visit the new Great Canadian
Bean Plant in Ailsa Craig. At
their September 5 meeting

Mr. & Mrs. Pete Twynsfra

tour through the new plant.

each of the machines to the
members, Pete Twynstra
also showed the members a
ni~w bean puller which pulls,
four -rows at a time and is
then followed up by a bean
combine.
. The beans are then put into
a truck and are brought to
the plant located on the
Twystra farm. The new
combine has many new
features which greatly
reduces cracking, the dry
beans. The group' asked
many questions which
Twynstra carefully an-
swered for the ladies. .'.

members were served ice
cream and punch on the
patio of the Twynstra home.
