Those Infernal Pouches

Editor, Castlegar News: ©
I take this opportunity to

go on record as being opposed
we

nt the

industry was misled into using
them to start‘ with.

These pouches require -

extra equipment to be used.
Milk cartons, indeed the, milk
bottles of years ago, serve as
their own pouring jugs. Not
pouches. They need .small
sharp-pointed knives or pairs of

_ scissors and pitchers of special

design.

Then you need special in-
structions. This in itself fs too
much—the instructions don't
even come on the package. But
what is worse, the instructions
given by the dairy industry on
television don't work!

For example, this morning
al breakfast, my daughter |
asked for a glass of milk.
Rather than say no, I put one of
the infernal: pouches into the
specially-designed: pitcher and
cut the pouch corner off. I. was
careful to avoid slooshing the
milk over the glass. .

- \ But instead, the milk
dribbled. down the front of the

pitcher. There is no way I know -

to avoid this beyond straight
luck. But. now the residual milk
can absorb the other vapors in
the refrigerator and sour.

My wife-was at a check-out
counter a day or so ago and
overheard a man requesting a
refund for two pouches that had

deaked. Afterwards the check-

out. girl commented to another
girl that she hoped they (ie.
you): would. get rid) of the

‘ pouches—she was tired of

paying. refunds ‘for leaky
pouches.

One last thing, my wife
notices a different taste, some-
thing’ like a cheeze flavor. or
maybe a “plastic”. taste. It's
worse al some stores than at
others.

You may wonder why we
continue’ buying the pouches if
we hate them so much. My wife
and I both work, so the times
we have to shop are somewhat
restricted. In consequence,

when we get to the slore, there

often: aren't any. carton. con-_

tainers left.

ie was. exactly zero unit
price change with the intro-
ducion of pouches, presumably
pouches cost the same as
cartons for packaging so the
cost doesn’t enter the argu-
ment.)

When the only alternative

. we see Lo pouches is nothing at

all, we are not yet prepared to

take nothing at all. But we cer-

tainly explore the possibilities.

B.C. “Hydro Finances

Show an Improvement

B.C. Hydro recovered
during the third quarter of the
current fiscal year from a loss
position of $17.1 million re-
porled at the end of the second
quarter, and had net income of
$4.5 million on Dec. 31, 1976. At

the end of the third quarter of.

the previous year, on Dec. 31,
1976, the loss-was $35.9 million.
~ This information was in-
cluded: in an interim «report.
covering the nine-month period
from April 1 to December 31,
1976, issued last week by
Hydro chairman R. W. Bonner.
Mr. Bonner. said improve-
ment in the financial results
arose from control of costs and
staff levels, a substantial in-
crease in sales volume, and rate
increases for certain classes of
customers,

He said gross revenues for
the period increased by $110
million over the same period of
the previous year, reflecting an
improvement in the economy.
Expenses rose by $70 million.

Mr. Bonner. pointed out
that B.C. Hydro has been in-

formed that a subsidy of $32.6.
million’ will be | forthcoming -

from the provincial government
to help cover: losses in the
public. transportation system,

This subsidy and a similar one
received in March 1976 are not
reflected in the net income
figures for the period covered
by the report,

Major portion of the in-
crease in gross revenue, $91

million, came from a 27 per cent -
increase in electric revenues.

This included $15 million from
export of surplus power to the
United States, when an availa-
ble market south of the border
coincided with a period of sur-
plus. water in Hydro's reser-

* voirs following favorable spring |’.

and summer run-offs,
