Farmers Lose $1000 A Day From Sale Of Margarine (Renfrew Advance) Renfrow merchants might do well to consider that when they sell mar- garine their profit, although it may money which stays in the area. The rest goas back to city manufactur- ers, who in turn send a good share whto in turn must send a good share out of Canada to foreign produce/s of the oils. When butter ib sold. after the merchant's chiirgej, which are usually small, the balance is paid to the creamery from where most of it is returned to local farmers. He, in is returned to local farmers. He, in turn, uses it to pay f.ir various goods and sei-vices the town people have to offer. The mi-e money the farmers have to spend tha more Renfrew will benefit, for a large share of the town's business comes from surrounding rural area"? As matters now stand, fariners .n the area served by creameries of Ro^M•e,\ are r .-aiving $1,000.00 le^.s â- .>er day for their cvea-ii than they mis-l.t hrt.ve received had l1-.e:e oeen no margarine.
