Weber Ltd.; Leslie Parker, salesman, and S. D. Greive, sales manager, Cd -op 'Eliminates DefiCit. Sales Hit $240,000 Exeter District Cooperative. has elminated the deficit it has carried since its mill burned five years ago. This was revealed Friday night at the annual meeting and ban- quet when officers reported sales of over $240,000 in 1957 with net savings of $10,800. President Edmond Hendrick, Crediton," made the announce- ment "with a great deal of plea- sure" He said the achievement justified the risk taken by sup- porters in. 1952 when the mill was rebuilt. "It was with a good deal .of misgivings that we decided to rebuild the mill and a good many of us that time weren't very en- thusiastic." Not until 1956 did the Co-op be. gin to show a sizeable profit but in the past two years it has Writ- ten off a $24,000 loss. In the two years, sales have increased from $170,000 to a quarter of a mil- lion. Tribute was paid to Manager Kenneth Hern and supervisors of United Co-operatives of Ontario for the local co-op's success. Noting that sales have in- creased $18,000 over the pre- vious year, Manager 'Hem urged directors to strive for a volume of $500,00. He said the board was studying the possibility of ex- tending to customers. District UCO supervisor Bill Harvey, Goderich, outlined the financial statement to nearly 200 farmers and their wives who were present. Members's equity has risen to $43,948, more than , double the amount in 1955. Three new directors were elec- ted to the board — Walter Mc- Bride, Ray Jones and Theron Creery.

HOOPER Protein Dollars The next five to six months will tell the conventional mixed farmer whether he has made a profit on this year's operation. Last spring he planted a crop which will be marketed through livestock next spring. This is the time proven system. The 'mark of a good farmer is a stable full of livestock, converting the roughage and grain to milk, pork, eggs, lamb and beef, To obtain the greatest returns for his labors, the feeder would be wise to take advantage of all the research carried out by pri- vate feed companies and by gov- ernment sponsored stations. Efficient gains are only made by balanced ,rations, Let's assume that a farmer has on hand a mow of average hay, a bin of mixed grain and. a crib of corn and perhaps some turnips. They were all produced on the farm and the farmer being shed of ready cash, due to high taxes and general increase in overhead costs, .does not feel he can af- ford supplements in the form of protein. Yes, his mow, crib and bin have lets of energy but they are short of protein. * * 3 -Star Specials * * * The corn crib 8-10 percent pro- tained 10 percent protein or lets. That mow of average hay con- *tein and the bin of grain about 12 percent. The turnips are mainly an aiSpetizer. This is away below the' niost, efficient level of a stock feed 1 1 and the efficiency of the feed supply could be as low as 50 percent, Any farmer in these eircum`• stances Would be pennywise and pound-foolish to even consider not purchasing a protein supple- ment. What to buy? Well each feed traveller says he has the best, not other will work. Perhaps one of the best buys on the .market for ruminant is soy -bean oil meal and we have included for your information a small Informatien chart for use as compariStin showing protein arid comparative worth ef other seurces — based en Soy Bean Meal at $100 ton.
