It is not in the labour market only that su advantage will be obtained. Coal and other materials can be purchased in this country at a lower rato thua in the United Stulze.

The Company will be capable of supplying a watch of the best workmanship to the population of those largo and important countries at a prico far balow any watch of like character that has ever been offered to these markets.
