This Company is formed for tho purpose of facilitating and promoting tho export of Moat, Dairy.and Agricultural Produce of this Colony, and of all kinds of produce from the South Seas. The Company intend to do tho export business for tho public entirely as agents, and on agency brms, but it will bo prepared, if such business ia not offered, to undertako it us principals. Tho question o£ tho Meat supply to Europe is ono of the most important of tho present day, and is exciting great attention. The consump tion of animal foot! throughout tho world is increasing, through tho higher wages earned by tho ma33e3 since tho growth of manufactures, und the consequent increaao and distribution of wealth. In IS7O tho total valuo of tho meat im-, ported into tho United Kingdom was £7,703,000; but iv 18S0it had grown toupwards of £20,000,000. This scarcity of moat haßbeen partially relieved by tho supply from America, but lately tho rising price thero has caused a falling oiF of Iho ' supply from that source Tho application of science to meat preserving has opened up to Now Zealand this now and vast market for ita produce, and tho prospect which is thus opened to the colonists is most oncouragiug, and must add groatly to tho wealth and commerce of this country. Mr Joseph Banks, Managing Director of Fisher and Co., has takeu a vory large interest In this Company, nnd to secure his services and tho knowledge and experience gained by m established and fcuccessl ill concern,the Dhcclors have purchased tho exteiisivw Meut Prfsorving, Butchering, anil Export Biisinesa o£ Fisher and Co. (Limited). With all their Freehold and Leasehold Estates, Plant. liook Debts, Uve and bead Stock, and have entered into an agree ment bearing dtito tho lltli day o£ July. 1833, madf! lmuvw'ii KMur .....•! Uonipimy (I.jtnilftil). ot tho ono vait, nnd Jo.-iah Clifton Firth, ou behalf or Hie Company, ot tho other part. The .Directors intend to continue tho busi ness now carried on by Fisher and Co., and to largely extend theiv operations. Tho Directors have also purchased al public auction from tho Auokland Harbour Hoard tho finest tilu in Now Zealand for tho purposes of tho Company, and have accepted a lease thereof, dated the 17th day of July, 185.% made between tho Auckland Harbour Board and this Company. 'Iliey propose ereciinK immediately upon this sito n first-class plant for l'reeziug meat for export, chilled chambers for a IJeud Meat Market, hud General Export Stores. This sito is situated at tho Railway Terminus, and tho Works to be constructed by agreement between tnc Harbour hoard and tho Company wiM bo connected with tho railway by a lino of rails, and ba on the llnest deep-water wharf in Auckland, where ships drawing 25 feet of \vat«r can como alongside and load A cargo Ol.1 FItOZEN MKAT IN 18 HOUHS. Tho Works will bo commenced forthwith, and tho Directors boliovo that within 12 months they will havo their Freezing Plant, Meat Sto:es, Market and Export Stores ready for uso. Tho DEAD MEAT STORE and MARKET will have a capacity sulliclont to store a cargo for the largest bhip, and also to provide storage for tho local wants of Auckland. It ia believed when theso capacious chi"cd Storei aro ready, they will bo used by Stock-owners, not only as a depot for 'ho Meat caruoea intended for Ship meut, but also as tho Depository for tho stock they have for Bale, and by the Butchqrsasa Roservo fcitoro for thoir meat unt:' required to meet tho daily wants ot their Kotail business. The Butchora, and through them overyhouso holdor in and around Auckland, will bo largoly benofltted by having a constant supply of prime meat, in lirst-clasa condition, during or? hot summer weather as well as in winter. Tho well known largo loss of meat in hot weathor, for which tho retail purchasor has in reality to pay. will bo complotely avoided by utilising the Company's chilling stores. Provision will also bo made for Cool Chambers for Dairy Produce, Butter, Checso, Milk, andaßoparate Chambor for Fish supply. Connected with this Branoh of the Company's business will bo tho manufacture of Ico, which wi'! be made on a largo scale and sold (still at a largo prollt) at very much lower rates than havo yet been known in Auckland. It Is not intended to confine tho operations of tho Company to tho Provincial District of Auck land. It will sock to collect stock and produco from other portions of tho North Island, and will cither directly itßolf, or with the oo oporation of other districts, provide suitable local means and appliances and transit by which the Company's constituents can roap tho benefits of tho Company's storage and cx- Jiort facilities and market in Auckland, Eng and, and othor places. Mr Banks is now in Amorica, and will, at Chicago engage Experts in tho Canning and Meat Preserving trado. Though New Zonland meat is admitted to be superior to American, yet superior skill and knowledge of tho trado La* hitherto enabled America to supply a better article in tinned and preserved meats than any supplied from New Zealand or tho Australian Colonies. This difiioulty tho Directors hope shortly to overcome, and soon to be able to supply tinned and preserved meats that will compete with that of tho best produce houses of Chicago. The demand throughout Europo and tho Kast for tinned and preserved moats ol' this class is practically unlimited, and a direct trado between