COOPERATIVE STORES.
Editor Patron: In response again to
Patrons desiring to organize Cooperative
Stores on the Rochdale plan, we beg to
refer them to the National Grange Digest,
pages 25-3S. They will find therein com
Pete rules and forms governing the same.
In all such enterprises, if inaugurated at
convenient points where patronage can be
secured and due regard is observed against
overlooking with unstable goods, success
Is assured If one principle is infexibLy ad
hered to, and that is cash, cash, cash! These
stores are not intended to antagonize neigh
boring stores, conducted upon different
plans. The beauty and attraction of such
enterprises are found in the fact that each
purchaser has share in all profits, PRO rata
10 amount of purchases.
We have few copies of the Digest in
our effce, which will be forwarded to any

the interview:

properly reviewed and justice done. The

of the general land Office will suit our peo-
