Effective today we are calling In for payment all aeries 12 Capital Reserve Certificates Issued on the 1933
crop Please endorse and mail in to us or bring personally, all the series 12 certificates you have on hand. In ex
change we will give you a. check for the face amount of these securities or, If you wish, will issue you Class A
Preferred Stock bearing 5 percent Interest In units of $50.00 per share. Please advise If you want cash or stock.
This money was credited to you as your share of the profits made during the 1953 crop year on the basis of
patronage. Again we wish to point out that our storage charges were no higher and our buying price were no
lower than any of our competitors during 1953. This refund or payment is therefore an addition to your Income
for that year, over and above what you would have received had someone else handled your grain. The total pay
ment to all growers will amount to about $125,000.00 and should prove a real boost to our county's economy.
You were required to pay federal income taxes on this sum when it was issued so no more federal taxes
will need be paid if you can show these earnings were declared when you filed your tax report.
The money for this payment comes from later years' profits and we will continue such retirements as earn
ings build up new investments through retention of the earnings of later patrons. Many thanks for your patron
age and friendship.
