reports arc exhaustive and orainontly satisfactory, and it now only re mains to be considered whether the preserved meata can be produced at remunerative pricea. It very early be came apparent that this could only be done by carrying on the business on a large scale, and locating the manufactory at a site where an extensive and constant supply of stock could be secured. The statistics of the Auckland cattlo market show that a large supply of our best stock comes to us from the Waitara, -which is the shipping port for Auckland for the rich tract of coun try extending South to Hawera. Messrs' Buckland and Banks, two of our directors, proceeded to Waitarn, and extended their tour of inspection through the whole of the country I have referred to. They were most favourably impressed with the capabilities of the district and its powers of production, and as stated in the report, a site h=W been secured, and a contract entered into for the. erection of a first-class freezing plant, in cluding freezing, cooling, and preserving rooms, also extensive slaughterhouses, lair a«re yards, &c, capable of doing a business of 500 bullocks and 0,000 sheep a week. One of the principal advantages of the Vvaitara establishment will be that nearly (he whole of tho present charges upon stock consigned to the Auckland cattle market will bo saved these charges, averaging far cattle about £2 per head, besulee the loss of condition resulting from the sea voyage, etc. The prime portions only of stock slaughtered at the Waitara wi be brought to Auckland, where they will be nlaced in the Company's freezing chambers and available for the Auckland market or shipment to London, as may bo found moat advantageous. It is believed that a probable result of tho Company's operations at Waitara will be an advance in Jthe price of stock in the Auckland markets, with out increasing tho price to the consumer. There is another branch of tho local industry I ma/ here refer to, and that is the production of ordinary salt meat in' casks. ' In this, also, the American article; has hitherto entirely surpassed the colonial product. Some casks of the best selected unit meat were sent Home from here and submitted for tho inspection of the Ad miralty authorities, and by theni compared with American brands, with a result exceed ingly unfavourable to the Auckland article. The quality of the meat was admitted to be excellent, but the appearance of the brine or pickle and tho mode of packing the meat resulted in tho production of an article of altogether a less inviting aspect than the American meat. Special provision lias now been made for the manufacture of salt meat in casks of a quality which, it is believed, will stand any test of competition. Reference has been made in the report to tho »:ii and manure works which will shortly be in operation at Otohuhu, The Company has been fortun atein securing the services of MrSymonds, the manager, who lias had practical ex perience of works of this nature in England, and who takes a proportionate interest in this branch of the Company's business. Large sums are now paid for imported manures, many of the component parts of which are locally available, and thojre appears no reason to doubt that manures of equal pr superior fertilising qualities can be produced at prices con sjderably below those which tho imported articles command. I annex report of manager :—

The works for the manufncturo of sniphurio acid''and artificial manures arc In a forward State, and will be in operation by the end of the yeaf. Thay will be capable of an output of 2,500 tons of superphosphate yearly, and arc so con structed as to admit of extension without any alteration in the plant now orectod. Before leaving England, I based my calculations with regard to the cost of producing first-class manures here upoa obtaining the supply of sulphtir from Europe, but noKotiations are now in progress which I hope will result in our pro enring Bulphur from the neighbouring islnnds. I have already secured a cargo of guano from the South Sea Island?, and am in treaty for the supply of guano of superior qualities. I hAve every confidence that this branch of he' Company's operations will be of a highly remunerative character, and in connection with, t't I look for a profitable trade in sulphuric acid, for which, I find, thero Is a considerable demand. I have already advertised this buainets in local papers and in the AsriculturalSocietv's cata logue, and have circulated a price list and circular, which, I trust, will servo to introduco the Company's manufactures. It is our inten tion to manufacture sulphate of ammonia for mixture with our special manures, thus making them extremely valuable to the farmer. It will bo a favour if shareholders in the Company will permit copies of our circular to lie upon their office tables, and so assist in promoting tho sale of our manures". No pains shall be spared, on my part to introduce nigh olass manures and Hiakethjs department a success.—H. Stmontds, ManaKCrManureWorkßDepartment, November Jth, 18SJ. '' '* . ', i::- . 'Gentlemen, J believe I have now gone through the principal'items of the Com> pariy's affairs, and J have referred to them at some length because I believe some con- Bitjerable misapprehension has existed with regard'to the object* and scope of the Com pany's operations, and I now come to ques tion of finance. Gentlemen, you must be aware that the works I have referred to cannot be carried out except at a very con siderable outlay. The following is a list of. liabilities which have been incurred gince the date up to which the accounts you have before you were made up, tho oino-iute being given in round numbers :— Aoldworks ••,••, ••. •• ,•• £3.00 Phileox's contract for freezing works t and building?, Auckland reclamation.. 17,f 00 Maguire'a contracts .. .. -.. .. 19,200 Machinery, &c, Auckland works.. .. 3.6C0 Waitara works, including machinery .. 9,000 Engineers,architects, &<s. .. .. .. 2.000

