WHEAT PRICE
Paying For Quality
Agreeing in theory that wheat farmers should be paid on quality, Sir Walter Mulholland said that practically, though he had worked on the problem for 50 years, he could not see a way in which it could be done satisfactorily. He gave his views at yesterday’s meeting of the Wheat Research Committee.
Dr. H. C. Smith had suggested that in view of research advances, the time could be approaching when wheat payments would be made on quality instead of wheat variety as at present.

Cowley) said that he could not see, at the present time, that the job could be done accurately at the rate at which the industry would require it to bo dona.
