COOPERATIVE STORES.

To the mind prepared by the vision
OF the poor son Of toll, lily paid at best,
who receives at the end OF his week or
month Of service an order from his
employer on a store conducted by
that same employer, in lieu of wages /;
who isrequired to 40 his trading at that
establishment so that the profits there
of may 90 to benefit the person or
company who is already making one
profit of his labor; who seldom sees
a coin that he can claim as his own;
and who is, in TACT no better than the
slave Of his "boss, save that he can
leave his employ if be can ever square
his store account to such a mind the
contemplation Of corporation store
run MS those OF the Vermont Marble
company are now run comes with a
thrill Of deep satisfaction.
The stores OF this company, under
the old system, were never what the
Imagination Of some people, deceived
by others for a purpose, pictured them.
No employe was required in any
way to trade at them. The men were
not paid in orders. The stores sold
goods at a small margin OF profit in
close competition with other stores,
either in the same village or close at
hand. The prime purpose OF their
establishment was the convenience OF
the employees. Nevertheless. it was
inevitable that there should be some
misconception.
In order to give the fullest assur-
ance that il was acting in good faith
for the benefit Of its workingmen. the
Vermont Marble company May !.
1903, undertook an experiment in the
direction Of making these stores CO.
operative. Hon. Frank c. Partridge
writes interestingly OF the result in the
current Nermouter.
The company sim provides the capt.
tai and the personnel for the manage
ment OF the stores. For the use OF the"
capital, it receives four per cent per
year. 70 also receives rental for the
store property. The salaries are paid
from the receipts, OF course. Goods
are sold at staple market prices. At
the end OF the year the profits are
divided among the employees according
% their total trade at the store. A /
committee from the workmen assists
in the division Of the profits, 50 that
