The new grain elevator is owned by Howson Mill of Blyth and consists of 16 concrete concave walls all joined together by cement pillars. (Wendy Somerville Photo) Howson Mill have new addition to elevators By Wendy Somerville In 1977, the Howson and Howson Mill elevator Division in Blyth were first under construction. Today there is a new addition to the elevators and according to Bruce Howson its expected completion date should be during the first week of October. At first the elevator handled just corn, in 1978 they added barley and white beans, by 1983 they had further added soybeans and wheat. The new addition will double capaci- ty adding about 250,000 bushels according to Bruce Howson. He said that they had decided in the spring that an addition would be added to the elevators. They started building during the second week of August. "I went to Melbourne where they had the first and only elevator of this type," he said. "I looked at its structure, studied its benefits nil.: liked what I saw." Mr. Howson said they have been needing new storage for two or three years now, and the new elevator was the best and cheapest solution. The cost of the new elevator is not quite half the cost of the other elevators or conventional silos. Peter Eichenberger. foreman for the men employed with the project said that the structure stands at about 28 feet on the out- side and 50 teet in the centre. He said that a total of about 13 men have been employed throughout the project. Six men for the entire period, four men for the steel work and three men for the concrete work. He also said that there have been a total of about 1,500 man hours put into the building of the addition. The addition has 16 concrete concave walls; all are joined together by cement pillars. The roof is made up of steel trusses, two by 10 per lines, plywood, shingles, and is held up by a large steel centre column: The unloading system is an 18 inch belt conveyor. The loading system is a gravity flow pipe from the main elevator. Mr. Howson said that the aeration system consists of eight three horsepower positive fans that blow into 20 inch sections of plastic duct work. "The building is really unique. We don't have to put just grain in it, we can store equipment, fertilizer, bagged feed and bag- ged flour," he said. "We will also be able to dump large trucks right inside the building." The Howson Mill elevators are located outside of the town of Blyth on Dinsley street, and the new addition can be seen within the village limits. "'ednesday morning.
