ADVANTAGES ofthk ASSOCIATION ; Thai A»wchrticn;i» projected at the instanee of Farmers j*no~ Producers] genetely.ui order to secure to them by cooperation, the benefits of interchange, which hate hitherto gone to the merchant and distributer alone. ; By co operation in the formation of the Association the farmer, the- dairy-, man, the froit-j?rpwer, the saw-miller and flax-miller, ~ the wool-grower, other { prod«cen,and th« Shareholders Renerally may sell their, produce, and buy most'fcyorable markets. ■ ... ?.;.., The profits of the Association, after payment of expenses, will belong to and be distributed amongst the Shareholders. Subsciribers'will thus obtain for produce die full Market value in the Markets of the World.tubject only ; 1»> payment of expenses, and a certain fixed percentage in order to enable the.

The. experiences of similar enterprises in the Colony have shown them to be ; not, only dividend paying, but productive "°oT~"inany"' collateral the Producer; minimising as they do all charges, they necessarily eompeVmetchants and ship-owning firms to lower to a reasonable point their rates of profit, 'commissions; freights, Ac---.Bit*; 'shot;:, that the : Mew Zealand'. Faraer's - Association- ■ of Canterbury (Christchurch), last year had a total profit of £10,804 5s 5d to distribute, and that the Canterbury Farmers' Association (Timara), and other similar Associations are all in a most satufaetoty-financial condition, speaks for itself as to the safety of the eapital to be embarked. . The central position of the City of Wellington and its-magnificent capacity tor the eheen distribution of .products to all parts of the world, marks it out prominently as the natural centre for the present Company's operations.- The recent connection of the City with Ipvi.iinvni)H"u-i; ■ iTj i■• hi Kivm' lines of railway, will enable the settlers in these districts to share equally in the advantages, which will accrue to sharehoMers in, the; Wellington Provincial District from hasring at their door the beat and cheapest Harbor in the Colony m a distnbutuV centre.
