Patronage dividend.
Section 29
SEC. 29. Patronage dividend.—The net profits of the association, over and above expenses and dividends on membership capital, or capital stock actually subscribed and paid, shall be distributed as patronage dividend among the members or owners of common stock thereof, in proportion to the value or volume of agricultural products sold to or through the association during the period for which such apportionment is made; but this provision shall not be construed to prevent the setting aside a part of the net profits to a surplus fund for the benefit of the association.
