THE ADVANTAGES OF Co-Operation. THE Manager of the Poverty Bay Farmers’ Co-operative Association would respectfully direct the attention of all concerned to the advantages to be gained by becoming Shareholders and Patrons of the Association. In the first place all customers have the advantage of a Cash system, which enables them to make purchases without hav.og to pay for the remissness of “long-winded” customers. The general public thus have a great inducement. Shareholders have the additional inducement that they participate in an annual division of profits, which is made fr> rata on the purchases, the largest purchaser having his share based on his purchases, while each shareholder also has the benefit of his capital account according to the number of shares held by him. The Association disposes of all classes of goods in the Produce and Grocery lines, and has the same advantages in buying as the large wholesale houses, as it has the privilege of co-operating with the flourishing Southern Associations. A limited number of shares is still available. Residents are respectfully asked to give the Store a turn, and judge for themselves as to the great advantages offered. DELIVERY OF GOODS MADE TO ANY PART OF THE TOWN. Stokes: Gladstone Road/Gisborne. Manager: J. Lewis.
