That the company will have practically an unlimited quantity of granite of finest quality; 2. That the quality of this granite is equal to the best gray granite quarried anywhere on this continent. 3.

That freight rates to marketing points are favorable to Ashland within a territory greater than the five western states. 6. That all points likely to affect the prosperity of this business have been fully covered and that there is every reason to expect a splendid development of much benefit to the com­ munity and yielding good dividends to investors.
