F, HOOPER- SELLS OUT TO N, W. TREWARTHA Mr, C. F« Hooper has this week disposed of his new laid egg business to Mr. N. W. Trewartha, of Clinton, who gets possession March 4 th. IMr. Hooper was one of the first to see the. falacy of the old system of marketing eggs, and in 1928 he started out with a basket under his arm to lay the foundation for a suc­ cessful new laid egg business. Long before egg grading was ser­ iously considered Mr. Ho.oper con­ ceived the idea, that,the egg business could be greatly Improved and con­ sequently started out in a small way to establish strictly new laid egg business. Such was the demand for eggs of the right quality that Mr. Hooper saw his business grow by leaps and bounds. I-Ie had difficulty at first in educating the producer to use the proper care in the handling of eggs, but he stuck to his policy of handling only the best and during the past ten years he has paid out to the farmers on the average of $55,700 a year, or during the period he has been in business he has paid to the farmers alone over $1,000,000 In 1908 Mr. Hooper started out in a small way gathering from house to house around town. In 1911 he placed wagons on the road and in 1912 he purchased the residence on the corner of Andrew and Johns Sts. and for a number or years there he did a thriving business. After 11 years on this corner Mr. Hooper purchased property on Main Street, where for years the old Royal hotel stood. These buildings were torn, down and a splendid .dwelling and store have ity. In hibit tional Exhibition and he carried off first prize and diploma against an | entry of 12,000 dozen eggs. In 1917 '• he was awarded first prize and sweepstakes for best exhibit at To­ ronto. He won the same- awards at Ottawa and London and in six diff- G^ent^exhibits he was never beaten. In 1923 shortly after the grading law came into effect Mr. I-Iooper se­ cured a special trade mark “Hoop­ er’s New Laid Eggs.” This trade mark was taken out because Mr. Hooper had' been specializing in new laid eggs for more than 15 years. One of the secrets of Mr. Hooper’s success was the prices paid to the farmer’s, he having always paid highest market prices. The highest price he ever paid was during Xmas, week, 1920, when he paid $1.00 a doz. The biggest day he ever had was on, a Saturday between Good Friday and Easter when he took in (Continued on page four.) erected on the property that been a credit to the municipal- 1915 Mr. Hooper had an ex- of eggs at the Canadian Na- ices moderates o. 12 a.m. ‘ appointment FITTON OPTOMETWBPhone 75 CENTENARY DRAMATIC CLUB Will present the play Under the auspices of the JAMES STREET CHURCH CHOIR, to be hold in House, EXETER on — FEB’Y/22n<!FRIDA | SYNOPSIS /' -Exterior of Maple Farm. jto.ACT 1 Septemb|j?. / ACT 2.—Drawing Room of staple Cottage|(?n Chrialmas Day.
