News Clint Haggert photo Bernie MacLellan, owner of Jamco, stands with Brian Talbot and Bob Wilson, who are now offering Spray Tech, a new division of Jamco that offers agricultural spraying equipment. Jamco adds agricultural spraying division to business By Clint Haggart Clinton News -Record Staff In the early 1970s, John MacLellan began building trailers in his brother-in- law's shop. This year, the resulting company, Jamco, is expanding and adding Spray Tech, a new division that provides agricultural spraying equipment. When Ag -Chem Equipment. Co. Inc., a division of AgCo, closed its operations in Hensall, employee Brian Talbot began working at Jamco, as a parts salesperson, said Bob Wilson. Talbot had previous experience with spraying equipment, said Wilson, inventory manager at Jamco, adding, "That's when we decided to diversify." Spray Tech will be a retail outlet for foams, nozzles, fittings, hose, pumps and other spraying equipment, said Wilson. He added that Jamco does not sell the chemicals for spraying. "This area is One of the leading areas for crops and agriculture, so there is a definite need," Wilson said about adding Spray Tech to Jamco, which is a division of MacLellan Welding. According to Wilson. starting Spray Tech in September allows the company a "little bit of room" to prepare for the spring. He added that there is some business for spray equipment in the fall. The addition of Spray Tech to Jamco is one of the many additions that have been made since John MacLellan started the business in the '70s. MacLellan moved the trailer building business to the property in Brucefield, said Wilson, adding that there was a 2,400 square foot shop to build in. Today, the Jamco property contains 51,000 square feet of buildings and it is still expanding, Wilson said. According to Bernie Maclellan, son of the Jamco founder, there are new offices in the front, a new parts area that is four times the size it used to be and a new lunch/washroom will be open to about 55 employees, not counting the sales staff. An 8,000 square foot building is being added to the manufacturing plant and MacLellan said robotics will be in the addition by mid- December to assist in manufacturing trailers. Although Jamco started building steel trailers, MacLellan said the company began building aluminum trailers around 1980 to offer customers another option. Around 1983, he said, Jamco designed the tongue and groove tubing wall and patented it. "It's the biggest reason were so successful in the market," he added. The tubing, he explained, minimizes the amount of welding required in a trailer. Since welding makes stress points in the trailer, the tubing makes it more durable. So durable, in fact, MacLellan said some customers write to thank the Community Calendar WED., OCT. 31 Happy Hallowe'en 9:30-10:30 a.m. - Preschool Playgroup at Northside United Church 10:30-11:00 a.m. - Toylending Library at Northside United Church - 1:00-3:00 p.m. - Parents' and Tots' Skating at the Arena 5:30-6:30 p.m. - Bantam 1 Hockey practice at the Arena 6:30-7:30 p.m. - Ringette at the Arena 7:30-9:00 p.m. - Minor Broorhball at the Arena 9:00-11:30 p.m. - Ladies' Broomball at the Arena THURS., NOV 1 9:00-10:00 a.m. - Fitness is Fun at the Arena 4:00-6:00 p.m. - Figure Skating at the Arena 6:00-7:30 p.m. - Midget Girls' Hockey Practice 7:00-9:00 p.m. - Learn How to Dance with Mane Little at the Arena 7:30-9:00 p.m. - Minor Broomball 8:00-10:00 p.m. • Mixed Basketball at the Highschool 9:00-12:30 a.m. - Men's Broomball FRI. , NOV 2 10:30-11:30 a.m. - Preschool Story Hour at the Seaforth Library 1:30 p.m. - Seniors 5 Pin Bowling at Starlight Lanes 4:35-5:35 p.m.- Houseleague Hockey Practice at the Arena 5:35-6:35 p.m. - Pee Wee Girls' Practice at the Arena 7:45-11:00 p.m. - Mitchell vs. Centenaires Hockey at the Arena SAT, NOV, 3 6:30-7:30 a.m.- Houseleague Hockey - Bruins vs. Panthers 7:30-8:30 a.m.