WHEATMEAL AND GROUND WHEAT
Sir,—ls it possible, as reported in' the newspapers, that this Ministry of oura does not want to reduce the cost of living, as .it is actually prohibiting the importation of wheat meal und ground wheat fro.m Australia, which everyone knows is being produced much cheaper there than here, and can even be sold to consumers, duty paid, at a lower price than the locally-produced article? If tlje stuff is only fit for fowl and oow and pig feed, poultry and dairy farmers, tlia former especially, are surely entitled to consideration of this . paternal Government, as these people have had a rough row to hoe, owing to the Minister in charge having sanctioned the duplication of the price of bran and pollard, to add to the already large .profits of s local millers, and perhaps avoid greater loss on his wheat purchases.—l am. etc., POULTRY FANCIER.
