Thompson mill A tour of the W.G. Thomp- son and Sons Hensall facilities was one stop in a busy schedule for a group representing large domestic and overseas companies in the market for white beans.

Foods, Bat- chelors Ltd. and the Co -Op Wholesale Society Ltd., all European companies. The group was accom- panied on its rounds by Bean Board manager Charles Broadwell and Board chair- man Alan South. Before travelling from Lon- don by bus, the food company representatives had been brought up to date by board secretary Randy Hall on a consumer attitudes study due to be completed by the end of October, and had heard a crop prospective from Broadwell. The tour through Thomp- sons followed the white beans from the time they were dumped into the pit by the farmer, through rough clean- ing, destoning, polishing, sor- ting and sizing in the gravities, recleaning separa- tion of the darks and rejects by electric eye, then to the bagger and on to the storage room ready for market.

Broadwell said the annual seminars are an effective part of the Board's on-going marketing program. Firm orders for 30,000 bags of beans were signed immediately after this year's crop seminar, and more future sales are expected as a direct result of familiarizing the food companies with all aspects of the product they are buying. Broadwell said dealer reports on Monday from across the province show that 82 percent of Ontario white beans have been harvested. He expects the projected 1984 harvest of 950,000 bags will be completed within two weeks. rR�u, °°P84 Free 411"nJrarrh an'rAKoo Movie Night Films of Centennial Weekend at Hensall Public School Monday, October 15 7:00 p.m. Everyone welcome.
