And from the Auckland Stud Company (Limited) their Stud Farm, known as Sylvia Park, containing 322 aores, together with their stock of Thoroughbred and Clydesdale Horses. i. And from Messrs. E. and R. Maclean their Farm, known as Greenhill, at tho Tamaki, con taining 110 acres. - To farmers and dealers in cattle it is well known that Pure-bred BtocK are moro easily fattened, como to maturity earlier, produce better beef, and realise higher prices than the ordinary class of stock. This fact, which is so signiiicant to breeders and dealers in cattle, has or late years induced a constant and active de mand for pure-bred stook in England, America, and the Australasian Colonies. In view of this demandforpure-bred cattle, and tho large and in creasing area of land whioh is annually taken up for grazing purposes all over New Zealand, and the vast quantity of cattle required to stock tho same, the Directors see at once a ready market at good prices for their stock, and they believe tho Company will be able to pay early and con tinuous dividends from thou- ordinary opera tions in the sale of stook, without relying upon any profit from the increased value of landed property, which is hereaf tor referred to. Tho Directors confidently anticipate that the Frozon Meat Trado cannot fail to open a prac tically unlimited market for New Zealand beef and mutton, and will givo to stock-grazing interests in New Zealand an impetus which mußt ultimately tend to tho great advantage of this Company. The whole of the Pedigree Herds before men tioned, tho Clydesdale Horses and Sheep aro well-known; and consist of first-class imported stock (judiciously selected by the best judges, without regard to cost), and their progeny. Wherever exhibited they have received tho highest prizes. The celebrated Shorthorn Bull " Duke of Newcastle," the property of the Auok land Agricultural Company, was awarded First and Champion Prize at the Intercolonial Exhibition at Sydney for tho best bull of any breed for whioh tho whole of tho Australasian Colonies competed with imported and Colonial bulls. This bull and many of his progeny are among tho herds proposed to be purchased. The Horefords aro deserving of special mention. Five hundred and forty-five in number, they form tho largest herd of pure Hereford. In tho world—their progeny havo always mot a ready and remunerative sale. Tho Thoroughbred Horses of tho Auckland Stud Company (now forming part of thia com pany's property) arc well known throughout tha colonies and in Great Britain. No such stud exists in the Australasian colonies. Hitherto the Stud Company's operations havo been highly successful and profitable. Under more favour able eiroumstanecs, and with more extended operations, even greater and hotter results may reasonably be anticipated. The land purchased bythe Company for carry ing on their operations consists oi well-selected and suitable stations, where the breeding of pure cattle has for many years past been suc cessfully conducted. Theso properties havo also been selected with a view to thoir f uturo increase in value, and from this source alone the Directors anticipate tho Company will de rive considerable profit. Eleven hundred and forty; acres of the land acquired are bo near to the City of Auckland as to entitle them now to be classed as Suburban Lands, and they mnst speedily advancein value with the rapid development of tho city. t Tha value of tho Freehold, Leasehold, and Stock has been fixed by Messrs Alfred Buckland and Wm. Aitken. at the sum of £223,153 Is 6d The Directors, after tho valuation was fixed, Induced the Vendors to make tho important concession of leaving one halt of tho purchase money secured upon tho property at five per cent. Being thoroughly satisfied,.with the ob jects of the undertaking, tho Vendors have re served to themselves nearly one half of tho ' shares in the Company upon equal terms with the shares now offered to the public. Forms of Application for Shares and further particulars may bo had on reference to tho , Bolicitors of the Company, or to. ROBERT ROSE, Acting Secretary.
