Tito Penobscot Pomona Grange com
pany was recently organized and has a
capit il of $200,000 for the purpose of
dealing In groceries, grains and Seeds
and all sorts of farm supplies. It
also intends to buy and sell farm prod
uce on commission, and there is a pos
sibility that a cold storage plant will
be erected in Bangor by the same com
pany iu the near future.
The movement which resulted in the
organization of the Penobscot Pomona
Grunge company was started by some
or the leading Patrons of Penobscot
county who believed that greater co
operation among the farmers in the
vicinity of Bangor would be greatly to
their mutual advantage. Their aim
1m to advance their own interests with
out disturbing With this idea
in view*they.have adopted some gen
eral rules of trade, which seem entirely
plausible ami businesslike. They pro
pose to do a strictly cash business and
uell goods at the average retail mar
ket price, and any profits which accrue
. running expenses and interest
, capital are to be divided among the
j roils In proportion to the amount of
t* -ir purchases at the store, a settle
