FARMERS’ UNION TRADING GO’S n PER CENT, BONDS. A HELPFUL AND PROFITABLE INVESTMENT. In normal times those who have money to invest have no difficulty in deciding upon how that money shall bo placed, but when, as at the present time, there exists a certain amount of financial pressure it is advisable to consider two very material points. The first matter on which it is necessary to bo satisfied is Naturally that ol' security, while the next is tho return obtainable for the investment. Assuming these preliminaries are satisfactorily accounted for, there is yet another factor that should receive eon sideration, namely, whother, all other, things being equal, the investment should be made so iis to he of direct help to some undertaking that is of importance to the welfare of the Dominion. It so happens that all these influences are strikingly existent in connection with the issue of a quarter of a million bonds, bearing interest at 7-1- per cent., now offered by the Farmers’ Union Trading Co. (Auckland), Ltd. The farming community, is regarded, and rightly so, as the backbone of the country, and in general are more investors than borrowers, but through tho temporary fall in several lines ol' produce they are temporarily obliged to husband their resources, hence the public liavo the opportunity not only of investing in very profitable securities, but of assisting this co-operative concern to expand its business. and its utility as a factor in the prosperity of those engaged in farming pursuits. f The Farmers’ Union Trading Company, Auckland, has a subscribed capital of £568,460, of which £157,117 is uncalled, so that the bond-holders have a very substantial security, for though they have no specific charge on the assets, they rank in the priority to all shareholders. The business shows a steady and solid growth, and the interest offered (7f per cent.) is sufficiently tempting to attract investors. The bonds, which are repayable at four or eight years at the option of tho purchaser, are of the value of £25, £SO, or. £IOO, and tho secretary of the Company will gladly furnish • all information required. Prospectus and application form can be obtained from any branch of the Bank of New Zealand or direct from the Farmers’ Union Trading Co., Ltd.*
