Notice biographique
The Tryon Dairying Station in North Tryon, Prince Edward Island was managed by the federal Department of Agriculture prior to 1894. On 9 May 1894, the Tryon Dairying Company was incorporated by an Act of the General Assembly. At the time of incorporation, capital stock was three thousand dollars divided into shares of ten dollars each. Annual meetings were held on the first Tuesday in March at which shareholders elected the seven-member Board of Directors. The members of the first Board of Directors were Albert D. Callbeck, Henry Smith, Artemas Howatt, Joseph W. Callbeck, James E. Howatt, William Deagan, and Newton Dawson.
The Tryon Dairying Company operated for the few years in the existing Tryon Dairying Station location. Land for a new factory was purchased from John Keough, and M. F. Schurman and Co. of Summerside were contracted to build the new butter factory in 1899. The first manager and butter maker at the new factory was Frank G. Lang. In 1916 Elmer Gamble was hired as his assistant. Also in that year, Lang installed the first pasteurizer in the province and soon after purchased the first moisture test scale to be used as regular equipment in an Island butter factory. In 1918 the Company began bringing in mill feed such as bran, middlings, shorts, and oil cake meal to sell to farmers as supplementary feed for livestock.
Following Lang's sudden death in May 1921, Gamble became the manager and butter maker. In 1936 Frank Kohout became the assistant butter maker. The Tryon Dairying Company closed in 1953 with the formation of Amalgamated Diaries Limited (ADL) in Summerside.
