This Company is being formed for the purpose of freezing and -canning meat ata minimum rate, manufacturing by-products and curing bacon, and securing stability of market, for stock. The objects ef the Company will be found more fully sot forth in the appended Memorandum of Association. The minimum subscription on which the directors may proceed to allotment is two thousand Shares (£10,000). The estimated amount of preliminary pense is 4400, exclusive of brokerage. A commission, not exceeding 5 per cent on the amounts payable on application and allotment, may be paid to the Company’s Broker or Brokers on all shares subscribed for through him or them. The Company in general meeting shall, from time to time, determine the remuneration to be paid to the Directors. If, in the opinion of the Board it is desirable that any 1 of their number make any special journeys or perform any special services on behalf 1 of tbeCompanv or its business, such Directtor o.- Directors shall be paid such reasonable additional remuneration and expenses therefore as the Board or Company may from time to time determine. Tbo qualification of every Director shall t be the holding in his own right of at least ’ 20 Shares in the Company. j The persons who aro named as the Provisional Directors will be the first Directors of ' the Company, and will hold office until >the statutory meeting of the Company, when they will retire, and the Shareholders * wiil be called upon to elect Directors for ~ the ensuing year. There is a strong consensus of opinion among the farming community that the establishment of an up-to date Freezing and Preserving Company ia the vicinity of Auckland City, owned and managed by ths farmers themselves, is of vital importance. An option of purchase of a site at Otahuhci, containing 79 acres or thereabouts situated on the railway line and bounded in part Ly the Mangere road, has been secured from Mr George Lamberton Thomson, of Otahuhn, which is exercisable on or before the 2nd day of February, 1904, the consideration being £2.710, which will be payable in cash. It is proposed to carry on the business of the Company on the lines of the Belfast Freezing Company of Canterbury. This New Zealand Company has been established for upwards of twenty years; has been eminently successful from the first; has extended flo trishing branches to Ashburton and T'imaru, and is almost entirely owned and mannged by farmers. No better object lesson can, therefore, be quoted to the farmers of .Auckland. Briefly, the. Belfssb Freezing .Company does not buy stock (although possessing the right to do eo by its Memorandum of Association), and is-therefoie not interested in keeping prices down. The Company freezes for all customers strictly in order of application at the lowest cost. Customers can dispose of their meat in any manner they wish; for instance, they can ship home through the Company or any other agent, or sell on the hooks at the works. The establishment of ‘The Auckland Farmers’ Freezing Co., Ltd.,’ managed on similar lines, will promote healthy competition, and by presenting an over ready chanU? nel to the grower for the disposal of his fat stock, will insiite a steady and remunera(K Live market, not only for fat stock, but alac V? for store sheep, cattle, and steer calves of the dairyman; the prices of each of these far classes, as is well known being ruled by the laN price of fat stock. As large areas of new country have beer ia< taken up during the last three years, anc as the same process Btiil continues, it ii confidently believed that in the near futurt hi. the supply of fat sheep and cattle for freez v;« ing wi.l be ample. The Dairy industry a!s< 'AV as it expands, will provide an ever increai ing number of steer calves, wkich will b< V.' turned into beef in'duo course. The eßtablishinuzit of the Belfast Freer, ing Company m the various eentres has it each case been attended with great benifr A\ to town and country, and, as a consequent with prosperity to the farming community v' This prosperity has arisen, not so much fron the actuai profits obtained from the Com •h pany it&olf, as from the indirect benefit de livable from the steady uud .ernumrutivi market for stock which x? assured by th< ak operations of suoh aCo nnany, and by con y. sequent advance in the value of land. lt is therefore with confidence th:-5 th: farmers of Auckland Provincial District an -• invited to heartily support the Aucklanc Ir Farmers’ Freezing Company.
