Larson Man a g e r of Public markets Ltd., which operates the 200-acre livestock Complex said 1372 receipts for All classes of livestock came to a Good increase from the of the year before. He attributed the bulk of the increase to Billings on livestock moving from to East. M r. Larson gave this breakdown of. The total handled at the stockyards cattle calves sheep and lambs horses the stockyard does not handle hogs which Are marketed through the Tele Type system of the hog producers marketing Board an Agency of the provincial department o f agriculture. The Board had receipts on hogs last year and with new sales to Japan this figure will at least Dou ble in 1973. Or. Larson said the Union stockyards continues to have a beneficial eco nomic effect on St. Boniface and Manitoba. The Yards and the pro c e a i n g Industry which Fircz tip around it provide the largest source of employment in St. Boniface with an estimated an Nual payroll of million. The stockyard is physically the largest in Canada. There Are others in the country that handle a greater volume of livestock. The Complex of corrals alleyways roads feed storage areas and packing houses was formed in 1913. By act of the Manitoba government it had been incorporated in 1911 As the Public markets Ltd. It was financed by the Canadian National railway and up rail who still own the operation. Facilities of the Yards have been modernized and upgraded Over the years particularly with the change to auction ring sales system that speeds the Sale of Over a million animals a year. Larson said the Yards arc important to the processor and livestock feeder As Well As the far Flung National and Export markets. The Federal department of agriculture contributes health inspection by veterinarians and daily mar Ket reports while the prov Ince looks after truck and Brand inspection. From its own Well the stockyard used 45-million Gallons a year to water and feed the Stock it handles. A Cross Section of businesses with livestock interests arc housed in the office building at the main Gate. These in elude buyers salesmen producers government and company employees. It is located 15 minutes from Portage Avenue and main Street on the South Side of Marion Street. The Market has its own livestock Exchange to super Vise trading and its membership takes in not Only buyers of every kind of Slock but includes 16 licensed and bonded commis Sion firms and dealers in the Day to Day business of the marketing of livestock. Or. Larson said the Basic requirement is to Slaughter cattle locally with an encouraging turnover of Callie to Manitoba feedlots for Fin Ishing. Livestock sold at the St. Boniface stockyards comes by truck and rail from All three Prairie provinces and finds its Market locally in Eastern Canada and under favourable Trade conditions in the United states. The Yard enjoyed a Boom i n the late 1950s when american interests were buying cattle in tremendous volume. There has been no indication As yet that Bri Tain s entry into the euro Pean common Market will have an effect on the Cana Dian cattle Market. Orders from Eastern can Ada remained constant for about 10 years before show ing an increase last year. The Yard also has an important function in the Export Market As Well As being the largest supplier of feeder cattle in the Domin Ion. The principal demand from thu . Has been from Iowa Minnesota and Nebraska although some orders have been recorded from Illinois and Indiana for Canadian cattle. Or. Larson an agriculture graduate from univer sity of Alberta was born near Viking in thai prov Ince. He became manager of the stockyards in feb. 1971 after serving with the agricultural commodities Section of regional freight sales with the Canh. Super lubricant coming on Market by Egon Frecie a super lubricant devel oped by the germans Dur ing the second world War after the Battle of Stalin Grad is coming on the mar Ket in Canada for use in automobile engines that encounter the same problems As the German tanks extremely cold climate combined with High internal in g i n e temperatures under Load. The product being distributed in Canada by Olson distributors Ltd. In Winnipeg is made from a secret formula which is said to use some animal manure As raw material. Unlike Ordinary oils it can be poured from a can at 50 degrees below Zero and still provides Good lubrication at bearing Contact Call 942-3525 Reserve a Tilden car Fly in. Drive out a Beautiful Chevrolet Impala or other Fine car waiting for you at almost any Airport town or City in or in the . And worldwide through our National car rental. Tilden Winf to show you Whit a Canadian company can do. Hurt Oliu 14m smelly Mont Tel. Temperatures As High As 400 degrees. And Best of All tic syn i h e t i e Oil does t break Down. Therefore., Oil changes Don t have to be done As frequently and de posits arc removed by the engine Oil filter. However there is one drawback the Price. At present the Oil Sells for s3 a quart considerably More than Petroleum based oils even the More expensive ones. Don Olson of Olson distributors Points out however thai since the Oil does t need to be changed More than once a year the car owner should save Money in the Long run and have a better running engine in the bargain. When the car owner puts in the new lubricant he should also put in a new Oil filler and change the filler again Afler 10 Days of operation because the lubricant will clean the engine out to the Point where the filter will be clogged in a Short time. After thai he filter should be changed Accord ing to the manufacturer s maintenance schedule but the lubricant needs to be changed Only once a or. Olson said a better Type of filler should be used because it will absorb lie additional