In soiiip of (hi! "Waikato districts the set tiers have liccn impressed with the doctrines Mr NY. A. (1 rnh,am lias hcen instilling into then so zca.louslv on the importance of engaging in the culture of sugar-heel. Those residing on the Waqn River testify their willingness to enter into the required engagement to lay down the, ncccssarv area, of land in root crop provided a factory for the. manufacture of sugar is established at Ngaruawahia, to which place they could convey their crops cheaply by water, and at a cost that would yield them more satisfactory returns than if they forwarded them either hy rail or water to I lamilton. Mr Graham has, however, already pointed out that there is ample room for two or more factories in the Waikato. What is needed in the initial stage of the movement is, for the fanners to federate together and give the guarantee they are asked to give to grow a certain quantity of sugarbeet. On this being done, Mr Graham’s proposed company will then he encouraged to enter into active operations, and will take measures to meet all the requirements of the districts generally.
