" ’ ‘ ' • • ; mirntmm FTTHE success which has attended the esta X. . .blishment of the Mpsgiel Woollen Fac tory imder the provisions of the Joint Stock Act, and the greater facilities and extent to which such undei takings can be conducted by a Company as compared with a private individual, has led to the project of the formation :of a Company, with a view to the purchase of the Tokomairiro Pottery Works how owned by Mr W. M. White, and conducting the manufacture of Pottery and EarthenWMe- npom a scale somewhat commensurate with the luge market presented in New Zealand and the other Australian Colonies, this being the only Pottery Work established in the Southern Hemisphere. The present works were, commenced by Mr M. White about,a year ago, since which time he has disposed of over L 3.000 worth of Salt Glaze Pipes ‘ alone, the market for which is steadily on the increase, and beyond the present producing powers of the establishment. During this peribd Mr White hrs also deVeted a bonriderable portion of his time and attention to the* preparation bf the necessary buildings and plant - for the manufacture of all classes of Staffordshire Pottery Ware upon thu-most. .approved principles and latest improvements in machinery used in Staffordshire, and recognised.as the best and most economical in the world. The property is situated in the oeutrojpf Milton. Mr ; W.M. White has now ready for market of saleable articles for general Ana 1 * donlftticr purposes. The present time is, therefore, considered by the projectors of this Company the most favorable opportunity for entering upon the possession of the works, and pushing the manufacture and sale of PotterywareTn this' and the adjoining Colonies. An estimate of the nature and extent of the available market may be arrived at from the fact that .the value of Such imports into New Zealand altoe -for the year ending December last to L 70,000, of which Otago alone imported L22;000 worth of potteryware. The promoters have every confidence that they Will'be enabled to supply the whole Colonial market With any article in potteryware, at * to compete successfully with the Home article, while securing a large margin of profit to the Company, who have secured the services, as manager, of Mr Chetham, for thirty years proprietor of one of the largest English Potteries, and practically f- 1 quainted with the various processes adopted every branch of the trade. The services of t preseflt staff—of over thirty thoroughly expemeed bauds—brought from the Staffordshi Potteries direct, and now engaged upon ti works, have also been obtained. The projectors have agreed with Mr W. I White - to take over the Freehold Property co aistiug of Three Acres of Land surrounding ti present centrally situated Works (secured wi ? future development), and t! largownd sUbstantial buildings, with plant ai stock, at a valuation estimated at, or abor L7,6t)0, including the General Govemme bonus of;L3PO, - Theamount of goodwill esi at L 2.000, Mr White has resolved to vest in the Company in paid-up shares to amountr-so -confidentia he in the bona tides the ,undertaking in the hands of a public Coi PJiXw/Hb® .projectors have also seemed fro Mr White his right obtained from the Gener Government to remove clay from the lands a joining .the line of railway between Tokomairf and the Clutha, which clay is allowed, by coi petePr / judges, to be equal to any found England for manufacturing - purposes. Tl Government are now forming a siding to the clay, pits, which are inexhaustible.
