By adopting the principle of cooperation in the formation of the Association, farmers, graziers, flaxmillers, and all other producers whe are shareholders and constituents, may sell their products and buj what farm and station requisites they severally require in the most favourable markets, and at the same time share in the profits ot the Association, which, after payment of all expense 3> will belong to and be distributed amongst the shareholders. The Association will collect and supply to the shareholders agricultural and other statistics, prompt, disinterested, and reliable information as to the state of and advantages offered by the various markets throughout the world. Tne Association will seek to ally itself with other kindred institutions, and so, by sharing the cost of agency in British and foreign markets, reduce such co^ts, while increasing correspondingly the advantages to shareholders. . The profits of the Association, afterpayment to shareholders of a dividend not exceeding seven and a half per cent, per annum, and after making provision for writing off so much of. the assets of the Association as may be deemed advisable and providing for a reserve fund, will be divided amongst the shareholders, according to the amount of business done by each with the Association, may from time to time be approved of by a majority of shareholders at a j general meeting of the Association. The annual reports of other similar Associations show the satisfactory financial results which mny be attained by such enterprises, aud induces the belief in the minds of the promoters that equally satisfactory results may be achieved in this part of the co'ony, and while offering a safe investment for capital, that the West Coast Farmer** Co-Op< rative Association may become, not only a eonrco of profit to its shareholders and constituents, but also a great aud permanent benefit to tho farmers, graziers, and producers of ilio West Coast generally.
