The demand for newspapers and magazines is multiplying yearly and with the opening of schools in all the Provinces and the general demand for Western knowledge a considerable increase of paper manufacture is necessarily expected. There will, therefore, be no difficulty in disposing of the entire output of the mill at remu ne.ative rates. Already tentative enquiries have been mailo by influential dealers to dispose of the Company's entire output.
Careful estimates lead to the expectation that a paper mill producing say 5) tons of paper per week, will yield a dividend of at least 15 to 20 per cent to the Shareholders; this is considered to be a most conservative. estimate. Existing enterprises similar in nature prove that this estimate can easily be realised. The other departments when taken up will probably yield even larger results than the above,