- Houseleague Hockey - Blues vs. Ducks 8:30-9:30 a.m. - riouseleague Hockey - Leafs vs. Sharks 9:30-10:30 a.m. - Houseleague Hockey - Oilers vs. Kings 10:30-11:30 a.m. - Mites Hockey at the Arena 2:30-10:45 p.m. Minor Hockey at the Arena SUN., NOV. 4 11:00 a.m.-1:30 p.m. - Recreation Hockey League 1:30-2:30 p.m. - Hensall vs. Tyke Hockey at the Arena :':30-4:00 p.m. - Free Public Skating at the Arena - Sponsored by Pizza Train 4:00-8:15 p.m. - Ringette at the Arena 8:15-10:15 p.m. - Goderich vs. Bantam 1 Game at the Arena MON., NOV, 5 5:00-9:00 p.m. - Figure Skating at the Arena 7:15 p.m. - Minor Sports Council Bingo at the Seaforth Arena 9:00-10:30 p.m. - Howick vs. Seaforth Beavers Oldtimers Hockey at the Arena TUES., NOV. 6 9:00-10:00 a.m. - Fitness is Fun at the Arena 10:00-12:00 noon - Parents and Tots Skating at the Arena 4:30-5:30 p.m. - Teachers' Hockey at the Arena 7:00-8:00 p.m. - Dog Obedience at the Community Centres 8.00.9:00 p.m. - Dog Agility Class at the Community Centres 8:30-10:00 p.m. - Centenaires Practice at the Arena WED., NOV. 7 1:00.3:00 p.m. - Parents' and Tots' Skating at the Arena 1:30-4:00 p.m. - Senior Shuffleboard at the Arena 7:00-9:00 p.m. - Learn How to Dance with Mane Little at the Arena 7:30-9:00 p.m. • Minor Broomball at the Arena 9:00-11:30 p.m. - Ladies' Broomball at the Arena If you're organunng a non-profit event of interest to other Seaforth area residents, phone the recreation office 527-0882 or the Expositor at 527-0240, or mail the information to Community Calendar, The Huron Expositor, Box 69, Seaforth, Onteno, NOK 1WO well in advance of the scheduled date.

Several American publications, he continued, have rated Jamco trailers first in quality and strength. MacLellan said that the other major trailer manufacturers build trailers like Jamco did before the tongue and groove tubing was used. He added that there are thousands of welds in trailers made like that. Eight years ago, MacLellan said, Trailcorp, of Seaforth, started marketing Jamco' trailers. "It's a benefit to the customer," he said, adding that it made it possible for the sales staff at Trailcorp and the manufacturers to give the customer what they want. "It's been a big increase to the business," MacLellan said, adding that business has doubled since Jan. 1 and is expected to double again by March. The expansions aren't expected to stop. MacLellan said Jamco is already mapping out future expansions. He added that there is no timeline for these expansions to be built. Both MacLellan and Wilson said adding Spray Tech to Jamco is a good marriage of business. MacLellan explained that the busy season for trailers is the slow season for Spray Tech, and vice -versa. He said staff will be able to help each other better. "What we're looking for is better service for thc customer," MacLellan said about the continued expansions. Flu vaccine offered free again Head aches, dry coughs, muscle aches and pain, chills, sweating, fever are some of the symptoms of a communicable disease, which has killed tcns of millions of people in the last century. This killer, which preys on the weak, the children and the elderly, has caused the death of as many as 500,000 people worldwide since 1980. Without our only defense, a vaccination, influenza would be an unparalleled killer. According to Shirley Chalmers, of the Huron County Health Unit, it is important to get the vaccine each year. Evidence of the vaccine's effectiveness was evident in Huron County last flu season, said Chalmers, as only five cases were reported. Although thc influenza may not affect young healthy people seriously, Chalmers explained it is still important to get the vaccine because the flu can be transmitted to someone who would severely suffer from it. The vaccine for the flu is free in Ontario and can be administered at a doctor's office, community clinics offered by hospitals or at the Huron County Health Unit. For more information about the flu or its vaccine, call the Health Unit at 482- 3416.
