Mr. Arthur Wilson of Catham and Deputy Reeve Edgar Martin of Paincourt, Kent County, point­ ed out that Ontario fall wheat does not now come under the jurisdiction of the Canadian Wheat Board, and is therefore on a free computitative market, without the provision of the floor price similar to the fixed price established on western wheat. During the War years the marketing of fall wheat was supervised by the Canadian Wheat Board but this control was relinquished at the end of j the 1947 crop year. Ontario farmers, they stated, felt that a continuance of cen­ tralization of marketing for this crop would be advantageous. Most of the Canadian production of fall -wheat is grown in this province, but the total output is relatively small in comparison with world output, particularly the United States, where this year’s crop is expected to reach 900.000,000 jbushels. Most of the Ontario crop (20,000,000 bushels in 1948) is consumed in the domestic market, while the price level which farmers receive is closely tied in with the world level. It was feared the world price level might fluctuate Wide­ ly in future years, and Ontario farmers are of the opinion that u central marketing agency, un­ der their own control, would achieve both a higher price, and greater stability, than would otherwise be the case. 49c to $3.50 COOLNESS PICNICS Sportettes PHONE 376 SNELGROVE’S Cleanliness Essotane outs down clean-up time.
