WHEAT POOL SUCCEEDS
AMPLE CONTRACTS SECURED
(Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) OTTAWA, June 19. Mr. McLeod, Director of Publicity for Canadian Co-operative J Wheat Producers, Ltd., informed the press thafr the Saskatchewan wheat pool has already secured enough contracts and renewals to carry on for another five years. This means that over 6,500,000 acres have signed with the pool for five years beginning' with the 1928 crop, ami there is still over a year before the old contracts expire.
The fact that Die Saskatchewan pool has already secured its quota, and that contracts are coming in very rapidly from the other two provinces, -establish beyond any question the functioning of the pool for at least another six years, and probably for all time, as part, if not the whole, of the grain marketing machinery of Western Canada.
