Most Successful Year

‘New for Your financial or busi- ness year may ~we start by saying it was one of the most successful we have had for many years. In fact in many" way; the most suc- cessful ofvany since we stavte .

‘The volume of business "wasnot as great as in the years before the high tariff of i981, but it aggregat- ed an event two million dollars which with a small ercentagc of profit realized suffic to leave u

growers. The first pleasing act was to refund to all growers who 193d contributed to the deficit in- curred by the Association through heavy losses against which n: re- serve had been built up. An amount equal to the amount aid in was refunded. We plan ths to repre- sent half the principal and the interest to date on the entire prin» clpal and if this present year shows ufficient profit to pay an oddit- ionai amount equal to one half that already paid.

“We also took into consideration lllg heavy losses incurred ln 1932 by the growers of Bliss ‘Triumph seed. .We felt we had a good mar- ket for this seed in Cuba. Sales were negotiated and the potatoes barrelled and shipped by steamer. The Association did not really: costs and therefore were unabl to y the-growers. The crop year 19 -33 was a bad one and the average price for seed was around thirty cents per bushel. but even at this low price there were grow- ers whose loss ran as high _as fifteen hundred dollars.

The total adjustment thus effect- ed ln payment to the growers and so entered by the auditors in our financial statement totalled $10.- 38780. Needless to say these two actions on the part. of your as- sociation were greatly appreciated bythe recipients.

“The financial statement shows as already stated a turnover of two million dollars of which one and one half million represented the turnover value for potatoes and turnips. fhe balance was for fertilizer and spray material. Ooer- ating expenses totalled nearly $31.- Oill. The surplus account now shows approximately $8,009. In ad- ditlon there is a reserve for all

World conditions are such that .we can see nothing but scanty rations for some time to come. Hundreds of carloads of Canadian potatoes have been pro- cessed from the '45 crop.

It may be necessary to help feed the people of Europe to continue this processing of potatoes for a - other year. Any outlet we can cure in whatever manner our tntoes are used will helato ma n- tain reasonable prices. e do feel that if we can maintain an immun- ity from virus diseases and other potato troubles equal to the stan- dards of the past we will have a very largo market for Certified Seed and for this market the great- est demand continues to be for the Irish Cobbler variety. Other varie- ties are displacing to some extent Green Mountains. Particularly is this true of Kathadlna. This year there will be an increased acres e of this variety which seems meet more favor than Sebagoes al- though this variety is gaining popu- larity from the growers’ viewpoint lf not the consumers’.

There is a decided shortage ,.n Po - ash. In fact this shortage applies also to nitrogen and to a less ex- tent to Acid Phosphate.

If there is a shortage cf any or all chemicals required for a mixture the manufacturer is in- structod as to the strength of the formula he may manufacture. Re- cently fertilizer manufacturers were instructed to discontinue the manu-

Not all orders that have been placed for the higher grades will be filled as ordered. ‘There is nothing we can do about it but take what We can get and to remember that this shortage is felt all over the world, not on y by potato growers but by those who use fertilizer for other crops as well.

“At a later meeting we will show films and discuss the results from the use of various insectldas and fungicides. We shall not take our time on these matters this ster- noon, but we do expect to have some discussion on a rather ser- ious troubla which has been found
