The Association will collect and supply to the sharehold rs agricultural and other staiietics, prompt, disinterested, and reliable information as to tbe Btate of and advantages offered by the various markets throughout the world. Tne Association will seek to any it&e f with other kindred institution*, and so, by sharing the cost of agency in British and fov«i n markets, reduce sucb costs, wMle increasing correspondingly the advantages to shareholders.
