    The correct answer is option number one: to spread out over a wide number of people.

    For context clues notice how the author of the included text mentions 'as peddlers do with goods for the benefit of others' right before mentioning that in the same way the people who supply themselves with information lay up stores in 'order to diffuse them for the benefit of society in general' just as peddlers of goods do with their wares.
