Cane-farming may be encouraged and promises for several years to 

 come to promote the prosperity of the small grower if a sound basis 

 of mutual confidence can be laid as between farmer and factory. 

 Suspicion and distrust has been a large factor in defeating efforts in 

 this direction. This distrust might be dissipated by a system of 

 check weighing and gauging paid for by the parties interested but 

 guaranteed by official supervision. Probably the Local Government 

 Board is in the best position of any Government Department to be 

 an intermediary between the small grower and the cane factory, and 

 if a scale of fees were arranged in conference with growers and 

 manufacturers the district and village overseers would be available 

 for the checking work required.
