Sees Jump In Beer Sales

MONTREAL (CP) — A 50-per- cent increase in bery sales in Can- ada over the next 12 years was forecast Wednesday night by D. M. Chenoweth, general manager of Molson’s Brewery Limited.

A modest but steady profit growth will be in line with, or sur- pass, the rate of growth in sales, he said.

On the basis of the 33-per-cent growth in population estimated by the Gordon commission, he said that there should be an additional 3,000,000 potential drinkers by 1970, an increase of about 31 per cent.

Turning to the other major fac- tor which controls the industry's production—-the consumer’s pers- onal income—he said the Gordon commission estimated that gross national product will exceed $50,- 000,000,000 in 1970, at which time the average Canadian will have» close to two-thirds again as much net income for his own use as he had in 1955.

Using these key indicators, Mr

Chenoweth estimated an increase in beer sales to 334,000,000 gallons in 1970 from about 222,000,000 gal- Ions in 1957.

Inherent in these figures, he said, is an estimate that on a per capita basis Canadians will con- sume 15.2 gallons in 1970 com-

pared to 14 gallons in 1956.

Mr. Stirniman elaborated on the theme.

SUB TILLAGE

He pointed out that sub tillage was recommended for a moist and pliable soil with a sub soiler being used where‘ hard soil had to be dealt with. The speaker also suggested that the only way a farmer could be con- vinced of the necessity of sub tillage was to get out into his field with a pick and shovel “ and dig a hole”. Mr. S-tirniman maintained that when a far- mer saw the opposition of the soil to his own strength only then could he understand the dif- ficulty of roots and water in getting through. Unless the sub soil was broken up no reser. voirs of moisture could be maintained and plant roots were forced -to'*'grow ‘ laterally and tangle among themselves.
