Question: Is it good business to buy inexpensive ventilating tans,
then have higher-than normal costs to operate them?
Answer No .. it's bad Business
Many Agri-Businessmen buy fans and equipment from firms that
promise good ventilating results with a small investment'
Because you are busy, you feel it safe to assume that one ventilating
fan is just as good as another, and when the units are installed, and
electric bills come in, whatever the bill is, is the norm.
Nothing could bo farther from the truth...
We have conclusive evidence to show you, that in time power bills
could be a definite crimp in your profit picture Really hurt you without
you realizing that other equipment can perform better apd at lower cost
Just because other ventilating
equipment manufacturers are big,
doesn't necessarily make their
statements right, and in turn reduce
you power bills Let them show you
the CFM as you use it and the wattage
input

The Solanco F.F.A.
Chapter sponsors one major
money making project each
year. The project is to sell
citrus fruit for the Christmas
Season. In past years, the
chapter has averaged nine
hundred crates being sold
per year with all the
proceeds going to the
chapter unless a member
sold over ten crates. Any
member selling over ten
crates received a dues
reimbursement amounting
to three dollars and fifty
cents.
This year, something
special was wanted to boost
the citrus fruit sales and a
selling cooperative was
developed. It was named the
Solanco Citrus Sales
Cooperative. The coop was
designed and set up by the
Junior Ag students and their
teacher, Mr. Althoff who
were studying cooperative
businesses. After the basic
cooperative was set up, a
board of directors was
selected with one
representative from each
class of Ag students. The
board of directors then
selected a general manager.
Officers on the board of
directors were. President

Joo Overly, Vice president
Tom Jackson, and Secretary
Bobbie Jean Reinhart. The
general manager of the
cooperative was Ken Wiker.
The cooperative was now
ready for any student to buy
stock. Shares of Stock could
be bought for fifty cents and
any student who bought a
share of stock and sold at
least five crates of fruit
received twenty-five cents
for each crate he or she sold.
At the end of the fruit sales
the shares could be refunded
and the fifty cental returned
so that no one could possibly
loose money.
But there was also another
selling promotion. A giant
chart was made in the Ag
classroom showing how
much each class sold and the
results were posted twice
each week during the selling
campaign. The class which
sold the most crates of fruit
per person received thirty
cents for each crate sold
instead of twenty-five. The
Junior class eventually won
the contest with one Junior
making over sixteen dollars.
The cooperative enticed
everyone to sell harder and
twelve hundred crates were
sold, three hundred more
than last year.
Although tiie cooperative
helped the chapter earn
more money it also gave the
fruit sellers a better un
derstanding of how a
cooperative works, and how
it operates. These two fac
tors made the Solanco Citrus
Sales Cooperative a success
for the Solanco F.F.A.
