To THE MEMBERS, Ws beg to submit to you the 118th Quarterly Report and Balance Sheet. The total Receipts for Goods sold during the Quarter is E89,127 4s. 84d., being an increase of E5,066 16s. 4&d. over the corresponding Quarter of last year. The net profit on the Quarter's Business is $4,809 17s. 7d., which sum will allow 6962 16s. Ol.d. for Interest, E,2,891 18s. 4d. as Dividend, being ls. Sd. per 8 on Members* purchases, and E81 being Sd. per 6 on purchases of bien-Members; 692 Os. Sd., being 2&7. per annum for depreciation of Branch and Cottage Property; $93 9s. Sd. be 10$ depreciation of Fixed Stock; 656 being 5$ depreciation of Milling plant; $48 2s. 6d. for Educational Purposes; $15 for Congress Fund; and $119 15s. 114d. to Reserve Fund. 207 persons have joined the Society within the Quarter, 66 have withdrawn, and 4 forfeited as per Rule 6, making the present number 6,260, being an increase of 187 over last Quarter. Plans are being prepared for providing additional accommodation at the Welbourn and Metheringham Branches. The magnitude of the present trade and the prospective increase at each place, justify us in taking this course. When the extensions are finished, goods in bulk will be invoiced wholesale to each Branch, as this plan of supplying them has now become preferable to the present, which is best suited to a smaller trade, and to branches nearer to the Central Stores, from which daily supphes cau be sent as required. The following figures show the progress tuade by the two branches during the last seven years:— 1886. 1890. Wtdbourn ... ... ... Sales. Profits. Sales. Profits. $4,088 8225 67,628 6506 1886. 1890.

The exhibition will remain open during the Congress Sittings. Arrangements can be made through the Manager of the Drapery and Furnishing Departments for funerals to be undertake throughou& As tlds business has been started at the written request of several Members, we trust to receive EB orders that any unfortunately„ through bereavement, be compelled to give.