wastes cleaned out by the lubricant. Carbon deposits for example Are dissolved and then removed from the lubricant by the filter. He suggested a two stage or waste Type filter rather than the pleated paper Type. The lubricant was devel oped after the second world War for the . Military from the German formulas by it. Grace and co., and is now being Man fac t u r e d by Grace s Halco chemicals division. Jar. Olson said the new synth clip lubricant makes cold weather stars much easier because it does t thicken like Ordinary oils in cold. At the same time it does t get As Oiin As Ordi oils when it becomes hot. Film strength is pounds per Square Inch compared to 250 pounds per Square Inch for Ordinary oils. Officially it has an api rating of 10-40 viscosity and is approved for be and cd service. Audrey y. Morris comments on Manitoba labor Force employment in government departments and agencies accounts for sonic 15 per cent of the. Total Hibner Force of the country. Federal provincial and municipal govern ments and Crown corporations provide approximately 1v4 million jobs and even that is not counting hospitals railroads transit commissions and the like. Inevitably the standards and procedures followed by the Public personnel administrators have a profound effect on the functioning of the labor Market As a whole especially in regard to recruitment working conditions wages and salaries. And directly affecting every one of us is the state of morale efficiency and labor management relations within the Public service. Fortunately the Quality of the practice of the personnel profession is very High in Tho Public service indeed i would assess Public personnel administration to be far ahead of the private sector in technology and professional status. Nevertheless there have been some acutely difficult problems developing an increase in strikes in the civil service a questioning of the Standard Federal salary Scales uniform across Canada regardless of local rates a criticism that the Merit system in recruitment has a built in Bias against certain groups especially francophone and females. At the heart of these specific difficulties is the larger matter of the responsiveness of the civil service to the changing needs and aspirations of the Public it serves. Effecting change through the monolithic civil service has always been a problem for elected politicians now the problem has extended to be a matter of concern for All citizens. As the Public service grows Ever larger we begin to wonder who is serving whom. In essence this will be the theme of uie discussions the Public personnel administrators As they meet at the annual conference of the International personnel manage ment association Canadian Here in Winnipeg play 23 through 25. Usually preoccupied with abstruse topics of personnel technology the personnel mandarins of Ottawa s Treasury Board and Public service commission As Well As hundreds of mini mandarins from provincial and municipal governments and agencies have invited com ment and or condemnation from political leaders the Media spokesmen of minority groups and the general Public As Well As from line managers within the Public service. They have not spared themselves in inviting the most articulate critics As for example Claude Ryan Edi Tor of be Devoir and Gloria Steinem editor of is. Maga Zine. The Sparks should Fly As they ask themselves How can Public service Loire with and respond to the changing political social and economic goals of the society it serves can the Public personnel profession remain aloof from the multiple aspirations of Canadian citizenry in All its expressions including the political expression How can the personnel administrators better in the problems and objectives of line managers within the Public service As the civil service goes about this exercise in self criticism it strikes me that the problems of bureaucracy Are by no Means confined to the Public service. Our Large corporations could Well follow the example and with a few word changes ask themselves the same questions. The conference is open to anyone with the Price of a ticket. It might a Well worthwhile for anyone in Winnipeg concerned with personnel administration and manpower management especially those in the larger enterprises or Sim ply for bureaucrats and anti bureaucrats of every per suasion. Credit Union assets soar Manitoba s credit unions recorded the greatest Dollar increase in their assets in their history last year rising from million at the end of 1971 to million at the end of 1972, reports co operative development minister Sam k i a the figures Are based on a preliminary sur vey conducted by his department. The 32.8 per cent increase exceeds by More than the total value of All credit Union assets in 1963 and is substantially greater than the previous record Dollar increase of s44.c million 24.g per cent set in 1971. The credit unions also re corded a record Dollar in crease in savings and de posits which Rose from million to a total of million. Or. Yuskiw said this in crease largely reflected the returns on savings which contributed to an increase in members from to 8 As Well As the continuation of a general nationwide trend to savings. This was indicated by the fact that while personal Loans Rose by 9.4 per cent to savings soared by 39.2 per cent to s200.4 million and deposits by 23.2 per cent to also the number of members increased at a higher rate Tolian the number of borrowers 11.8 per cent versus 8.8 per cent. About 07 per cent of credit Union members did not borrow from a credit Union in 1972 despite favor Al Alft rates of interest. Credit unions also recorded a 20.1-per-cent increase in their Gross income which totalled million in 1972.
