Small or poor growers may be admitted with a 
nominal payment, even as low as 25 cents,

duction from his proceeds. 
The association and management can also 
fill the assembled orders of members for fertil- 
izer, seed, implements and packing material, 
at wholesale prices. In time you will make 
your own boxes, erect a cannery for the surplus 
and even buy your own groceries co-operatively. 
You can form a credit society with unlimited 
liability, to receive on deposit the members’ 
surplus and borrow from the city. That money 
is lent, for productive uses only, to members of 
known ability and honesty, who give two 
similar members as security. 
When you get safely started in one kind of 
co-operative association, you will easily go to 
the next, as the Danes and the Irish have done.