Auckland, India, China, and Japan is gradually growiDg up. The Canning of Meat on alargoacalo, and in tho first-class modo proposed, will, practically, be a new industry among us that will give con- Btant employment to a considerable number of workmen, and will also utilise a largo quantity of meat in a much more advantageous and profitable manner than is at present possible, as tho Company will havo the option of canning or freezing it. As tho General and Export Stores which the Company will immediately erect in Auckland, ion their railway and wharf sito, will be most commodious, and will have all possible labour saving appliances, they must command tho sup port of tho Merchants of Auokland. For, being connected with both the railway and deep water wharf, they will all'ord tho very best po sition for the economic Btornge of Merchandise, whether arriving coSstwise or by road or rail, and whether intended for shipment or for any pui-t o£ tho interior. A very perceptible saving in cartage will bo effected by using those stores, as goodi placed in them can easily bo for warded either coastwise or by rail. The Island trade, both import and export, for which Auckland ia tho natural centro, is in its merest infancy, and is capable of groat ex pansion at no distant date ; and the facilities which this Company will provido for collecting and storing, and for shipping at short and regu lar intervals, tho varied and valuable products iof tho Islands, will largely promote tho rapid increase of the trado between Auckland and the Islands. The want of sufficient outward cargo from and the long detention ol vessels loading at, this port, havo very much militated against it, as was recently impressed upon the Harbour Board by a gentleman roprescuting Glasgow ship-owners. Tho operation of this Company will largely remove such reproach by being ablo to have cargoes of moat (frozen and tinned), and aerioultural Island, and other produce ready, at stated intervals, to load a steamer or other vessel in the quickest possible time, and to give, what is so essential for suo cessful stoam services, ronlly quick despatch. They will thus make practicable a regular line of steamers trading between this port and London, making the voyage in less than one half the time occupied by sidling ships. Such a service will be of groat valuo to the commercial interests of tho port, and. coupled with tho regular export of meat and agricultural produce by it to London, will prove a very powerful stimulus to immigration to Auckland of capitalists, farmers, farm-labourers, and of i artisans. For the fact that Now Zealand beef and mutton, equal in quality to the best that the rich pastures of Scotland and England pro-



j Prospectua. duce, are regularly shipped to, and Gold wholesale, in London, at a little more tlian hall the retail price in the Metropolis and large towns of England, will b3 more convincing tc the English mind of tho abundant agricultural resources and advantages of this colony than the best pilntod statements or tho moat eloquent addreDses of immigration agents. Stock-owners and farmers genora'ly by the operations ot this Company will secure what is of tho greatest importance to them, viz:-A STEADY MAHKBT, AT FAIB PRICES, IN AM SEASONS. The shares of the Company are of such an amount as to bo within reach of all classes-the dasire of the Directors being that the Company should be a great co-opkrative concern, with all tho advantages derivable from abundant capital, economical and Bkillcd management, the best mechanical and labouiß saving appliances, and with a largo body of shareholders directly interested as producer and shippers. While there can be no doubt o' the Company beinga dividend-payingconoernat an early date, through tho Company having absorbed a profitable business, it will bo of great benefit to stock-owners and farmers to become sharoholdera «s they thereby assist to provide for themselves a steady and regular market 'ortheir produce, at paying rates, all the year .•ound; glutted markets and nominal prices being rendered impossible to those farmers and stock owners who liavo an interest in, and ava". themselve3 of tho services of tho Company. The Shareholders will have the first claim on the Company's services. Country settlers as well as the large farmer and stock-ownor oan reap the benefit! wWcn this Company w.'ll ine^-'bly confer on the agricultural and nastoral in* )re:ts of this and surrounding districts. Applications for shares tobo made to the acting Secretaiy, Mr A. Boardman, at the Offlco of tho Company, No. 125, Queen-street, whore forms can bo had on or before the eighth day of August prox. Tho application, allotment, and farther pay ments, named on account of shares, can be made to the Bank of Now Zealand, Auokland, or to any of its Branches. The Memorandum of Association and the Articles of Association can be seen at tho Office of tho Company, or the offlco of the Solicitors of the Company. There are no promoters' shakes, and NO MONEY TAID TO PBOMOTKRS. If more shares are applied for than can be allotted, the allotment will be pro rata. While the Directors have made provision for ft large Capital, it 1b intended to avoid calMng it up unnecessarily. They will doubtless be able to obtain money for Iho Company's purposes at low rates of interest. Auckland, July 18th, 1883. Ursoerv and Ulottuna. A *» °\ I DEFKI'.EKD \ I paYMSN?
