Tho Object of this Association is tho eßtablis ment ot a Co-operative Store, suitable to the re quirements of .he times. The Promoters having watched the working of similar institutions in the Old Country, believe that the time has now arrived for successfully floating a Company in New Zea land for the supply ot Goods and Merchandise of nil descriptions. Tho Company will also act as Agents or other wise for the sale of Produce of all kinds, and thereby assist the settlers in disposing of their commodities, and also for all other residents in country places who live too far away to make frequent visits to town. The Company being in a position to buy largely, and for oash, will be able to guarantee tho quality of the goods sent out, and at fair and reasonble prices, j Facilities will also be given to promote the j sale of Local Manufacturers whenever it can be I done in the interests of tbe Shareholders. It is believed that too often local industries suffer from the want of a proper channel to introduce their Goods, and not that the articles manufac tured are inferior or dearer than those imported. To meet these requirements, and to present to all classes of the community a safe and profit able investment for capital, are the objects songht in the formation of this Association. The operation of the Company willbe conduct ed by thoroughly practical business men, every detail will be carefully examined and treated economically; profits after paying the dividends to the sharenolderß, will be divided among the Shareholders and Tioket-holders; the accounts will be audited quarterly by a publio account ant, to bo chosen by the Shareholders and Shareholders will be entitled to aU the advantages afforded at the stores, to a share in the profits as hereinafter specified, and will have i the power of nominating Ticket-holders— not exceeding four — each Ticket-holder to pay two shillings and sixpence annually, or. ten shillings for five years, and Life Members a payment of twenty shillings, for the privilege of dealing at. tho depots of the Associa tion and of sharing in the profits.' The Directors reserve the power to limit the number of Ticket holders from time to time. ■ Every Shareholder and Ticket-holder, to save the trouble and expense of sending money occa sionally through the post, will be able to open a deposit orderaccount atthe stores.and purchases made from time to time will be debited thereto. The balance at credit can be withdrawn in cash at any time. These accounts will not bear interest. Money will also be received on deposit In sums ot not less than £1, on which interest will be allowed at the rate of 6 per cent, per annum on sums that have remained on deposit one calendar month, r , From the net profits 10 per cent, interest will be paid as a first charge on the paid-up share catiltal, and the balance will bo divided as follows:— - fl One-fourth to the formation of a reserve fund. One-half as a dividend to the.Shareholders. A bonus, equal to the remaining one-fourth, willbe paid "pro rata" to tha Ticket holders who shall have purchased, daring the year, goods to-the extent of £25, and upwards, from the Association. When the reserve fund shall have reached the earn of £10,000, all farther addition thereto will cease, and the said one-fourth of the balance of the nett profits will be applied to increasing the dividend to the Shareholders, and the bonus to the Tioket-holders. Companies with similar objects in view in England have, under good management, at tained the most complete succeis. According to published reports, a Supply Association, whose business was commencad "in the early part at 1872, made returns the first year of £13},000, second year £280,000. and third year £130,000, and it is a well-established fact that such Societies in. the Old Country, when man aged properly.sare .classed*among the mo3t useful as well as the most profitable undertak ings of the present time.' Estimated Return fob First Year. •" " £sd &a d Say 1000 onstomers, each laying "y out, per week, on an average, 20s (some would buy much more and some less than that amount) .. .p.-' .. ~"..% *100Q 0 0 Say profit on £1000 at 10 per 5s cent. „ .. -.^...4100 0 0 Deduct weekly expensesSbut !; amuchlargerbuainessmight :_■_:.■ x ■.. _i bo done without increasing -.'. ■..'■■ this staff), say WOO Shewing probable net profit —; — per week _ _- -. -. £fy 0 0 Bnt it may reasonably be expected tht a muoh larger weekly return would Boon be the result when once the Company got Into full working order. As will he seen by, taking the figures of the Jast census ,in . 1878,* there were then 16,318 inhabited houses in the Provincial District of Auckland; If, therefore, the Company obtained, say, only a fourth part of these, reckonina one family to one house, that would produce 1079 customers, which number, calculated in the same proportion as above, would produce a gros3 profit of £107 weekly, in stead of £100. And even if these results are not obtained at first, yet the estimate shows a wide field for the operations of the Company beinp worked with profit at its commencement, and with every reasonable prospect of most satisfac tory results when in fall operation. Moreover, the above , calculation does not take into account the population in vessels on the' night of the census being taken in the Provincial District ot Auckland, whloh -was then 3067. neither does it take into account the native population, nor the popula tion in other Provinces in New Zealand, amounting, in addition, to the number of 331,751, and from whom tha Company may fairly expect occasional orders.* The whole European population was In 1818, 114,112—less the number in Auckland district, 82,661-331, 751.* - r " With such'prospects it will readily be seen from the above data that the Shareholders in such a Company must realise large profits, and, In addition, be able to get their supplies at the loweßt possible rates, in fact every Shareholder will be his own Importer, and benefit accord ingly. '■ * '■ Application of Shares, or for further infor mation, can be made to the broker,''Mr A.
