The Wairarapa Daily. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1882. THE TARATAHI DAIRY COMPANY.
1 • • I The marked success which has attended tbe formation of the above 1 company proves that the district iu which it is to be established is in a remarkably vigorous and healohy state. Carterton has never been an "ugly duckling," but it bids fair, without 'having passed through this , stage of developement, to become a »! white swan. We were hardly preo' pared for the statement made at the 1 meeting on Wednesday last that there were 875 cows in the district, and that of this number the milk of 609 was e already promised to the proposed factory. From these statistics we should gather that the company would from j the: time it commenced work, be able . to turn out some £2OO worth of cheese and butter weekly. On such a scale there can be but little doubt, with ordinary .care, of shareholders obtaining; good interest for their investments during even the'first year's operations. It is almost time that ) the enterprising lead of the Carterton and Taratahi : settlers was followed in Masterton. Have we no residents in .this neighborhood who will take a cow census ■ and' ascertain how many farmers would be willing to supply milk to a dairy factory 1 t That white elephant of the Town Lands Trust-the old school buildings —could probably at a very small outlay . be converted into a factory, and the 5 site on which it stands is an exception- , ally good one, Our fanners are very busy ploughing just now, but we hope some of them have time to talk over , itory at Masterton similar to the ones launched in Featherston, Greytown, | and Carterton. It is bad enough to f be last on the list of townships, but even this is better than remaining out in the cold altogether. ■mmmhoomi p : ; —f ) .Messrs M.
