The profits of the Association, nfter payment to shareholders of a dividend not exceeding Beven and a half per cent, ppr 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 rpports of other similar Associations show the satisfactory financial results which mny 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 k safe investment for capital, that the West Coast Farmers' Co-Operative Association may become, not only a source 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.
