PRINCE ALBERT. Sask.-John
Blackwell three years ago bought
64O-acre farm in central Saskatche-
wan in the rapidly settling country
along the Canadian National Rail-
ways. He paid $50 an acre for it,
or total Of Sl2.SC0.
Though he advocates mixed
farming as his neighbors do, he
planted 400 acres to wheat last
year and gathered crop of 5000
bushels. Twenty bushels an acre is
a small yield for this region. He
sold his crop at the government
fixed price of S2.i5 a bushel. which
brought him sl7.200 He has just
received the glad news that he will
receive ~ cents a bushel more for

government price after the cost of
handling the crop had been deduct
ed. These certificates made the
farmers sharers in a rising market
and guaranteed them highest value
for their wheat.
This partnership between the
farmers and the government in
Canada is in striking contrast to
the situation in the United States
where the governrnon fixed price
is the limit Of the farmci> oppor-
tunity. American prices advanced
80 to GO cents last year after the
wheat had passed out of the farm
ers' hands. This considerable in
crease in price. however. did not
benefit the farmer who produced
the wheat.
