enal of which we dispose for our

If I myself were to add to the
long list of labels given to our time
I would; 'suggest that we call it the
age of responsibility. The phrase
is in a sense superficial and, in his-
torical perspective, it may be said
to be exaggerated. All the same, I
feel that the elements of truth re-
flected in the other labels of our
age are sufficiently serious to just-
ifytheconclusion co us on that we are now
at a. juncture where the responsi-
bility of those who are called up-
on to be leaders is wider and inore
far-reaching than ever before.
Seaforth Coop
Review -Year's Activities
tars
'Members of the Seaforth Farm-
ers Co-operative, at their annual
meeting in Egmondville Church on
Thursday evening, approved recom-
mendation of the directors calling
for the provision of new and re-
novated plant capacity. A proposal
that would have resulted in .the re-
moval of the egg grading station
to new quarters adjacent to the
mill property, was defeated. An
expenditure of approximately $35,-
000 is involved in the proposals
that were approved.
The building program was recom-
mended as a result of a survey
conducted' by an appraisal commit-
tee which included Alf Walberg,
manager, U.C.O. feed department;
George Mclvor, millwright, U.C.O.
feed department; N. M. Marshall,
manager, Norwich Co-operative;
George Durnford, manager Harris -
ton Co-operative; Walter Alexan-
der, assistant manager, locals divi-
sion, U.C.O.; acid Ed Schneck, U.
C.O. area supervisor. AU are well
known in farm co-operative circles
in Ontario.
Committee's Report
'rhe appraisal committee's report,
in three parts, was as follows:
Part 1: Improvement of physical
operations: (a) It would be unwise
to attempt to renovate the present
mill facilities, as the cost, which
might exceed 315,000, would be out
of line with the small advantages
obtained. (b) Purchase of the old
adjacent ,flour mill building at pres-
ent price, plus extensive alterations
to meet government standards,
would not be economical or provide
efficent facilities. () A new, com-
pact mill should be erected, direct-
ly west. of the present rolling build-
ing, with a frontage of 30 feet by
the full depth of 40 feet; and a
new one -storey building, 70 feet by
40 feet, should be built directly ad-
jacent to and west of the new mill
to accommodate office, display area
and the produce department. (This
last item is the one not adopted by
the members./ (d) Grain -storage
bins in the present roller building
to be lined and the main floor area
to be used for storage of mill feeds
and feed ingredients. (e) Present
chopping building to be used for
the storage of machinery, fencing,
fertilizer, and live poultry holding.
(f)•.Both the present rolling and
chopping buildings to be repaired
and sided with metal to 'match the
new structures.
Means of Financing
Part 2;" Financing new project:
(a) The total cost of the ,project to
be financed entirely by m,ember
loans to the estimated amount of
$40,000. (b) There was some doubt
in the minds of some of the direc-
tors whether this amount could be
raised in cash, and the U.C.O. re-
presentatives suggested that the

Part 3: Co-ordlinatfon and lira
creased volume by incorporating an
operations at one location: (a)
From actual experience, committee
members have found that volumes
was increased and considerable sav-
ings effected by incorporating alb
operations at one site, and, b'b(
bringing both departments together
under one manager, who would' re.
Pon to the board.
bt was observed that the Seaforilr
Co-operative is the only one in On-
tario operating as a structure by.
dual management.
Following the presentation et
their report, the advisory boardt
procured tentative estimates, 'based
on preliminary sketch plans, to the
amount of 543,000.' The directors'
report +dent on to indicate that the
board also has been assured that
the Co-operators' insurance Associ-
ation is willing to take a mortgage
to 50 per cent of the cost, or a
maximum of $20,000, with the other
50. per cent of the cost having in
be raised byloans, member i
b
fthe
recommendations of the board are
approved.
Members also passed the board's
recom'mendation that dividends ba
paid on a revolving basis, covering
the year,1943-44-45.
The board declared that a% pec~
cent deferred patronage dividends
be paid on 1953 mill business and
one-half cent a dozen on eggs.
Earnings Higher
The report of the directors
called attention to the fact that
the Financial, statement showerii
that both the mill and produce de-
partments had an increase in vol-
ume of !business as well as in earn-
ings' during the past year. Milt
earnings showed an increase of 51,-
504
3.504 over 1952; and produce earn -
Inge were up 51,235 over the sums
period, both indicating 'substantial
and encouraging status in the keen
competitive condition that general
business is experiencing today.
Total turnover of the two der
partments in 1953 was $559,337.
The necessity for action to be
taken to review operating proce-
dures was indicated in the report
given the members. The president's
report, given by Ross McGregor,
shows that the directors have been
struggling with the problem of the
very inefficient physical layout et
the mill operation. It 'hes been ob-
vious; he states, that there has
been between five and 10 per Bent
lost motion deficiency in laber
costs, and the capacity for increas-
ed volume is quite limited. The
general age of the buildings hardry
justifies the large repair expend
tures that will soon he required.-
'
equired.' All of us are aware," be declared.
"that new owners have 'bought the
Turgeon mill and will soon be op-
erating a feed outlet that could pre
sent severe competition, owing to
their more economical. operation?'
"The question of our present
rental expenses of three properties
in an amount exceeding 51,000 a
years," the report continues, "has
given the directors much concern,
and it is felt that more volume'
could be developed, and improved
control and co-ordination by man-
agement could be effected, if all
our operations were in one loca-
tion."
The Woman's Association of the
church served dinner, and Rev. W..
E. Milroy said. grace. R. W. Camp-
bell, vice-president, introduced N.,
W. Marshall, Norwich; Walter Al-
exander, Toronto, in charge of U
C.O. distribution and general field
services; Norman Alexander, audi-
tor, Toronto; and Edwin Sebneck,
area district fieldm'an.
H, Hunt 'Honored
Homer Hunt, who at present ie
the livestock shipper, and who
served as manager for the period
1942-53, was presented' with a two-
piece travelling set by Frank. Rey-
nolds, with rt. S. MoKercher read-
ing an address of appreciation for
Mr. Hunt's services.
Frank Reynolds explained credit
union and made an appeal for new
members. Peter Simpson moved a
vote of thanks to the guest speak
ers, and Alex McGregor thanked
the W.A.
The following were nominated' as

To Build School
Tenders for the building of a new -
school to replace the one destroyed
by fire one week ago, were called
for on, Monday. Inspector J: M
Game, with a Toronto •architect,
were in the village completing ar-
rangements on Friday. The nein
school will be identical with one
being built at Tiverton. It will
consist of two class rooms, teach -
ere' room, boiler room and wasis
rooms. It is expected the new,
school will be ready by the flalll
term. In the meantime pupils will
be tra.n'sported to Fordwleh school
where two rooms were made 'avafl-
able. Bus drivers Alvin Smiths of
Bluevale, and Harry H•astie, of Goss
rie, who drive the children to Wing-
bam High School, will do double
duty. Arrangements have been
made to hold recess at a different
time in order to 'save confusion
with so many extra pupil-s.—Wing
