In presenting this, the fourth annual statement, the board of directors wish to call attention to the condition of the association. It growth has been steady and sure, ami so far it has not sustaiued the loss of one dollar. It has furnished money to it members to build nearly sixty houses, enabling them to become property owners iu-stead of rent-payers Its benefi: are strictly mutual, each member getting his pro rata share of the profits. Parties wishing a home of their own can procure one by making monthly payments of about the same amount thev are now paying for houe rent. The fourth series opened July 4, 1885, and parties wishing to build can get stock at anytime.
For full particulars inquire of the Secretary, or any memoer of the Board of Directors.
