Hensall Co -Op shows profit The liensall Co -Op ended fc,cal 1984 with net savings of $701.912. The more than 300 Co -Op members and escorts who attended the annual ban- quet and dance in the Pineridge Chalet heard that sales of propane. fuel. feed, elevators, fertilizers and other services generated by liensall and Zurich. Seaforth and Brucefield totalled 0.18.620.000. up 64 percent from the .previous year's $23,674.000. Board presider.t John Paul Rau said capital expenditures for the year had also been very high. This included the acquisition of the Sea forth ('o - Op. completion of the pellet mill at Zurich. and the pur- chase of propane trucks. truck and tractor units and flotation fertilizer units. The members approved a 1 75 percent patronage divi- dend on all members' pur- chases and all members' deliveries of cash grains to the Hensall elevator. The 41444 r`r‘ 4 balance of $317,000 will be retained. Directors' remuneration will increase from $40 to $50 per night meetings and half days, and go from $50 to $75 for all -day sessions. Future plans include card - lock gas, diesel and propane facilities in liensall, installa- tion of a propane dispenser, lumber storage in Zurich, a speed-up in grain receiving and reduction of the waiting period for custum fertilizer. according to manager Earl Wagner. Wagner predicted propane sales will double. He also foresees an increase in feed sales. Present production of 300 metric tonnes per week is considerably less than the facility's 400 -tonne capability. Wagner said an over -supply of area elevator facilities is resulting in fierce competi- tion, with high incentives be- ing offered to increase volume. Ile said he ap- preciated members deliver- ing to the Co -Op elevators. Wagner asked for the members continued support, saying he hoped to get member equity up to 40 per- cent from the present 22. He cautioned that as the Co -Op was an unsecured creditor in most transactions, accounts receivable were being monitored more carefully. "There's lots of trouble out there, and not only in farm- ing", Wagner commented. In turn, Wagner said the Hensall Co -Op must offer value, service and quality products at a fair price. Director Mike Connelly sent a telegram read at the meeting containing his resignation and best wishes for the new board. Board chairman John Paul Rau was re-elected to another three-year term. Mac Stewart, Seaforth, who was an ex officio member last year, was elected as a direc- tor. Other new directors elected were Al Hoggarth, Kippen and Brian Triebner, Brucefield.
