Wheat 'Marketing Scheme Endorsed A proposal by the Kent County Federation of Agriculture that a marketing scheme be set up in Ontario to handle the marketing of fall wheat crop was recently endorsed by the .Exeoutive Com- mittee of the Ontario Agricultur- al'Council, which is composed of members of County Councils. Arthur Wilson, Chatham, and AUBURN Baptist Ladies' Aid The monthly meeting of Au- burn Baptist Ladies''' Aid' was held at the home of Mrs. Glen Raithby, with., the president, Mrs. C. A. Howson, in charge, and Mrs. R. J. Phillips presiding at the piano. The topic "The light of the world," was ably given by Mrs. Wilfred Vesterfelt end concluded with a duett by Mrs. Vesterfelt and Mrs. Howson, "The Light of the World is Jesus."

Forsyth. A dainty lunch was served and a social time enjoyed. Deputy Reeve Edgar Martin, Pain - court, Kent County, pointed out that Ontario fall wheat does not now come under the jurisdiction of the Canadian Wheat Board, and is therefore on a free oompeti- tive market, without the provis- ion 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 the 1947 crop year. Ontario farmers, they stated, felt that a continuance of central- ization 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 smell in comparison with world output, particularly the United States, where this year's crop is expected to reach 900,000,000 bushels. Most of the Ontario crop (26,000,000 bushels in 1948) is con.. sumed in the domestic market, while the price level which farm- ers receive is closely tied in with the world level. It was feared the world price level might fluctuate widely in future years, and Ont- exio_ farmers are of the opinion that a central marketing agency, under . their own control, would achieve both a higher price, and greater stability, than would oth- erwise be the case.
