rates, amounting to 20 per cent., and also 

 in- icing charges, etc., the grape growers did 

 not receive as much as they had expected. 

 The wine manufacturers, he said, had real- 

 ized last season the great benefit of friendly 

 relations with the grape growers. 



Sales-Manager Montgomery presented 

 the financial statement, which was con- 

 sidered by the shareholders to be very sat- 

 isfactory. Growers had received $85 a 

 ton for bulk grapes and 40c a basket for 

 those sold in baskets, the highest price 

 ever paid for an average grape crop, and 

 this was largely due to the efforts of the 

 company. The wine manufacturers, how- 

 ever, did not buy nearly their usual amount, 

 and the Welch Grape Juice Co. did not 

 open their factory at all. In 1920 the pre- 

 mium on exchange on grapes sold in the 

 United States was 14 to 15 per cent., which 

 offset the American duty of $17 a ton. In 

 1921, however, the premium averaged a 

 little over 8 per cent., making a difference 

 of $8 a ton. Between Sept. 15 and 20 last, 

 the company had lost from $100 to $200 on 

 every car sold, but this was more than 

 made up at the end of the season. Late 

 in September, the company placed $50,000 

 worth of grapes in cold storage at Hamil- 

 ton, and on these when sold in the United 

 States a profit of over $20,000 was made. 

 The company begins the 1922 season in 

 good financial standing, and is to-day one 

 of the strongest co-operative companies In 

 Canada. 



Replying to questions regarding trade in 

 the Canadian west, Mr. Montgomery said 

 that 40c a basket at the point of shipment 

 here was a little too high, as the spread of 

 prices between here and the west was large, 

 freight charges to Winnipeg being 16c a 

 basket, and to Calgary 20c, making cost of 

 grapes in west 806 to $1 a basket. Fluc- 

 tuations in price were very unsettling, and
