Its Facilities Open A Fresh Market to the Increasing Roi)» ulation of Western Ontario Over the years, growers have continually paid ljp service to the time-tested value of dry and cold storage and proper handling of fresh .market crops. ,As in dividuals, however, they were often unable to shoulder1 the cost of constructing storage building, or take upon themselves , the heavy job of storing, packaging and selling. As far as this dis trict is -concerned need is now being Three years ago ens, president of Storage Company, together* with his associates, realized that this area could quickly become an other fresh marketing point to adequately serve the growing consumer needs of Western On tario. They foresaw -and measur ed this area’s undeveloped pos sibilities which comprised: first, the rich soil of the district in dicated that it was suitable for that pressing filled. Mr. S. Rub- Huron % Cold producing crops of .a grade ac ceptable to consumer demands; second,'the demonstrated ability of local growers to produce, such crops. This .cold.* and dry warehouse is, therefore, a central service for this community; offering its facilities at moderate cost to local growers. Its advantages are as follows:-— 1. The likely increase in land values through opening up mar kets for a wider variety of crops, Up to the present, Huron 'Cold Storage has confined its croi> purchases solely to turnips. To day, with its facilities expanded, the company intends to .issue contracts in coming weeks lor varied crops such as beets, par snips, carrots, onions etc. 2. Prior to .completion of this w a r e h o u s e the. local grower could only depend on inadequate home storage. He can now grow extra crops ,with assurance, since the .machinery of storing, hand ling, grading and marketing, is now at his disposal. Turnips Are A Cash Crop For the past ,t w e n t y years growers in this district have been growing a cash crop—tur nips—which they have sold to various shippers who .washed, waxed and bagged same for ship ment mainly to U.S. markets. This croi) has been a progress ively profitable one netting cash returns to growers, through the co-operation of turnip plants of the area, amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly. Huron Cold .Storage Company Limited intends to further in crease these profit possibilities to growers by initiating a further boost in turnip production and thus increasing sales to wider markets, all fox' the benefit of local growers. As their plant stands today it is equipped to process ai>proximately 300,0i00 bushels of .turnips each year. Through the medium of a re cent survey, Huron C-old -Storage officials have built up a good list of growers .who are interest ed in co-operatively supporting their plan and, because of this, the company states that contracts will soon be available to growers which will assure them storage facilities and ready sale of cash crop. Huron Cold .Storage, .we assured, can offer growers benefits of a longer selling ison. The early crop can be ship ped in August with far better success than in the past. Field this are the sea- that .the product will maintain its freshness" to the point of ul timate consumer sale. More important ” still, the company will be able to store .up to the month of June of the following crop year while still retaining them in good marketing condition, all because of .these improved facili ties. It is interesting to note that production of turnips in Ontario in 1949, according «to .figures supplied by the Ontario Depart ment of Agriculture----Seasonal Fruit and Vegetable Report, dat ed March, 19 49—amounted to 44,326 tons (1,773,040 bushels) carrying a cash-value of $1,2'85,- 5 00.'0‘0 to the grower. Fresh Market Crop Possibilities Huron Cold Storage Company Limited recently mailed to grow ers in their district a “Survey of Storing and 'Marketing Needs’’. This survey was designed to ob tain information from growers themselves as to the particulai' crop or crops they could plant and the acreage which -could be [ alloted to each. The response to this survey we are told was in deed gratifying, indicating a high degree of interest in the new possibilities which are ready to be opened up. As a result, the ■company will soon be able to offer contracts covering a variety'" of crops. Some idea of -the total yield . and money value of fresh market temperature of turnips is about | crops grown within the Province 60 degrees which can be quickly I of Ontario can be gained by reduced to 35 degrees due to the studying the following table, company’s recently installed} was extracted from an official “FREON’*© cooling system.
