DOES SHUR•GAIN TAKE THE
EXTRA TROUBLE TO MAKE
SELECTED-GRANULATED FERTILIZER
Because it's more effective. SHUR-GAIN Fertilizer is granulated
'after the ingredients have been mixed and is not just a blend of
granular materials. As a result each granule contains all three
plant food elements in the right proportions.
Ordinary granular and blended fertilizers simply consist of a
mixture of ingredients, either in powder fOrm or granules.
Although •it's. easier to make fertilizer that way it Cannot be
as effective in use due to the separation of ingredients of
different size and weight.
As every granule contains all the guaranteed plant food
elements, SHUR-GAIN Selected-Granulated Fertilizer remains
completely balanced throughout storing, shipping and spreading ,
—resulting in balanced feeding of plants from every granule;
consistent, more even application of the best possible fertilizer
to give you maximum yields and top returns from your
fertilizer dollar:
As always it pays to get the finest fertilizer for your good
earth—SUUR-GAIN Selected-Granulated.

be a market with Britain and
there now is a good market in
the United Kingdom for "pig-
lets" which 'is a hog weighing
80-100 .lbs, Here in Canada, hog
producers do not consider this
a profitable weight,
Another problem we have is
the number of hogs being im-
ported into Canada from the
United States.
Mr. Warner went on to say
that one of the things causing
the most concern -at present is
'the` amount of dead hogs com-
ing 'in off the trucks (10-15
weekly) which means an ap-
proximate loss of $40,000 per
year.
The processors used to bear
the loss, but now are starting
to kick, -end the Hog Producers
are trying 'to work out a plan
with the producers, truckers
and Processors that all will
share the loss.
'It costs the board a lot of
money to keep things operating,
he noted. • There -.are always
shoots to replace, snow removal
at assembly yards and the hold-
ing of hogs over, if a heavy
run, but they are still hoping
to hold the service charge at
35 cents.
They now , have 11 applica-
tions in for, either new assembly
yards or enlargements or chan-
ges to be made on old assembly
yards.
Afeter Mr. Warner's informa-
tive address, a question period
was held, which, proved very
interesting to all present.
