With wheat participation now estimated by tie chairman of the Canadian wheat Board at least 40 cents per Bushel Saskatchewan wheat growers stand to receive approximately for last year s crop Over and above the initial pay ment made to them by the Board. At one time there Vas widespread talk among Tho Farmers that when the crop was finally marketed and the certificates cashed in they would not bring More than 10 cents a Bushel Aud to those who held this option out of these will look like found Money. It is extremely said the Hon. Charles a. Dunning n. Grain grower himself and for Many years manager of Tho Saskatchewan co operative elevator company limited today. According to government figures slightly under bushels of wheat were raised in the province last year. Of this amount some bushels were held off Tho mar Ket for seed and other purposes on the farms. The Saleable crop amounted therefore to approximately bushels. The wheat Board took Over the crop from the Farmers and made them an initial payment at the Rato of a Bushel or approximately at the same time it gave them certificates entitling them to pro rata per Bushel participation in final profits made on the re Sale of the crop by the Board. Such certificates at 40 cents per Bushel will add another to the final Price to be paid the Farmers for the wheat crop and will bring it up to an approximate total of 000. That there is Good reason to Ber Lieve that or. Estimate of cents a Bushel is not excessive might be inferred from a remark dropped by or. Dunning. Has Faith in Stewart. I know or. Said or. Dunning and you can take it from no that when Jim Stewart says that the certificates will be Worth at least 40 cents a Busboy they will be Worth not less than 40 cents a the effects of chairman Stewart s announcement May be far reaching according to or. Dunning. That the announcement at this time will bring about any material increase in the acreage to be sown to wheat in this province this year is doubtful al though it May have some effect in this direction. The amount of wheat that the Farmers will put in will probably be dictated More by the nature of the season than by encouragement in the matter of Price that can be derived from the know ledge that the participation certificates Are Worth 40 cents instead of 10 or my cents a Bushel. While it is unlikely that Many Farmers in the province Ever thought that they would go to 40 cents said or. Dun Ning Tho in Best equipped by experience to form a sound opinion on the a object have been figuring them to net Between 20 and 25 cents a Bushel. Noon from the residence of j. A. 542 Kildonan.
