Farmers the world over are full of hope at seeding time. Despite large carryover: from previous years. they know that there al- ways will be a demand for grain as long as people have to eat. As one leading grain man said: "What else can the farmers do‘! If they turn the land into summer "allow. it is only delaying the situa- tion one year. There will be double the crop Irom the summer-fallow the next year. . Seeding Necessary “They just can't leave the land alone. Land not seeded costs the farmer more in the long run than seeding it. Seeding is the cheap- est way known to keep iveeds down." So. the farmer is cleaning tip his equipment and keeping an eye on the weather, a l’ll8_]0i‘ factor in all durum than last year. due to the good price -2.78 for No. 1 amber durum compared with $1.33». for No. 1 northern—and durum having no delivery quota. Delivery by the farmer of hard wheat is strictly limited by quotas based on cultivated acreage. How- ever, many farmers will be wary of making the change because the danger of rust, a parasite that at- tacks grain. is greater in durum than in other wheat. Weather is another major factor in the seeding plan. if weather con- ditions delay seeding. farmers may switch to coarse grains. Wheat takes longer to mature. There is no indication that the Canadian wheat board will use its power under the Wheat Board Act to restrict the acreage from which it will be willing to accept wheat from farmers. if such a move is made. farmers still will be faced with two big problems. If they put more land into summer-fallow, they will have to contend with double the crop next year. If they plant coarse grains instead of wheat .they would have to look for new markets. So, authorities say the pattern if ‘ John Alexander Johnston. Water- loo, 0nt.. (above) has been award- ed four scholarships after studies at Presbyterian College. Montreal.

Durum is sought by importers in southern Europe lts flour is used for macaroni and the like.

The previously - an- nounced changes are not expected to change greatly the amount paid out annually. The major changes, in effect since April 1. were: 1. A boost of 65 cents a ton on Alberta coal going to northwestern Ontario for steam plants. expected to increase sales in this market to more than 100.000 tons a year from the. normal 17,000 ions. 2.
