I’ would like to explain the reasons
which led to our decision to invite the
public to become our partners. .

It has been our

OurConlpany is in an unusually strong

shipping facilities; our modern ware;
house, mill and grain 'elevator‘wer‘e built
only three years ago. We have an em-
cient and harmonious organisation,- com-
posed of men and women who have been
_with us since we started; and as growth
demanded, more employees were added to
our force, each addition becoming a perm-
anent member of our institution

years. :Tllo- normal. growth of their in-

ital limits our buying power withxhich to
supply our trade. We must either in-
crease our working capital or see this de-
mand of our own customers pass to other
‘ hands. Our conclusion was natural—WE
WILL INCREASE OUR W0 RKIN 6‘

This decided -— our next thought was
how 80 do it. We considered Bonds back- .
