on a sufficiently terge scale to ensure hand some profits on the products of the manufactory was first recognised, and after consideration It was decided to raise the necessary addi} tional funds by the issue of new shares, increasing the capital to one million dollars. These shares were applied for several times over, and it is significant of the public confidence in the bond fide character of the business, that scrip on which only $ had been paid up was freely purchased in the local share market at as high $15. This is, in brief, the history up to date of the Green Island Cement Company, and as the business is now passing from the preparatory to the active stage and will in a very short period of time become an active factor in the gigantic reclamation and other works under way in this colony, I propose giving sketch detalling a recent visit to Green faland. wha: I saw there, and the conclusions arrived at from careful personal observations.

The machine shop, which was the first building we inspected, is a substantial two- storied Buick structure, 150 feet by 25, and has been designed to contain the entire machinery completing the plant for an output of 25 tons per day. This plant comprises no fea er than twenty- one different achines, in addition to a number of clevers for lifting the material from floor to for transporting it to various parts of the barding, and finally conveying it to the s'ore
The machines are grouped in sets Reciding to their respective functions and in such a way as to minimise labour and supervision, the whole of the operations in the manufacture of cement beingr ndered as automaticas possihic. Some of these machines are of a massive d-cretion, weighing many tons, and they crush the blocks of limestone as if they were biscuits; the limestone as it passes through the various machines is reduced to the finest powder. Several of the processes grind the material, others crush it, and others again beat it Into fragments. All the combinations of material are in great measure effected by machinery, This machinery is driven by two engines, com bined exciting over two hundred horse-p-wer, which is transmitted by lines of shafting ex-nd- ing the tire length of betting, and a perfect kanüze of belting..
