MR. L. N. GOODING. 



I Continued. 



4958. If we could have the balance sheets a little 

 in advance it would be a great convenience, as the 

 members of the Commission would then be able to 

 prepare the questions they may wish to ask you with 

 regard to them? Certainly, I will try to do that. 



4959. If you will be so kind as to send us those 

 balance sheets as soon as you reasonably can, we 

 should be much obliged to you? I will. With 



reference to the question that was asked me with 

 regard to oats, I should like to remark that when I 

 said a farmer would not continue to grow oats and 

 that oats would go out of cultivation unless a farmer 

 were assured of a reasonable return, he would, of 

 course, continue to grow oats for his own horses, but 

 not for sale. 



(The Witness withdrew.)
