asked the Minister of Agriculture of he will introduce legislation to encourage agricultural co-operation?

Mr. N. BUXTON

With a view to encouraging the co-operative movement in agriculture, I have already taken action in the direction of easing the terms governing loans to marketing societies, and in setting on foot a series of investigations into the special problems of business organisation as affecting the selling side of the industry.
