Gananoque Reporter. In a trip through the north coun- try this week a representative paid a visit to the quarry of the A. C. Brown Granite Company Limited, situated about five miles west of the village of Lyndhurst, in tht 9th con- cession of Leeds. Several years ago Mr. Alex. C. Brown, investigated this quarry, and convinced that it had a profitable future acquired the property and has operated it successfully since. The property comprises about seven acres of the best granite in the world, excelling, experts claim, the famous Aberdeen granite, and although Mr. Brown, since commencing operations, has taken out 200 carloads, he has but "scratched the surface," and in the same ratio of excavation the sup- ply is good for a thousand years. The quarry is well equipped with derricks for handling large blocks and loading them on trucks for trans- portation to the railway. A 20 h.p. engine supplies power to operate the 8x8 compressor which furmishes air for the drills, and there is a black- smith shop and other buildings. So far Mr. Brown was under the handi- cap of having to ship the rough blocks to Toronto or elsewhere to be polished, and last year he decided | in order to overcome this handicap and obtain the best results, the busi- ness would have to be extended and a polishing plant installed. Applica- tion was therefore made to the On- tario government for a charter for a joint stock company. The charter was granted and the company organ- ized and capitalized at $75,000. The next move was to provide for the necessary expansion, and a splen- did opportunity was afforded in the property of the late Geo. E. Rod- dick in the village of Lyndhurst which was placed in the market. This property was acquired and neg- otiations are now under way for the erection of a polishing plant 30x90 feet equipped with a travelling crane through the building and 50 feet be- yond, and the latest and best in the way of machinery, The Roddick property comprises modern machinery and tools for the manu'acture of every form of mould- ing, sash, doors, &c., and in addition there is a gristmill, sawmill and elec- tric light plant, all in operation. At present the light plant supplies cur- rent for the villages of Lyndhurst and Delta, producing a revenue ot $2,500, and the residents of Seeley's Bay as well as the farmers In the surrounding district are anxious to be served, so that this unit promises excellent results as a revenue-pro- ducer. The close proximity of raw material in the form of endless quan- tities of timber, also affords great possibilities for the wooa-working plants, which, we were Intormed, would shortly include a box making factory for the supply of packing cases, Included with the Roddick pro- perty is water power of 220 h.p., af- fording the cheapest power possible to obtain, and which will enable the ccmpany to operate its polishing plant at a fraction of the cost to com- petitors in the cities, who are not only faced with high power costs, but of high taxes and investment charges. Altogether the prospects of the new company are éxceedingly bright for a largely expanding and profit able career. And these varied In- dustries in active operation will mean a great deal to those residing in and near the village of Lyndhurst. It will also mean increased population. as expert men will have to be brought in to do the polishing.
