Exeter, Ont.Phone 109 Centralia Busy As Sugar Beets Move The other morning we had occasion to visit Centralia and we found the -Main St. truck loads of sugar reached right down to station. At the station a bunch of busy workers unload­ ing the trucks- and we found work very fascinating. The trucks passed over weigh scales and then onto unloading platform where they were dumped and carried by, a revolving belt up a steep incline and into the waiting freight cars. At the top of the incline two men, took out a twenty-five bag sample of each load. The dirt from the sugar beets entered a hopper and after dumping his load the farmer backed his truck under the. hopper and re­ ceived th© dirt to be taken away. It was considered valuable as it was top soil, well fertilized. The whole operation took about four minutes. In charge of the operations was Bill Essery with a truck with which the freight cars were moved forward a little at a time as the car became filled. We learned that there are 402 contracts, with 1639 acres under contract this year as compared with about 900 acres last year. The sugar content, however, is down a trifle, averaging 16% per cent as compared* with 17% per cent last year. The beets average from 1’0% to 11 tons to the acre. Up to 24 earloads of sugar beets have been handled in a single day. The estimated num­ ber of cars to be shipped out of Centralia this year is 400. A special freight train was re­ quired each day tor bringing in empties and taking away the full cars. At 5:30 p.m. the line of trucks was marked off and this was the quota for the day. On different days several loads remained on the street over night. One break in the monotony of the long Wait in line was the fact that the ladies from the Centralia Church saw in It an opportunity for both rendering a service and making -a little pro­ fit. They served hot dogs, pie and coffee and did a fine job of business. There are eight employees for unloading the beets. Mrs. Harold Lightfoot has charge of the Weighing in of the beets and weighing out the tare and keep­ ing the records. She had all the records at her finger-tips, It takes three men to operate dumping of the beets. They Bruce Isaacs, Ron Schwarts James Cronin. Otto Brown George Godbolt filled the twenty- five pound bags while Bill Dren­ nan was a handy man along with Bill Essery, SHIPKA The regular meeting of W.A. will be held Thursday after­ noon, November 3, at 2 o’clock, at the home of Mrs. Vern Sharpe.
