About this book

A working account of how prairie wheat moved from the farm to export in the 1910s: country elevators, inspection and grading, consignment, hedging on the Winnipeg exchange, and the export trade. Piper wrote it for people in the business, so it is a clear window into a major grain-futures market rather than a general history of produce.
