It is reasonable to oxpeat that we will be able hold the trade there against Australian flour, which appears to be our only competitor

The existence of the foregoing conditions do not appear to be very encouraging for Pacific Coast millors, but they are not alarmed, sa they are experiencing sa increasing demand for prodacte in other directions, particularly in home markets and the Pacific Corst.
