In this case we realize that it is, very largely the small operator who fails to make ends meet. I was doing a little work on statistics on profits in the handling or processing business. Every so often we see reports that might lead us to believe that these industries are even tougher than farming. I worked from the 1962 DBS report and on the sur- face many businesses. would seem to be highly risky but the statistics tell only part of the story. In the livestock processing business — statistics show that 177 companies had a profit; 74 companies had a loss. In other words, almost 42 percent of the livestock processing companies were losing money. Does this prove what the packers have been telling the farmers so emphatically — that there is no money in the pro- cessing industry — that it is a risky business? On the surface, from the DES' figures, it would seem to be true. However when we take these DES figures and do a little work with them the picture is quite different. The 177 processors that had a profit processed 97 percent of the livestock. There was a loss on only three percent of product, Further, the average sales per year for those . with a loss averaged only $400,000 while the average of those marketing a profit averaged $6.7 million. Also the average profit was 1.1 percent of sales, Again this profit of 1,1 per- cent seems quite Small but when we realize that the turn- over is from 14 to 20 -tithes a year the interest per year on this working capital becomes 14 percent to 20 percent, Rath- er a handsome profit picture, Milk producers are having very siirdlat difficulties as those of the livestock producers and we 'hear very similar tales Of woe from the processors. However, 412 milk processing companies had a 3.3 percent profit on sales and handled 90 (Photo By S. .0 Hadden) Wed At Porter's Hill On Saturday, November 9, red sweetheart roses. Mrs. Jack Cole, Clinton, was her sister's matron of honour, attired in a blue dress with rounded neckline and draped skirt, with matching head piece and veil. She carried a col- onial bouquet of pink carna- tions, Mrs. James Harrison, Gode- rich, another sister of the bride, and Miss Marilyn James, Gode- rich, acted as bridesmaids and were attired similar to the mat- ron of honour. All carried pink carnations. Bruce Harris Goderich Township, was groomsman, and the guests were ushered . by Jack Cole, Clinton, and. James Harrison, Goderich. For a wedding trip to Eas- tern and Northern Ontario, the bride donned a red double-knit suit with black accessories and her corsage was white carna- tions.

One hundred and fifty-five compan- ies had a 1.1 loss on 10 per- cent of the product as calcu- lated on sales. Many milk pro- ducts do not move as quickly as meats so that the yearly profit is a little under that of the meat processor, but it is still quite attractive, If we turn to the feed mills we find 185 doing 95 percent of the busniess at an average profit of 3.5 percent while 61 mills doing 5 percent of the business had a loss of 1.6 per- cent. From all these figures I'm sure you will see that DBS doesn't give all the informat- ion. It is also quite apparent that it is generally the small operators that are not able to make ends meet.
