HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thursday. November 22, 1962 Certificate Plan Talked at Meet (Continued from page 1) dent said. This is largely due to the impending government selling program. Jones said that he was very much in favor of the farm bill and urged support of growers for it. Manager Al Lamb presented statistics from the balance sheet and the profit and loss state ment, pointing out the healthy condition of the organization. He urged farmers to bury treated grain and told how an entire carload or more may be lost if a kernel of poisoned grain is found in it. To date, MCGG has had no such trouble, how ever. "The wheat we are storing is used for food. Keep it clean," he said. Grain now going out is much cleaner than it was a few years ago, he said. He told of a free inspection service that the MCGG offers on grain that is in farm storage. Manager Lamb made an ap peal to farmers to use the MCGG storage rather than to build their own farm storage. "We pay taxes on three mil lion bushels of storage," ho said. "If you build, we are paying duplicate taxes on storage." This year there was one empty MCGG elevator at lone because of too much farm storage in that area. The manager described a new plan that MCUU win piace into effect under the new gov ernment program whereby stor age costs to farmers who have held their crops for more than a year will be substantially de creased under MCGG storage. Under the new program, if the referendum passes, growers would be allowed to build up storage reserves. The manager pointed out that storage rates of the Morrow Grain Growers have not changed since 1946. He too, spoke in favor of the jiew law as being "far less complicated than anything we have ever had," and pointed out that "we have been working for something of this kind since 1926." An important amendment to the by-laws was presented to the members occasioned by a change in the tax laws on cooperatives. In the past the growers of the co-op have been paid 10 in cash and 90 in certificates on earnings for the current crop year. The cooperative was not taxed on the earnings, but the grower paid his tax when he re ceived payment of the certifi cates. Under the by-law change, the BEST BARGAIN Your doctor's prescription is the best value in the long history of medicine from the standpoint of the results to be expected.

The 25 payment will help him do this, it was explain ed. Since the total tax then shall havp hppn Daid at the time the profit is earned, the grower will not need to pay when the bal ance of the earnings are paid as certificates are redeemed. The by-law change was adopt ed by unanimous vote. Manager Lamb, who acted as master of ceremonies for the meeting, recognized R. B. Rice, first secretary of the Grain Growers, who served when it was organized in 1930. He also intro duced other guests.
