tbo Harbour Board and the Company, will bo connoctod with tho railway by a lino oi rails and be on tho finest deep-water wharf in Auckland, whoro shlpa drawing 25 feot oi water can oomo alongside and load a cargo oi- Frozen Meat in 18 nouns. Tho Works will bo oommenced forthwith, and tho Direotors bollevo that within 12 months thoy will havo their Kroezing Plant, Meat Storeß, Market and Export Stores ready for uso. The DEAD MEAT STORE AND MARKET will havo a capacity sulllclont to store a cargo for tho largest ship, and also to provide storage for the looal wants o£ Auckland. It is bollovcd when those capacious chlUcd Stores aro roady, thoy will be used by Stook-ownors, not only ac a depot for tho Meatcargoeß intonded for Ship mont but also as tho Depository for tho stock tho? havo for salo, and by tho Butchors as a Hoservo Store for their meat until required to moot tho daily wants ot thoir Kotail Businoss. Tho Batchers, and through thorn ovory house holder in and around Auokland, will bo largely bencflttcd by having a constant supply of prime moat. In first-class condition, during our hot summer weather as well as in winter. The well known largo loss of moat in hot weather, for whioh tbo retail purchasor has in ronlity to pay. will bo completely avoided by utilltlnn the Company's chilling stores. Provision will also bo mado for Cool Chambers for Dairy Produco, Butter, Cheeso, Milk, and a separate Chamber for Fish supply. Connected with this Branoh of the Company's businoss will bo the manufacture of Ice, which will bo made on a largo scale and sold (sttll at a largo profit), at very much lower rates than IniTO yet been known in Auckland. It Is not intonded to confine tho operations ol tho Company to the Provincial Distriotof Auck land. It wlu seek to collect stook and produce from other portlona of the North Maud, and will either directly Itself, or with the 00 operation of other districts, provido suitable local moans and appliances and transit by which tho Company b constituents ban reap the benefits of the Company's storage and ex port facilities and market In Auokland, Eng land, and other places. Mr Banks is now in America, and will, at ChlOßgo OBgago Exports in tho Canning and Meat Preserving trade. Though New Zoaland moat Is admitted to be superior to Amorican, yot superior skill and knowledge of tho trade ha» hlthorto onabled America to supply a better article in tinned and preßervod moats than any supplied from New Zoaland or tho Australian Colonies. This dlfiloulty tho Directors hope shortly to overcome, and Boon to bo ablo to supply tinned and preserved meats that will compoto with that or tho best produce houses ol Chicago. The demand throughout Europo and tho East for tinned and presorvnd moats of this olaes Is practically unlimited, and a direct trado botwoen Auolsland, India, China, and Japan is gradually growing up. Tho Canning of Meat on a large scale, and In tho lltßt class mode proposod. will, practically, bo a now industry among us that will givo con stant ornploymont to a considerable numbor of workmon, aud will also utilise a largo quantity ot meat In a much moro advantageous and profitable mannor than is at present possiblo, as tho Company will have tho option of canning or freezing it, Ab tho General and Export Storos which tho Company will immediately erect In Auokland, on thair railway and wharf site, will be most commodious, and will have all possible labour saving appliances, they must command the sup port of the Merchants of Auckland. For, being connected with both tho railway and doep wator wharf, they will afford the vory best po sition for tho oconomio storage of Merchandise whothor arriving coastwise or by road or rail, and whether intended for shipment or for any part o£ tho interior. A vory porceptiblo saving In cartage will bo effected by using those stores, as goods placed in them can oasily bo for warded either coastwiso or by rail. Tho Island trade, both import and export, for which Auckland is the natural centro, is in its merest infanoy, and is capable of great ex pansion at no distant date. And tho facilities which this Company will provido for collecting and storing, and for shipping at short and regu lar Intervals, tho varied and valuable prouuets o£ the Islands will largely promote tho rapid increaso of tho trade uetweon Auckland and the Islands. The want of sufficient outward cargo from and tho long detention o£ vessels loading at, this port, havo very muoh militated against it, as was recently impressed upon tho Harbour Board by a gcntlomhn representing Glasgow Bhip-ownors. The operations of this Company will largely remove such reproach by being ablo to havo cargoes of meat (frozen ana tinned), and agricultural. Island, and othor produco ready, at stated intervals, to load a stoanier or othor vossel in tho quickest possible time, and to givo, what is so essential for suc cessful Bteani services, really quick despatch. They will thus make practicable a regular line of steamers trading between this port and London, making the voyage in less than ono half the time occupied by sailing ships. Such a eervice will be of groat value to tho commercial interests of tho port, and. coupled with the regular export of meat and agricultural produoe by It to London, will prove a very poworful stimulus to immigration to Auckland of capitalists, farmers, farm-labourers, and of artisans. For tho fact that New Zoaland beef and mutton, equal in quality to tho best that tne rich pastures ot Scotland and England pro duce, aro regularly shipped to, and sold wholesato, in Condon, at a little moro than half the retail prioe in the Metropolis and large towns of England, will be moro convincing to the English mind of the abundant agricultural resources and advantages of this colony than the bost printed statements, or the most eloquont addresses of immigration agents.

', The shares o£ tho Company are of such an amount as to be within reach o£ all classes—the desire of the Diroctor3 being that tho Company 'i Should 1)0 A OKKAT CO-01'EUATIVE CONCERN, I with all tlio ndvantugos derivable from , I abundant capital, economical and skilled 1 management, the best moclianical and labour saving appliances, and with a large body of shareholders direotly interested aa producers mi A shippora. -hilo thero can bo no doubt of . tlie Company being a dividend-paying concern at . nn early date, through the Company having 1 i absorbed a profitable business, it will boot great L 1 benefit to stook-owners and farmers to hocome shareholders, as they thereby assist to provido ' for themselves a steady and rOKular market 1 for their produco, at paying rnto», all tho year 1 round; glutted markets and nominal prices being rendered Impossible to those farmers and stock owners who havo an interest in, and avail themselves of the services of tho Company.
