Reports showing that very salts
factory progress has been made dur

Der of the board of directors is DIR.
L. S. Cleaves of Bar Harbor.
The reports of the treasurer and
secretary-manager showed an IN
crease in the amount of wool han
died and an increase in the amount
manufactured. The reports also
pointed out that the goods have COW
cred q very much wider market than
ever before, requiring plans making
It possible for a supply that would
equal the increase.
The association has shown very
satisfactory and substantial increase
in membership. with an increase CT

The most important question dis

earnings or dividends above that
should be retained by the associa-
ton until a sufficient fund had been
accumulated to supply ample funds
for carrying on the business on q
strictly cash basis, which would
mean that after a period OF one or
two years each member would re-

of the organizations:

"As there was no special work
done to secure members this in
crease seems entirely satisfactory,
also indicates increasing interest
and confidence in our association.
During the four years we have
been operating, our energies have
been entirely devoted to working
out plans to establish the business
on a sound, economical basis worthy
of the confidence and support of
the members, fully realizing that
thew are the life blood of the entire
structure.
"Our facilities for marketing raw
or grease wool have improved stead
lily each year until we now are able
to handle a much larger volume than
ever before, and with proper finan-
cial arrangements we will be in
position to obtain the highest posi-
BILE price for our members.
"In view of the steady growth In
membership each year and the indi-
cations for a much alrger increase
than any previous year we feel justt-
fed in prophesying that this will
prove to be our banner year for
progress and prosperity.

session of the state grange In 1920

part Of our suitings is tailored into
suits and shipped into many states.
beginning with few customers,
mostly among members of the asso-
citation. we have continuously added
to our list until during the past year
we have sold and shipped goods into
forty different states, and we shall
endeavor to cover the remaining
eight states during the coming year.
That the quality of our products is
entirely satisfactory is evidenced by
the fact that in nearly every instance
when goods are shipped into new ter
ritor further orders and inquiries
from neighbors and friends follow.
I'm viewing our past records which
show a steady advance in growth of
members. as well as in the volume Of
goods manufactured which has not
