The Company is proposed to be formed for the purpose of purchasing the property and business of the Lion Brewery Company in Ashburton. The very ! extensive agricultural district, in the centra of which the town of Ashburton is situated, is one in which'a very largo private as well as hotel trade is carried on, and,the facili iea for brewing all that could be Wished, and the wster of better quality for the purpose than can be found elsewhere in the Province of Canterbury. The Lion Brewery is situated on T.S. 366 and 367, at the corner of Dobson and Casa streets. The building is of brick, with a concrete cellar, which can be extended underground at a very* small cost, and is quite new, having beOn erected about twelve months. The Building and Plant is all of firstclass quality, well arranged and very complete, and tfcith the connection already established it is anticipated that there will be no difficulty in extending the business, with the influence of the Company aqd capital, throughout Canterbury, but particularly throughout the Ashburton County. ' 1 The success which has attended the Brewery Companies in every part of the world offers a great inducement to capitalists and investors to take up shares id Companies of this description, and the promoters fhave the greatest confidence in the success of the proposed Company, and have agreed to take One Thousand Pounds’ worth of fully paid up shares' shpuld the. Company desire them to do so. It is further proposed to obtain the services of a first-class brewer, to ensure a large and profitable trade being done. Although the nominal capital of the Company is £20,000, a comparatively small sum is required to purchase the present premises and plant of . the Lion' viz., £3,000, the stock being a Valuation. The increased capital is required to exierid the present premises, and business, and also to erect a malthouae. It is believed that malting will be a very profitable branch of the Company’s business, owing to the quantity of barley grown in the immediate district. ! ' It;is proposed to issue 2,000 shares only at present, but it will be left to the discretion of the Provisional Directors to issue as many shares as they think desirable. It proposed to call up £2 par share, as required, in calls of not more than 10s per share,. and ,at intervals, after the allotment, of not less than three, months. The remaining shares will be issued to the public (preference ~ being given to existing shareholders) as the requirements of the Company develops, and it is confidently believed that a substantial premium will bo obtained on them, as in the case of other Brewery Companies, such'premiums to be placed to a reserve fund, and thereby strengthen the position of the Company. If the Company,is not .floated, *the deposits will be returned in full to. the applicants. ; - The Share List will be closed oh Monday, the 18th June. , i f 1172
