DISPOSAL OF WHEAT.
DISCUSSED BY FARMERS. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Christchurch, Last Night. A remit before the conference of the Farmers' Union urged that the Government be requested to make better provision for receiving and storing wheat next season than was made this year. In the discussion, it was shown that farmers were financially hampered at present, consequent on being unable to dispose of their wheat, and in many cases wheat was stored in fields, at the of considerable damage. The question of an advance on wheat held was also raised, and to this the president {Mr. David Jones) replied that there was an arrangement on the subject, details of which he was not at liberty to make public, but the merchants had told the wheat-growers about it. Ultimately matters were left in the hands of the president to take any action required.
