FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION A MESSAGE TO CERTIFICATES OF EQUITY ISSUED On and after December 15, 1936, certificates of equity Nos. 84 to 294, inclusive, issue of 1926, will be paid at the office of the Farm Bu reau Co-operative of Hermiston.

Close at Five O’Clock. ‘tr el 1 The Farm Bureu Co-operative and the Grange Co-operative now close at 5:00 o'clock regularly instead of 6:00 o’clock. Patrons are asked to note the change in closing time and get their orders in early. Laundry Closed Thanksgiving. GRÀNGE CO-OP. Revises Articles of Association and By-Laws. At a meeting of the members of the Grange Cooperative held Novem ber 9th for that particular purpose the Articles of Association and By- Laws were completely revised and amended. The revision as finally adopted was in most respects the same as published in the Hermiston Herald just prior to our last regular meet- ing. One important change was in re gard to membership. Under the new set-up not only any farmer or pro ducer of agricultural commodities, but any person whose interests are not in conflict with such farmer or producer may become a member. In other words we are willing to accept as a member any person whose in terests are not in conflict with the objectives of this institution. The reasons for this change should be obvious to all friends of the co operative movement. From an indi vidual standpoint and the stand point of this cooperative we need volume. V. e need the business to lower our overhead to the lowest possible point. We need volume for our better bargaining power in our p rebases. To those who look upon this co- operative as a part o' a nation wide movement affecting the economic welfare of 11 tho peorle. the rea sons for a more inclusive member ship should be even more obvious. We need to make more converts to the cooperative cause. We are asking legislative favors. If we arbitrarily limit our member ship to a particular group or class we are askint for special privilege and class legislation. In opening our doors to a less restricted mem bership. we are adopting a policy pursued by the most successful co- operatives of other countries. Another important change is In our financial set up. We are chang ing from the two per cent revolving fund plan to a stock basis. In doing this we are also following the lead of the most successful cooperatives in this and other countries. Our capital stock is to be limited to $25,000.00, consisting of one thousand shares of the common stock and fifteen hundred shares of preferred, all of the par value of ten dollars ($10.00) each. Of this amount one share and one only shall be sold to each member. This share of stock or an agreement to pur chase same entitles the holder or contractor to one vote and one only. Shares of common stock may be paid for by an assignment of a mem ber’s equity in the association, which include his $1.00 membership if he has paid same, his contribution to the two per cent revolving fund and his earned patronage refunds. If this Is not sufficient he may pay the balance in cash and receive his share of stock immediately or he may sign an application and allow his future patronage refunds to pay it out. But no share of stock shall be issued until fully paid for. This ap plication or agreement to purchase, however, entitles him to member ship and the voting privilege. Common stock may receive not to exceed eight per cent dividends when and as declared by the board of directors. cilities added. The producers of the area served by this association do a greater percentage of their business of all kinds cooperatively than pro ducers in any other territory of wes tern United States. During 1935, 526,634 pounds of butter were sold for $150,654.97. The association has assets slightly in excess of $38,000.00 and net worth, or members’ equity, of $30,- 280.00. The Hermiston Co-operative Laun dry will be closed on Thanksgiving day. No wash periods will be avail able on that day. O. L. Barlow an nounced this week. CANNING, DECEMBER 3.

BASKETBALL TEAMS SCHEDULE GAMES November twenty-third was the date set for the initial practice for the 1936-37 edition of the Bulldog basketball team, On that date suits were issued and practice begun. Since Hermiston had no team last year it is somewhat difficult to pre dict just what the boys will be able to do. This year there will usually be three games when a date is sche duled for the home court. In addi tion to the first team, the girls will have a team and play nearby schools and the junior high boys’ team will furnish the third team for an even ing's games. A complete schedule has not been written but a number of games have been listed and in the course of the next two weeks it is hoped to com plete the season's schedule.
