This Company is proposed for the purpose of taking over as a “going concern,” and continuing the working upon a very much enlarged scale of the Tanning business, situate adjacent to the City of Wellington, and known as the property of Mr. J. Guilford (together with the wholcof the stock, tools, and machinery now in his possession), which is situated at Beramphore, near Newtown, within three miles of the city, and lias been in working order for the past seven years. The present proprietor has during.that time been extensively manufacturing shoemakers’ and saddlers’ leathers,; and now finds the demand so great •that increased, facilties are necessary to meet the demand; and being convinced, after, several years of practical operations, that a Company with capital introducing the necessary machinery and skilled labor, will be able to command a trade second to none in New Zealand, : ; : : The agreement with the vendor is to take the whole of the plant at a valuation, estimated:; to come to in all about £4OOO, £IOOO of; which amount will be taken by him in paid up jshares. The property consists of one acre of land, a new 10-H.V. engine and rolling gear complete, drying and scouring sheds, and .about, 30 excellently built pits, giving every facility for extensive operations ;; approached by a good macadamised road, and easy of access. ; / - ; During the last few years an enormous de-: maud has sprung .up for all kinds of leather, the supply both for the export and New Zealand trade being altogether inadequate to meet requirements, hence great delay and consequent loss to the consumer is constantly arising. It is therefore intended, :as .soon; as the-Com--, pauy is fairly floated, to lay down such. Increased stock and appliances as will meet these requirements, and to adopt such means as will secure for the Company’s leather the,first reputation! throughout the whole of New Zealand. i The business will be carried on byMr.J.

’Guilford until the Company enters into possession, and satisfactory arrangements can be made with that gentleman for his valuable services in connection with the active management of the Company. The Provisional Directors have not thought it advisable or necessary to prepare any elaborate' statements of .figures showing probable profit—the fact is well known to all, that such a business,- even moderately well managed, is bound to pay very handsomely ; andp when practical experience is combined with large capital, as it will be in this ease, the Company • should prove an investment second to none: in. the colony. A largo proportion of the,capitalhas already: been taken up by those , interested in the Leather trade.; Early, applications are therefore requested. .. Prospectus and Forma of Application ■ for Shares mayffie obtained front tho Bankers, any of the Directors, or at the temporary offices ' of the Company, Featherstdn-strcet, Wellingfcon. ‘J.
