Vegetable growers
set research fund
District men serve
on Gay Lea board
Ontario vegetable growers
are starving for more
research into their industry,
so next year they've decided
to feed their own hunger with
about $70,000.
Tim Carroll, secretary
manager of the Ontario
Vegetable Growers'
Marketing Board in London,
said Wednesday the board at
the end of the year will make
its first contribution to a
research trust fund to be
used for government or
processor research projects.
"We have a lot of disease
and pest problems which
cost us money, Right now
we're concerned about such
problems as root rot in peas
and bacterial speck in
tomatoes," he said.
The fund will be ad-
ministered by the govern-
ment's Agricultural
Research Institute of
Ontario. But spending will be
directed by a special grower
committee which will decide
on where or if money from
the fund will be used, said
Carroll.

This is just to say I'm
sorry for pulling your tag
down but I liked you falling

sorry.
"There's nothing says this
money has to be spent every
year. The fund will be there
and if it's decided not to use
it in one year it can be left to
grow," he said.
The source of the fund is an
assessment on farmers of
one-tenth of one per cent on
the value of the crop in any
one year. This year the 'value
of the crop is expected to run
between $68 million and $70
million, so the first con-
tribution to the fund will be
$68,000 to $70,00Q.
Carroll said the grower
committee will corisult
continually with the
government research in-
stitute and have the final say
on where the vegetable
growers' money is spent.
"We've got to make sure
the money we put in isn't to
just make up shortfalls in the
government's research
budget. We want our fund to
draw attention to process
vegetables and as a result
give it a higher priority," he
said.
The grower committee will
also learn from the govern-
ment researchers what
government funds might be
available for vegetable-
related projects, said
Carroll. It is conceivable
some of the farmers' money
could end up in processor
research projects.
"Some processors are
already funding, through the
universities, research into
bacterial - - speck in
tomatoes," he said.
Following last week's
annual convention in Lon-
don, the board of directors
re-elected president Harry
Dougall of Exeter and vice-
president Tony Csinos of
Port Burwell.
At a Directors' meeting
following the annual meeting
of Gay Lea Foods Co-
operative Limited, held in
Guelph, Russell McCut-
cheon, RR 8 Owen Sound,
was elected President. Mr.
McCutcheon owns and
operates a dairy farm ten
miles from Owen Sound and
has been active in co-
operative and farm
organizations for many
years, He has been a
delegate since 1968 and was
first elected a director in
1972.
Robert Turner of Owen
Sound was elected first vice-
president and John Camp-
bell of Bayfield was elected
second vice-president. Re-
elected to the board of
directors was John Stafford
of Wroxeter.
The remaining directors
are: Walter Hamel, Elm-
wood; Howard Wilson, Owen
Sound; David Ireland,
Teeswater; Edwin Miller,
Exeter and Fred Meier,
Brussels.
At the annual meeting,
immediate past President
Walter Hamel, stated that
1979 had not been without its
problems. Reduced milk
volumes curtailed
operations in the milk plants

Jesus was Born
By DARRAGH MEHAGAN
Grade 7
Grand Bend Public
School
Jesus is a baby
who sleeps on Mary's lap
She's bringing joy to
everyone
while Jesus slowly naps.
Above is the star of
Bethlehem
shining on this world
And in the tiny manger there
is Jesus, tightly curled.
In came the three wise men,
their cloths were slightly
torn,
Oh what a day to remember
Jesus was born.
Christmas
Christmas is coming
sooner than you think
So get the cranberries ready
you can wash them in the
sink
The turkeys in the oven, the
eggnogs warming up.
In a couple of minutes we'll
put it in a cup
dramatically and had a very
profound affect on earnings.
Additionally, increased
competition in consumer
products and particularly
yogourt, had not helped. The
proposed re-allocation of
plant supply quota milk from
butter powder operators to
cheddar cheese processors
was discussed at some
length, with Mr. Hamel
stating Gay Lea Foods would
oppose any re-allocation of
plant supply quota away
from butter powder
processors.
Hamel mentioned this was
the co-operative's twenty-
first year of operations
commencing business on
October 1, 1958. Members'
equity over the past years
has grown to over $7,000,000
and total assets are in excess
of $20,000,000.
T.E. Brady, chief
executive officer, announced
that sales had risen to
$81,254,788 an increase of
nearly 6 percent over 1978,
however net earnings
dropped to $315,488. Despite
a difficult year, the financial
position of the co-operative is
still strong and members'
equity had remained about
the same as 1978 levels at 35
percent of total assets. Out of
earnings the Board of
Directors declared a
dividend of 8 percent or $1.20
per common share, retur-
ning about one quarter of a
million dollars in cash to
member shareholders.
