LOCAL INDUSTRY AT ALEXANDRA.

Regarding looal indu? tries, I may mention that there resides heie Mr Prince, blacksmith, who was for many years engaged in the L.anufac'ure of iigncultural Implements with some of the leading firms in England. He made to the order 'f Messrs G-übbin*, of Ohaupo, a Hand Kul c, on the orinciple of the English Horse Uake. Messrs Q-übbins \rero so pleased with its proluctioi that they exhibited it, at the show of the Central Wuikato Agriu ulturul Association, held at Te Awamutu, and a fir^t-class pnza was awarded for it. He, Mr P. has now on baud several orders for these rakes, and Messrs Gh will willingly exhibit theirs to any persons desirous of seeing the ajm\ I saw alsj a specimen of Fern Hooks, made by Messrs Prince and Sons (he has two sons in partnership with him) quite tqual to the imported article. It is not too much to say that Messrs P. und Sons are quite equal to the manufacture of any article n quired lor agricultural purposes in the district, and they are prepared to supply tui-h to order at a considerably less cost than is charged for the imported article. There is an opening for a good Flour Mill in the noighbourlioo I of. Alexandra. There were two or three in tins locality befjro the war. A Brick Manufactory could aijo be started with every prospect of success — and I ara informed t-uch will shortly be done. The dibtnet in vy be s lid to be looking up with a reasonable prospect of luture proepeuty.
