PGE. imposes Yardage

(Continued from page 1)

derway with the other major U.S.
company in the Pacific Northwest,

The first yardage charge suggested
by the railway officials wes 25 cents
for cattle and 10 cents for calves with
a minium of $5.

This was claimed to be exhorbitant
by the ranchers, who felt that it would
almost force cattlemen to send their j |
shipments’ by rail, when trucking in
their individual cases might be the |
most logical. This comes about be
ause of the fact that the only weigh-
ing scales are in the PGE yards, and
1s the stock has to be driven into the
yards to be weighed, the yardage
charge would apply. For example at
he 100 Mile cattle shipments going out
vy truck have first to be driven into
he railway yards at Exeter; weighed,
and then driven down to the 100 Mile
ranch yards for loading, hecause
here are no facilities for truck load
‘ng from the Exeter yards, The 100
Mile yards are privately owned, and

tarted this summer, have been al-

owed the use of them by Association

President Lord Martin Cecil.

Fieldman Cliff Overton sounded a
warning when he asserted that :f the
yardage charges were set too high, for
overnight shrinkage stops, the result
might be yards and scales set up in
opposition.

On the matter of truck loading at
Exeter, Mr. Stewart said he thought
that facilities could be arranged for
at that point.

The imposition of yardage charges
would demand closer supervision. par-
ticularly at Williams Lake, and it was
suggested that either the Associatioa
or the PGE would keep a permanent
staff man on duty there either the year
round, or during the busiest four
months.

Because of the relatively small yard-
age fees that could be expected how-
ever, it was finally decided to com-
Promise by giving the Cattlemen's
Association keys to the pump house
and scale house to handle small ship-
ments arriving at other than specified
shipping days.

It was also agreed that collection of
the yardage charges, and scale charges
would be made by the Association for

Fears expressed by several ranchers
that the $2.50 minimum would be ex-
cessive on the small man bringing in|
one or two head for sale, were allayed |
by Mr. Stewart, who said. this prob-}
lem would be left to the discretion of
the Association.

For further details of the new yard-
age charge set-up, ranchers are advis-
ed to see Association officials.
