For the first time in many years the
mills of the northwest have been un-
able to get wheat enough grown in the
states to keep the mills running stead
lily, and the government has allowed
them to bring in wheat from Canada
with the understanding that it was to
be ground into flour and every bit Of 1t
shipped to foreign countries. The
farmers of this country agreed to this
for the reason that If the mills lost
their foreign trade this year and there
should be large wheat crop next
year there would be no demand for the
wheat and prices would fall. The for
eign trade of the mills takes care of
the surplus wheat In the United States,
but this year there was no surplus.
The wheat raised In British America
is of the very finest grade.
This setting aside of tariff laws In
emergencies is practicet occasionally,
but not often for the consumer. In
this instance II was the part Of wis
dom.
