COOK—-In loving memory of
a dear husband and father,
William .Cook, who departed
this life one year ago, Febru
ary 7, 1965.
“One year has passed since
that sad day,
When the one we loved was
called away.
We saw him growing weary;
but we could not give'
relief.
God saw him very tired too,
and did what he thought
best;
He put His arm around him,
and whispered, 'Come and
rest’.”
-— Lovingly remembered and
■sadly missed by his wife, sons,
.and grandchildren. • 5b

EVERYONE WELCOME
past five years the battle of
FAME has raged in. Ontario,
There have been many skirm
ishes. Mostly the farmers won
but in January 1965 the vested
interests may have inflicted a
mortal wound. The meeting in
Stratford on February 2 may
provide the answer.
But just as trouble has arisen
in Rhqdesia, the Dominican Re
public, and Nigeria, so has con
flict developed in tobacco, poul
try and eggs, and White Bean
marketing.
Which are the real battles?
Which are merely diversionary
actions?
The battle shaping up fox’ the
White Bean Growers on Feb
ruary 8, 9 and 10 is real.
Make no mistake. The big
guns are out. This skirmish the
farmers must not lose!
The White Bean Growers Or
ganization has had a long and
respected history. The efforts
of many men have proved of
real benefit to every White
Beian Grower in Ontario, It
wasn’t easy. The few who led
in the organization tramped the
rural concessions, talking to the
Growers, explaining what could
be done by working together,
the first attempt didn’t succeed
and the next winter the lead
ers walked the roads of their
townships again and then the
White Bean Growers Associa
tion became a reality.
But it wasn’t the success that
was expected. They found that
harvest prices were extremely
low and somehow elevators be
came filled to capacity and
there were times when no one
would buy their crop.
However the farmers noticed
each year that a little later,
after the price had taken a se
vere drop, as if by magic, there
was suddenly plenty of room
in the elevators for the rest of
the. crop.
Again the faithful travelled
the back concessions and side
roads explaining how a co-oper-

Mrs. Turner died suddenly
on Sunday, January 30, at the
home of . her daughter, Mrs,
John Duckworth, Goderich.
Bom in Stanley Township on
June 24, 1883, she was toe
daughter of the late Mr. .and
Mrs. Thomas Sherritt. Since
1920, she had lived at Clinton
where she belonged to Wesley-
Willis United Church. She mar
ried John Thomas Turner on
June 1, 1904. He predeceased

alive1 storage and processing
plant could stabilize the price
and provide a market for beaus
everyday of the year. Thus the
White Bean Growers Company
was born.
This innovation proved a sub
stantial benefit for many years.
The company provided a mar
ket at all .times at toe mini
mum price and was a|ble to
build up a market for the ex
port of beans.
There were problems. The ca
pacity of the company in Lon
don was too small- to handle a
volume large enough to' influ
ence price. The company be
came the recipient of the sur
plus beans from the trade and
very often it was the poor
quality beans that the company
Was forced to handle and Was
losing its effectiveness in bene
fiting the Growers.
Three years ago the company
decided to go .into the market
to buy beans 'and offered above
the floor price add the battle
was on. The company was be
coming a price factoi- and for
the first time in many years
the company showed a profit.
The next year' was even better
but again the company found
need for more capacity.
The company made plans to
. build the needed storage at
Hensail for the 1965 crop, but
ran into difficulties. There was
an investigation into the com
pany on the request of govern
ment. The report was 'fax' from
complimentary.'
Although the Bean Board was
able to cany out its own 'in
vestigation, that successfully
counteracted the government
report, the company was
prevented from building the re
ceiving station last spring.
The result was the loss of
many bushels' of beans for many
growers because existing facil
ities were unable to 'handle the
large crop under the extremely
difficult weather conditions of
1965.
The White Bean Growers
were prevented from building
the 'storage they needed to be
effective.
You won the battle of the
investigations but you didn’t
get permission to build.
You got the permission to
have a vote of the producers
and you must get a % majority.
The forces, the real ones, will
be working among your mem
bers, putting pressure on them
and the directors to defeat the
farmers in the marketing of
their products.
It is vital to the White Bean
Growers that they get into the
marketing of them products in
an effective volume.
Perhaps of lesser importance
to the Bean Growers but of
vital importance, to the non
bean growers of Ontario and of
Canada is the winning of the
battle so that the White Bean
Growers will inspire toe rest of
agriculture to follow their ex
ample in marketing their pro
ducts.
