/The Farmers' Union trading Co. (Auckland) LIMITED. (Who Croud jour Money full of Quality.) . NOTHER Store has now been added to the Company's chain of distributing depots, viz; the Business of Mr. Wm. ROULSTON, and we wish to notify Shareholders and the public in general, that in taking over the business we are retaining the same Staff, and have appointed Mr. J. G. Russell as General Manager of the Pukekohe Depot, so you will be cheerfully greeted by the same Departmental Managers, and Sales people as hitherto. ARMERS and country residents who have not yet taken Shares in the Farmers' Union Trading Company will be wise if they make " early application. On Ordinary Shares, a dividend of 8 per cent, free of income tax was paid last year, and this rate the Directors intend to maintain. The substantial rebates guaranteed t' by the Company last December pre also still being allowed off shareholders' purchases. These 'tf§-range from 2\ per cent, off Groceries, Flour id Kerosene, to 5 per cent, off Drapery, , Furniture. Bedding, Boots, Saddlery, y, Stationery, Farm Implements, Seeds, irockery, and Hardware (except roofing iron, wire cement, lime and galvanised piping). r why the Farmers' Fnion Trading Company can pay such rebates one must remember that it is a co-operative, and not a private concern. The shareholders i both owneis and customers, and after paying Tking expenses the whole of the profit goes to «r * the shareholders in dividends and rebates, or in reserves that strengthen the Company and increase the value of its Shares. These reserves, it should J>e noted, belong exclusively to the ordinary share--2-lfcolders, as the Company's Articles of Association iccially provide that no preference shareholder fh ever gain any benefit from them. The strong position of the ordinary shareholder is no Sfefcidoubt one of the cheif leasons why the £l f " Ordinary Shares of the Company are in such great demand. As these Shares are still being offered * t at par, every one who intends to become a shareholder should apply at once to the Company for a •reasonable holding.
