Canadian Farmer Pool Sells 190,000,000 Bu
Canadian wheat pool farmers have closed another season in which the Central Selling agency disposed of wheat, and the last dividend on the 1925 crop has just been paid.
The wheat growers' pools of Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan report on their season, their payments to members and their elevators.
WINNIPEG - (FP) - Canadian wheat pool farmers have closed another banner season during which the Central Selling agency disposed of 190,000,000 bushels of wheat. The last dividend on the 1925 crop, which has just been paid, totaled $8,500,000 or 2½c per bushel.
Wheat pool members thus received, for the 1925 crop, an initial payment of $1, two additional payments of 20c each per bushel and the final payment, making a total for No. 1 wheat of $1.42½ per bushel. This is considered by the farmers an excellent return as the 1925 crop was a large one.
During the 3 years of their existence the wheat pools have handled: 1923 crop, 34,000,000 bushels (the Alberta pool alone); 1924 crop, 81,500,-000 bushels (Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba), and 190,000,00 bushels of the 1925 crop for the three provinces, or more than double the quantity handled in the previous year. Membership in the pools has increased from 79,700 in July 1924 to 127,200 members in July 1926.
Last year the pools inaugurated the policy of securing elevators by the simple process of deducting 2c per bushel on all grain handled for elevator purposes. This elevator fund has been used to secure 30 local elevators in Manitoba, 33 elevators in Alberta and 575 in Saskatchewan, or a total of 638 for the three pools. These elevators, like the other property of the p, cls, is paid for in cash; hence there are no bonds or mortgages.
In addition to the local elevators, the pools have terminal elevator facilities for handling 20,020,000 bushels of wheat at a time. With the small enlargement of these terminal facilities and a quick turnover the pools will be able to handle their entire product.
