The price quoted on eggs 1s on
grade C, at Toronto. These ,are
from 'Grader to wholesale prices
but I have so far been unable to
relate grade C to the grades that
are familiar to the producer.
It is my opinion that support
prices should be set at a level
high enough to ensure the farmer
a fair amount of security ,but low
enough to prevent the building up
of huge surpluses.
These figures should bea help
in arriving at the best price in
each commodity.
Along with this it seems to me
that through our government and,
failing action there, through our
Canadian Federation of Agricul-
ture a detailed study should be
made where we might sell our
products and also products that
we could !buy from these coun-
tries.
