Grand tend ers actually get for their grain and the prices they would need to provide parity in relation to the cost of the things they have to buy. It is estimated that the de• ficiency payment on wheat over these years should be about 25 cents perbushel. Barley is timated to require about 15 cents per bushel, and oats about 10 cents. The whole request would cost the people of Canada about three hundred million dollars. The government's stand is that this deficiency payment method of helping the western economy is unsound. It is believed that such assistance will not help the small farmers who grow little grain, or the farmers who have lost their crops through hail, flood or drought and have little grain to sell.

One dollar per acre of cultivated land was paid up to a maximum of $200.00 to any one farmer. This placed money directly in the hands , of those who needed it most—the small farmer and those with poor crops.
