HC Deb 16 February 1914 vol 58 c607W
Mr. PETO

asked the Secretary for War whether contractors for the supply of forage for Cavalry and Artillery horses stationed at the camps on Salisbury Plain are at liberty to supply foreign-grown oats and are supplying large quantities of oats imported from Germany; and, if so whether he will consider the desirability of modifying this regulation in order to promote arable cultivation in Wiltshire and increase the demand for and remuneration of agricultural labourers?

Mr. H. BAKER

Provided that oats fulfil the required conditions, no stipulation is made as regards the source of supply.
