Tho "baily, Times" states that the Otago Egg Circle, representing a large number of producers in Otago and South - Canterbury, has written to : the Minister of Agriculture, asking him to confer with, the Minister of Customs with a_view. to removing the present duty of 108. per bushel on wheat arriving from the Common-wealth: The circle, it is stated, is paying sis shilliuge per bushel for fowl wheat, which is being used by millers in the absenceof better quality. In view of the largo supplies in Australia, were tho duty removed'it ■could- be landed hero' at os. Bd. per bushel. There is a possibility of a further rise in tho- near future, and perhaps a. shortage at the coming harvest, as an outcome of smaller aroae-sown. Tho letter stated that if somothing were not done a repetition of what ■ happened in 1915 would occur—namely, a number of producers wcro compelled to relinquish business and others had to reduce their livo stocks The Government has been, and is, spending a fair amount of inonoy by way of instruction, etc.; to no purposo, if poultry farmers aro to bo driven out of business.
