Don’t believe all the stories you hear about the depression. I THESE ARE THE DAYS ’ OF OPPORTUNITY. jOurs is the opportunity to pull a weight in putting things right again. “ BUT HOW ? ” you will ask.

It is the aggregate of all these small buyers which has enabled us to reach a new record this year of 100,000 tons of butter for export.

Loyalty to your own town is not a matter of sentiment. It is simply a common-sense responsibility.
