Gummies Bush Flaxmill

Gummies Bush Flaxmill (Alexander Sutherland, proprietor), Riverton. This mill was started in 1904, and is moved about to different parts of the district, as the flax gets cut out. The plant consists of a ten horse-power portable engine, stripper, and usual accessories; and the scutching is done in Invercargill. Sixteen persons are employed in connection with the mill.
