Lowering Grades Would Reduce Far
mers' Income, Says Meredith.
MISUNDERSTANDING of Agricul.
ture E. T. Meredith denied the request
Of the northwest grain interests, to
modify the present grain grading reg
ulations.
The basis of his refusal was that
changes proposed would reduce the
price to the farmers, that the present
grades have been in operation only
during the war, under government
price control, and that opportunity
should be given to test the present
grades under normal competitive con-
ditions."
Education of farmers is to be car
ried on so that the producers will learn
the value of producing standards.
