Mills’Use of Wheat Bonded in Canada Hit — < Head of Nebraska Consolidat ed Raps at Plea of Con vention of State Millers in Omaha. -. •1 Nebraska miller* met In fall con vention yesterday In Logan Inn of Hotel Fontenelle. The 40 millers who attended the session, which began with a luncheon, discussed the pres ent wheat situation as It relates to mills and production. Bemls Broth ers Bag company was host at the luncheon. A. R. Kinney, president of the Ne braska Consolidated Mills company, condemned the system which permits Canadian wheat to be milled In this country under bond. This wheat, he charged, seldom reaches its Intended destination. "Mills which produce flour from bonded Canadian wheat ara permitted by the tariff laws to mix in 30 per cent of American wheat to the north ern product before exporting it. Bond ed wheat is not supposed to be> sold in the United States. “What these mills do,” continued Mr. Kinney, "is to substitute Ameri can 'clears' and^'low grade' for the hard spring wheat. The former is exported and the latter sold in this country under the mills’ labels." Mr. Kinney also advised against a practice of paying too high a price above the world market price of wheat, simply to outbid a competitor, and then selling low, even below cost, for the same reason. R. S. Dickinson, Glade Mills, Grand Island, president of the association, was chairman. C. V. Topping, Kan sas City, secretary of the Southwest ern Millers’ league, stated that the over production period in which the mills found themselves after the war and which continued for some time, is gradually fading away and mills are now settling down into normal output activities. Mr. Topping is representing the league before Interstate Commerce commission to secure better freight rates for the miller. Northern mills shipping to eastern concerns with even a greater distance between points, have 10 cents a barrel ad vantage over the southern group of which Nebraska is a member. H. M. Baines, Kansas City, director of the Southwestern Wheat Improve ment association, gave a comprehen sive technical talk on tho proper care if soil to retain hydrogen necessary in the raising of high protein wheat, (le declared that from $15,000 to $20,000 is spent annually to spread information on how to raise more md better wheat on less ground.
