Iho Company is projected to manufacture European Flax into Fibre, Eope, Twine, Oil and (Jake. There is at present a large and increasing demand for libre, in the shape of rope, and binding and other twine. £44,429 is annually expended in importing binding twine and cordage. Owing to the replacement of wire by twine for bindn g purposes, this amount may reasonably be expected very shortly to be exceeded considerably, rot to mention the other numerous applications lor which the fibre may be utilised. It is anticipated that the manufacture of Oil will be one of the most lucrative operations of the Company. Ihe quantity of Oil imported into New Zealand last year was 229,029 gallons, costing £33,385. It will therefore be seen that the demand for this substance for painting and other industrial purposes is practically unlimited. It may be noted that there is a protective customs duty on Oil of fid per gallon ; also that thejOovernment offer a bonus of £SOO for the first ten thousand ga'lons. After the expression of Oil from the Seed, the residual product, or cake, is of considerable value for fattening stock, and commands a price at home of £l2 per ton. It would therefore pay to export, if the local demand was not equal to the supply. It is proposed to obtain machinery with the latest improvements, capable of pLcing the above-mentioned products in the market at the lowest possible cost. It is anticipated that the supply of raw material will yearly increase, as doubtless the farmers of the district will find it advantageous to cultivate European Flax directly, by the uniformly remunerative market for the raw material, aru indirectly by the reduced price of locally-manufactured products, compared with the imported article. The promoters have no hesitation in recommending the Flax industry as a most profitable enterprise to both flax-growers and shareholders. Tbe incalculable advantages to the distinct of an industry of this nature in our midst cannot fail to be patent to all, and the numerous applications of flax fibre in the Arts will undoubtedly lead, at no distant date, to the establishment of other kindred industries. 9no
