Again, the Report of Her Majesty's Commissioners of Woods and
Forests rrouounces " the prinelp'e involved" to be " national."
The establishment of this Company may therefore be regarded as
the commencement of a system fraught with great national benefits,
contemplating not only profi, upon invested capital, but increased
comfort and improved health to the inhabitants of towns, and Ines-
timable advantages to the azriculture of the United Kingdom.
The most careful calculation that has been mule, exhibits a profit
of from 15 to 20 per cent.; this calculation was based upon the esti-
mated supply of Sewage to 39,000 acres, but since that Vine Farmers,
Market Gardeners, and Landowners, cultivating about 68,000 acres
of land have, by petition to Parliament, expressed their anxiety to
take a supply of Sewage Manure from the Company.
The Act of Incorporation requires that at least three months'
notice shall elapse between the Call, which shall not exceed 21. 10s.