..Total .. «• ....... «,300 You will observe, gentlemen, that of these items the sum of £41,000 are for sums ex ponded on reclamations and buildings on the land-(or, I should rather say, water, for every inch of hnd has been, or will have to bey reclaimed from the water) leased from the Harbour Board. To this sum will havo toba added a further amount for a reclama tion extending nearly to tho end of the Bailway Wharf, and which, as the water is of *t»qc,h, greater depth, wil} involve i^nucii greater expenditure, cerfaihly not less thai} |ome'£jg,o&Q to £20,000. TMs, gefitlemerj, wjH make a {jotafof some £60,0Q0, exclusivg fl{:^ny buildings except "those now jn coflrsg of erection, and which atone we are under our lease bound to 'erect. Besides this capital sum weave further paying a ground rent of £300 a-year, to increase 50 per cent, at.the end of 21 years^ It appears, how. | ever, that under the covenant of the leases we are debarred from recouping ourselves In any way either by letting or sub-leasing any portion of the reclamation which may be surplus to our requireinents'without the consent of the Harbour Board, This re- ! striction, gentlemen, certainly 'appears to toe to be unreasonable. It hampers our operations and prevents our raising' one penny by way of mortgage except with the consent'of the.Harbour Bdard; I have thought it desirable to refer to this matter because upon it will turnthe question as to whether the greater portion df the capital of the ComfSany will bavetobe called up 6r whether we can raise capital elsewhere by way of tnortgage or otherwise at a ' low rate of interest. I need hardly point , out that in operations involving the em- ( ployment of largo sums of money it is Ssßential that the bulk of the capital should be raised at low rates of Interest, | leaving the shareholders to provide that ; margin only which isreqnired as aguarantee for ik safe security. Gentlemen, there are some "undertakings that result in the ag- , grandiHemerit'of individuals only, and others of a more enterprising character that, while affording" a fair prospect of ve £urns"t6'.the promoters, will,',if successful, result in immense benefit to the community ■ at largo, ,and J. can. imagine no' operations fitejy^io be.

That* question1 hinges upon the homeward freight, concerning the acquisition of which the steam companies arb anxidrfs and eager, and with regard to which we have already hadinquiries from the General Manager 0£ tb&New Zealand Shipping Compuny. The successful working of the Waitara works, thotesoltaof which, in the matter of ex port; will concentrate at the p6rt of Auck land, should; lead to!an early estabfisli rient' ot-• Blmikf ,' works at Gisbowe Eid;' otlier ports.

These points;were uigea and a«3twiqedvih.attlie tiros that iheaeaseai*

have reforred to wero taken from. the Harbour Board, and it was then intended and understood that valuable concessions should bo made to tho company, and if it should now appear that these concessions have been rendored migatory by mere technipal legal restructions, we shall, I believe find suffi cient public spirit in tho members of that Board to remove these restrictions and enable us to carry out to maturity the object so beneficial to the community at large. ' ■ In answer to a question, Mr Fikth stated that tho Company hoped to be able to, com mence freezing operations in Auckland i 1 February next, and to continue till April next, when the first shipment would be made Home.

Mr Banks also gave some information with regard to tho Company's proposed operations. He was inclined to think that their largest supply of cattle and sheep would come from this provincial district. The motion was then seconded by Mr Brooks and adopted. Upon the proposition of Mr A, K. Tay lor, seconded.by Captain Steele, tho re tiring directors—Messrs J. Banks, A. Bull, L.: D. Nathan, and Every Maclean—were re-elected. It was resolved*, upon the motion of the Chairman, seconded by Mr Every Mac lean, that Mr John Milne should be appointed sole auditor, at a salary of £50, instead of having two auditors as heretofore, at a salary of f25 each. It was also agreed that the next annual meeting should take place oh the second Wednesday in November, 1885. Captain Steele thought that the price of the superphosphate"manures might very well be, reduced, in order to facilitate in creased consumption. £6 per ton was too high. It should be £5 per ton, and in that event thero would probably be an annual demand for 5,000 tons in this provincial district alone. Mr Firth endorsed these remarks. 1 The Chalrman and Mr Banks promised - that tho directors would earnestly consider the matter, and, if possible, make a reduc tion. They would be content with a fair. profit. On the motion of Mr A. K. TAYLOK.a vote of thanks was passed to the Chairman, which that gentleman duly acknowledged. This concluded the proceedings.
