ADVANTAGES OF THE ASSOCIATION. To secure to the farmers, graziers, and producprs of the West Coast, by co-operatson, tne benefits of interchange, which have hitherto gone to ihe agents w distributors a ona. By adopting the principle of cooperation in the formation of the Afipociation, farmers, graziers, flaxmillers, and all other producers who are shareholders and constituents, may sell their products and buy 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 expens63, will belong to and be distributed amongst the shareholders. The Association will collect and supply to the sharehold rs agricultural nnd other statistics, prompt, disinterested, and re'iable information as to the state of and advantages offered by the various uiarkats throughout the world. Tne Association will seek to ally t&e f with other kindred institutions nd so, by sharing the cost of agency -'n British and foiei n markets, reduce such co*ts, while increasing flnr> espondingly the advantages to shareholders. The profits of the Association, afterpayment to shareholders of a dividend not exceeding seven and n 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 general meeting of the Association. The annual reports of other similnr Associations show the satisfactory financial results which may be attained by such enterprises, and induces the belief in the minds of the promoters that equally satisfactory results may be achieved in this part of the colony, and while offering a safe investment for capital, that the West Coast Farmers' 00-Operative Association may become, not only a souroe of profit to its shareholders and constituents, but also a great and permanent benefit to the farmers, graziers, and producers of the West Coast generally.
