Lt. Gov. To Speak At Farm Bureau Dedication

Lt. Gov. William G. Milliken and list of top civic, agricultural and business guests will join with the invited public at ceremonies to dedicate the new regional Farm Bureau Supply Center located at 4330 Westervelt Rd., Zilwaukee, beginning at 9:00 a.m. Thursday, March 23, 1967.

The Farm Bureau Supply Center is a new concept in agricultural retailing and wholesale operations designed to offer a complete line of home and garden supplies for both urban and suburban residents of the Tri-County area, said Elton R. Smith, president of the Farm Bureau Services, Inc.

"The new one-stop center is our recognition of the fact that people’s time, whether they’re city or rural dwellers is increasingly more valuable," said Smith. "We feel that we can better serve our function – that of serving all the people of Michigan – if our services and products are available from a central location."

The Farm Bureau Services retail and wholesale outlet for years operated from a downtown location in Saginaw, but shifts in the population, redistribution of traffic because of the new bridge and the need for convenient, central location were given by Smith as reasons for the change.

Already in operation at the site of the new center is the Michigan Elevator Exchange grain and bean terminal. Adjacent to the terminal is the Farm Bureau Feed Mill.

Named to manage the center is Hein Meyering. He will be assisted by Reuben Preutz, a long-time manager of the Washington Avenue branch of FBS. Sales representatives in the will be Al Johnson, while Arnold Sy will serve behind the sales counter and Frank Olshove as warehouse superintendent
