As picture. -Cour tesy, The Daily Star ~125 Bowmanville, March 27, 1901 Chat with Subseribers ,This is the last num- ber of the Statesman before April 1, the date on which we are suppos- ed to stop accepting Ône dollar for payment for the Statesman for 1901, and charge $1.50, the regular advertising r rice. We intended cal- ing attention to this, matter earlier in the month but have been too busy, so have decided to give our subscribers who have flot paid their subscription yet, another 15 days grace and will accept $1 up to Tueeday, April 16. After that date the rate will positively be $1.50 a yéear. We want every- 4dy to understand this fact and not blame us if they are charged the high price. If any sub- scriber is not in a * stion to pay just now, and will inform us when hé will pay, we will gladly wait on hlm without increasing the peice: But all who can pay should do so at once ag we would, rather accept a dollar now, titan charge $1.50 later on~. As our 'subscribers cani testify, we seldom dun for subscriptions through these columns. We detest dunning for money every week of, the year. We do our p art in publishing the best local paper in these counties and most of our 6ubscribers do their ý4rt by paying their subscriptions promptly. Years Under such conditions it is a decided pleasure to do business. Sometimes we know dollars are scarce, and it is not convenient to square up for the paper and the family do not wish to do without it. We can always meet these cases satisfactorily to all con- cerned, if told of the circumstances. We have neyer crowded an honest man for pay- ment, and neyer intend to. Fortunately, our subscribers are mostly, prompt payers, and we have not much reason to complain. Indeed, we doubt if any country newspaper publisher has a fimer class of patrons than ours, and we feel proud of them, and as long as they do Ago their duty to us as in the' past, we always shahl. And while we hold our patrons in such high esteem, we flatter our- selves that we likewise enjoy the confidence and goodwill of our readers. This fact is very encouraging to us. Our readers may not be aware that the Statesman paper costs us, this year, more than double the price paid for it last year, owing chiefly to the advance in the price of paper, and the combine that effect our business. On our large weekly circula- tions, this becomes a serious consideration on our monthly pay day. We realized this fact very forcibly too, when Can 89,000 Cases of Peas Employing 125 People August 1, 1957 More than 89,000 cases of the popular Aylmer brand peas will be produced by Bow- manville branch Cana- dian Canners Ltd, Plant Manager James Patterson informed the Statesman last week. Excellent growing' weather combined with an increased acreage has yielded an abundant pea crop, Mr. Patterson pointed out. Canadian Canners who in 1956 leased 500 acres of peas for canning have in- creased the acreage to 720 this year. The plant has been opera ting with only one shift working during the season and it is unlikely it will have to operate on a 24 hour basis, Mr. Patterson said. The only staff required to work overtime has been the canning line which worked 13 hours on some occasions. Some 105 men and 20 women are employed at the plant at present. Close to 100 of them are harvest employees whose work will be finished when the plant ceases canning opera- tions. Factory opera- tions are running smoothly and the peas are being produced at the rate of 345 cases an hour by the efficient staff. Cc All GV we had to plank down more than twice as ,much cash on January 3lst, as we had been paying each month end before. In any case it takes a large amount of money to run a big newspaper establish- ment, and as we do a straight cash business ail the year round, and year in and year out, we do not always find it too easy to finance the business. But when our subscribers and patrons pay promptly, it is a great assistance, and not then require to lie awake nights scheming how to meet our paper,, ink and type bills. Now, this is quite a little chat about our business, and we shall now expect to the see the "slow" dollars come rolling in at a lively rate before the mniddle of April. Good day! A pretty wedding took place Wednesday, at the residence of Mr. J.N. Kent, Campbellford, when his second daugh- ter, Miss Gertrude, became the bride of Dr. G.C.
