BONZER ORGANIZES FOR NEW DEAL AT STATE ENTERPRISE Will Distribute Mill Products by Truck; Put Salesmen on Commission Grand Forks, N. D., June 20—(7)— ‘There's a New Deal under way at the atate mill and elevator here. Sweeping changes in operating and marketing policies of the mill now gre being put in effect in an effort to pts the mill on a paying basis, ac- cording to A. F. Bonzer, Jr., man- ager. ‘With the approval of the North Dakota state industrial commission, Bonzer has completely revamped the flour distribution system, AS a re- sult some 2,200 retail merchants in the state now handle the mill pro- ducts where a few months ago the number was less than 400. System Is Unique ‘The system, so far as can be deter- mined, is unique in the merchandis- ing field. The state has been divided into 19 districts comprising from one to five counties each. An authorized representative of the mill serves each district, calling on the merchants in the territory and supplying them with mill products direct from the truck in which he makes his rounds. The representatives have set up dis- trict warehouses, which are supplied from the mill. The distributors oper- ate on @ commission basis and each district is assigned a sales quota based on population and economic condi- tions. This system eliminates travel- ing salesmen, Bonzer said, and saves thousands of dollars annually. The distributors are required to call on stores in their territory once every 10 days at least, enabling merchants to carry smaller stocks of fresh flour. Other Changes Planned ‘The “store door” delivery system is only one of many changes being un- dertaken at the mill. For a number of years the durum unit of the mill has been idle most of the time. This is now being converted into a spring wheat unit, When completed about the first of August, the capacity of the mill will be increased 1,000 bar- Tels a day. Plans for a storage warehouse of 25,000 tons capacity, estimated to cost approximately $30,000 were approved earlier in the week by the commission as another step in the program, This ‘warehouse will be used as a storing place for mill products, as a mixing plant for stock foods and as a break- fast food plant. The program for introduction of stock food is being mapped out and if feasible will begin production of turkey mash, calf feeds, chick start- ers, etc. Definite steps have been taken toward expanding the mills custom grinding service to farmers. | Winners in State Oratorical Contest | HUGO PRESSNALL Hugo Pressnall of Washburn and first and second places, respectively, in the state oratorical contest held before the grand lodge, A.
