"PEGGING" WHEAT PRICES.
. OTTAWA, 18th April.. The pegging of the export wheat price at 70 ' cents and wheat for domestic , use at 1 dollar 50 cents by the Dominion Government is urged by Mr.'T. F. Donnelly, ■ Liberal member of. the House of Commons. ■ This would mean a profit of 80 cents a bushel on the 50,000,000 bushels used in Canada,1 he contends. The farmer would receive 73 cents, and he would have the scheme handled by-a board like the Wheat Marketing Board during the war.
