BIG Centralised Factories PAY BEST A big centralised factory pays the supplier best because it is cheaper to spread the manufacturing cost over a lot than a little. J Consequently the cost per pound of butter is less, and MORE IS LEFT FOR THE SUPPLIER. In the-year of the Imperial purchase, all factories received the same gross price ; therefore their final payout depended entirely upon their c.osls, and not on market variations. These manufacturing costs depended upon the extent of their output. f Herb are the figures arranged in groups over 20 factories, proving the relation between big outputs and low costs. ' > !

And the economies possible by skilled v chemical control, the average cost of manufacture was so much reduced-that the final payout of the centralised factories of the N.Z. Co-op. Dairy Coy. Ltd. in that year was 32.3 d, an advantage of nearly a penny a pound. THIS IS PROOF POSITIVE OF FACTORY EFFICIENCY This manufacturing advantage year by year is making a definite extra return to suppliers of , big factories as compared with suppliers of little factories.

WATER-SOLUBLE Phosphate is the form of Phosphate which gives the quickest and most reliable results, as has been l conclusively demonstrated by countless experiments made in all parts of the world. Superphosphate IS THE ONE AND ONLY FORM OF WATER-SOLUBLE PHOSPHATE. Manufactured from High-grade Nauru/Ocean Phosphate. Superphosphate is a fertilise) of world-wide importance. EVERY FARMER SHOULD USE IT. Obtainable from all Merchants and Storekeepers or direct from Manufacturers.
