The Farmers forum a column for the discussion of All matters of in Terest to the Farmers of Western Canada address letters to Farmers editorial comment concerning the wheat Pool the free press has already pub in its news columns a some Viat lengthy synopsis of the report on the possibility of a wheat Pool made by Stewart and rid Del to the Saskatchewan govern in answer to a series of eight Qaji Esons asked by the government to the possibilities of a Aso As the place of a provincial in assisting in tl6 formation or financing of such a there Are some things in i Complete report not touched upon in the synopsis which Arfe of forty f a 1ttle it might be said that the first portion of the report deals with the present Grain handling system and this Section of the report is of special interest and should be widely circulated by the Saskatchewan government As it is possibly one of he Best expositions of the present Grain handling system that n has been Given and Clear up Many taking up the the report is very emphatic in the state meat that a Pool or Board of control such As the recent Canadian wheat would have takes Over any other form of pooling of cooperative marketing also the report is equally emphatic that any Pool Short of an organization this kind under government or Complete Central control had better be a voluntary Pool and not under a specific these two things were dealt with at considerable length in the but there Are one or two Points might be touched in answer to Trie first question is it possible for any kind of poo com prising less than the whole of the crop to Market the crop to the same advantage from the producers viewpoint As the system of National marketing of the whole crop by Canadian wheat Board the answer Given and in elaborating the reasons for this answer one of the most important Points touched on was that of the Cost of the View taken is that under a control Board Suchias the late wheat in the matter of Cost of both Lake and better rates would inevitably result than it is possible to have under a system involving because the Only material interest that competitors have in the matter of transportation rates is to see that they can make terms As favourable As can their fellow and again Stewart and Reddell think that under the present system the tendency is perhaps to accept charges for services without ques rather than to seek to influence the regulation of these charges in the interests of producers and con they Are of the Opin Ion that Banks would give better terms of credit to a single authoritative body because the element of risk would be virtually in passing it might be remarked that this particular argument did not appear to Appeal with great Force to the Banks in connection with the system of Rural credits having considered the advantages or the government control system or Central control covering the whole the report takes up a number of forms of which misfit possibly be such As the Marine strike in

60 per of the wheat United Grain growers could handle for both Manitoba and if these two experimental pools on the voluntary system Are successful would not the Farmers be More Likely to express a desire for the formation of a con tract Pool working inter would control practically the entire Western crop would not Only eliminate the present sys tem of Grain handling but relieve the Dominion
