They will discuss the as- sociation's shipping problem with Minister of Railways Hon. C. D. I-lowe when he visits this province shortly. On motion of Mr. Robert Con- nolly the meeting decided to give the management the power of ap- pointing the men in charge of loading and handling other Asso- ciation business at local stations. It was felt that the change would make for greater efficiency and result in a. larger volume of busi- neaa for the organization. , Other officers elected by the meeting were: Vice-President, Horace Wright, MLA, Bedeque; Manager, J.

MANAGER'S REPORT

The following was the report of manager J. W, Boulter. Mr. President and Gentlemen:

We are here at this our annual meeunz to discuss the work of the "353 You which, on account of the lite closing of our books in 1936, covers a. period of only eleven months. It is impossible for us to hove all our accounts on fertilizer paid by the 30th of June but we are satisfied that it was better to close our books in June and bring on our annual meeting before a later date in the summer. A; a matter of fact. any amount out- standing is represented in bills re- ceivable. and already corisiderable has been collected giving us suf. ficiant to pay for our spray ma- terial and our operating expenses.

We have mailed a copy of the financial statement for 1936 to those who constituted our member- ship ln 1934; as the membership at that time. when our liabilities were incurred, are still responsible we feel they should have all the in- formation we can give, and the statement this year must be en- couraging to them as it is to us. An analysis of the financial state- ment will enhance its value rather than reduce it, and I would like. in making this statement, to ex- plain to you a few matters which we can later discuss but to give you the explanations now me. yswve a. good deal of repeltion later.

General Overhead Expenses

The first item I would like to

explain is the general overhead ex- penses found on Page 3 of the re- port. This 3 given as $19,598.91 but, it includes an item of $2,658.10 re- prwenting an adjustment on crop agreements which leaves less than $17,000. as an overhead expense. We therefore operated at less than 3 per cent of our turn over. Another item I would like you to notice is the interest, which is $4,880.63. We are paying a. high rate of interest during the first part of our year which. with some items of interest on old accounts. makes our cost very high. We estimate a. reduc- tion 01' about $2,000.00 interest for the ensuing year. Coupled with this. is the amount deducted from what: would otherwise be a profit on the year's business the amount of $12,256.26 In the deficit account you will notice the item set out "By Oomprorrilse Old Accounts," but this amount is offset by adjust- ments and interests to an amount of almost $3,000. With reference to Contingent Liiaibillty—-$4,06’l.00, this sum represented drafts that were due on shipments to the West Indies. and not received by the bank, but which the banker ad- vised we included in our receipts. They were therefore discounted. These drafts have since been paid in full. It has not been our cus- tom during the year to discount “Y DEPOT-

Llabllltles Reduced 823,865

Takirig all those items under con- sideration, we feel that in reduc- ing our liabilities from $107,129.88 in 1935 to $83,464.$l this year, we have accomplished something worthwhile, and if given two more years business we believe we will show a. clean sheet. Should the same percentage of increase of bus- iness over that of last year con- tinue in the two succeeding years, we shall have a. very nice reserve set up.

Having once accomplished this desired position we think a 1'e-or- ganlzation of the association with necessary changm in the Act of Incorporation should be brought about. Personally, I did not. feel that thus. should be attempted at the present time. We have conducted the business during the past year on a straight commercial basis, At times we have Bdvanced the mice on the products. but We. as well as everyone in business. needed money with which to offfc-t loses of pre- vious years and we felt that as an organization, the farmer, too, was in the same position and we could not ink‘, what might appear as an undue profit on our sales. I shall lewve the financial statement for the present. and when we come to deal with that, we will explain it more ftdly if necessary.

Volume of business Increased I un pleased with the very great

support. and cooperation we re- ceived fmm the membership and

bu-dtlmeswillsoon be but 19"“

of our Association. our volume of business. clmpite the fact um. the D°W»° crop was much smaller than Weflfle. increased very materially, and particularly is true N. 1116 turnips. We ve 3.‘ won- derful outlet for this product, hand- llhl during the past year over 25 per cent of the total amount ship- ped from the Province. We expect to further enlarge our market‘ this V0343 80!! Judging from the acreage WW“ '0 W‘-W138 we shall need I Very much increased market if we are 0° dispose of the stock, and at the some time keep a market that is not overloaded. The overloading 01 a market is a. most difficult mat.- ber to prevent. and it is. We know, most serious in its consequences. UP W "18 Present; time we have not been able to determine any way ‘bi’ which the supply reaching the market can be properly regulated, and the turnip market is more likely to become glutted than is the potato market because for the latter there is a wide: distribution while the sale of turnips is can. find almost entirety to Boston and New York,

Looking back over the past, 1 can candidly state that shippers map. eroted more during the past year in regulating the market than has ever been done heretofore, and with profitcible results.

Greater Output of Seed

The output of seed from the 1935 019356 Over that of the previous crop showed a considerable in- year and it was well for the potato industry of Prince Edward Island that it did The prices of both seed and tablestock were good throughout the year but during May and the firs). part of June ad- vanced beyond that which the market warranted. It became too speculative, based on the idea that there was a neat shortage of pot- atoes in Canada. Facts have proven that at no time was there any shortage, and had it not been for the sharp advance in prices in the United States which permitted us to dispose of a. large quantity of bafolesbook in that country we would have been dbllged to dispose of the spring shipments at a much lower price.

While speaking of the marketing of turnips and seed potatoes I should like to point out the great benefit which resulted to our fann- era through the trade treaty made between Canada. and the United Sta/toe. let us take the matter of turnips. Beginning on January lst, the duty against; turnips was out in two, or, ’ln other words, reduced from 12 1-2 cents for fifty pounds to 6 1-4 cents for fifty pounds. Thls_,,was the total cunt. on.‘ re- duotlon it was possibe to grant without an Act of Congress but the whole duty could be wiped out with- out injuring producers in the Unit- . ed states as turnips are not grown there in any great quantity for win- ter shipment. There was shipped, during this period. at least 700,000 bushels which at 5 1-4 cents would amount to $43,750.00. We believe the famlers in this province bene- fltted almost to the full extent of this saving in duty. However, this saving was not obtained without consider-aible argument as the buy- ers in the United states claimed a reduction in duty was made to benefit the consumer. and it; was

for us to convince them that it was

the producer whose interest was at stake. With regard to certified seed pot-

atow, the full benefit of the duty‘

did not become effective until

THE UERSIDE

COTY CHROICLE

percentof?-hoquote. Whmtollllrief

I would like to refer briefly to the mom»: of marketing. There is always a. question in the mind of the farmer as to when he should market his crop. Whether to sell in the nu. the early winter, or hold until spring. Now. 7011 0311 see how impossible it would be for everyone to adopt any one of these methods. for, outside of orderly marketing throughout the entire 59350;, we cause a. glut on whatever market we are shipping to . NOW this problem in scllins seed is equally puzzling to the farmer who ‘buys. For the past number of years the New Jersey farmer has been buying his seed cheaper in the spring than he paid for in the Fall. and there is no inducement for them to buy early. We felt last Fall that potatoes would sure- ly be much higher in March of this ywr, and when you add the carrying charges to the prices at iwhich potatoes were sold last No- vember it made them more 01900- sive to the buyer than the fresh packed stock he received in March and April. I cannot see why it would not be a good policy to spread your marketing over the entire season providing, of course, you are so located that you can ship before navigation closes or wait , until early Spring. we often heard “ the remark this Spring, “I sold too K soon," but I canot agree that they
