Speciai to TimeS-Republlcan.
Rockwell, March 10.-The Rockwell
cooperative society, the parent of the
entire cooperative movement of the
northwest, celebrated it's nineteenth
anniversary in the annual meeting at
this place. 1t was the occasion of the
gathering of over 200 farmers and their
families The business consisted of
hearing the report Of the secretary and
discussing the business Of the coming
year. Next year the society's charter
will expire. and 1t is the plan to reor-
ganize and increase the capital stock
from $4,000 to $4,000 then.
The business of the society fell off
this year about $4,000 in the total, in
comparison with last year. The to-
tai business this year was $4SO,363.10.
as compared with S514.331.76 of last
year The reason for this loss is the
fact that not a bushel of home grown
corn was shipped from the elevator.
In this item there is a falling off of
10000 bushels, and a slump of $4,000
bushels in oats. The total profit of the
society this year amounts to $4,000.
