As it becomes necessary to cs- j _ | tabllah a Sinking Fund for each aerial, [ \ the whole a»ocirllon will in time boi conic a Sinking F utnl and its cliarac- . ! tcr and features entirely destroyed. There are many other objection, but | them will suffice fur tlw present. The second method mentioned for tlui payment of the different scries, and tho one univcraolly adopted, it the payment of premiunts for the ! withdrawal of stock This method j hucm thoroughly letted and hat. found t* accomplish folly the nl>- ! ject desired. The plan is this:— Mem- I not having borrowetl loans, dcair- 1 ; Ing lo withdraw their stock, can do so j ; on a month's notice, when they will n> I ctive back aa folluwa^dariug the first . : mid vcomV years the amouut of dun < j pakl in, after deducting fines and their i ! proiurtion of espouse* and Ihsmi: anil ! other charge*, after the aeries which i | they withdraw from has bocn hi exist- i | 3 yeare they rood re In addition 1 j tbo above, 3U per cent ofthe profit.; 1 After 3 years 30 per cent; after I ' yeare, 40 per oent; after o yeare, M per cent; oiler 0 yeare, 00 per cent; afj 7 years, 70 per cent; after 8 years, per cent. { This la bawxlon a Uu yeare runulu-. our ptceent profits wc can bake ' j calculation on eight yeare running, 1 I and can pay oa follows: — i After 3 years, 33 per cent of the pro- I after 3 years, 37# per cent; after 4 1 j years, .V) per cent; after 3 years, 03j 1 •.par cent; after 0 years, 75 per ixnl;ul- 1 j tor 7 years, 87 j per cent. In Uie adoption of this plan It is 00ev.Mtry to cl-tse op each aerlea of stock 1 and admit no new members on that ' .erirs after ll baa been running a year, 1 ami also to issue new aeries at hwat 1 each year and try to make each series ' , uu iu Drat year a. full as pwajble. It I ;Aelll work with us In thit way:—* I A member desiring In withdraw his ' Wk no the 3th year, will rhgrive 87?1>wjddi will give lii in an hntul I uTiaDbul 33 per cmt. He lui- ' mediately tsluw aa many or more shares ' of stock in n new scries, thus the re- 1 I cciplt of tlie association are not Iroacn- ' ril, ami each srrie* la paid off gradually, ' ^frilhout Finlitrrauing tbe aasoclalion. ' ' We l^ive aliout IW shares of stock hi 1 ! ll*- l.tsrrica which have not hero h r- | 1 roweil, and about .V) which have bout ' ' borrowed; ami cHre.-ijurntly, ir llwy 1 | run to the end, will bare 830,0W la I I pay. Xow, by the withdraws! pktn, ' 1 there will be very few .hare* left to ' | oH and the series' will ran out much j sooner. Suppose SO of these ilore* ^-Imiild la- withdrawn during this pre a- ' ■ cut year. The actual gain has l.vn ' ' (40.3il on earli share of-wlileh will re1 reive/O cenl . This wftT glsc the I SO tliarrs 81384, of lire |>rofit. and the 1 ' same nmoanl will lis left in the aa*oci»i tlnn to he divided among tho remain 1 Ing 30 shares which will Increnac tha ' j value of each share 813.34. nod lesson ' ; tbeir running time about ti monlht. — 1 j are many other adrautagn in this plan which I have not spare lo | j hero bat will explain m ore folly ' ; at a iuIua- time. Hie third im-Alwd mlopled tu pay off : tlie expiring eerirt Is tlie compelling ' vat h uu inl*w lo l-'ii or on Ins share*. ' This Is a prevalent miTKoJ'ln many ' sections, and It being ail Apied in a great ' many aasociatlons In connection a ith th- withdrawal plan. Each member It required lo take a loan, or a certain perorolagc la dsiluclid from Ilie 83110, wlicti Uu stock expiree. There three inetluds am Uu uuly (dan* yet adopted fir the payment of ; the rerira as they expire. Another ubjcctlnn to tbe series phut Is the difficulty of arriviug at a corrrei value ofthe dltli-rent aeries ol slock. I his matter luta been tbe rahjret of exteniive ditenstioa among the mrmhcre of our aareciation for the ;aut few wrokt, and tlurefore I have spent a great deal of time and labor In getting all poaaibln informalioa on this subject thht might be of henefit to our as.
