If Mr. Fielding had publicly announced what he intended to do, what followed could scarcely have been called negotiations. The negotiations were carried on, and the Americans receded from their de- mands for total rectprocity: and Canada adhered to her condition of reciprocity in natural products only. Farmers have asked for the removal of the duties on their products. Manufac- turers asked that the duties on their products be not removed. In the Reci- procity Agreement now beforé the peo- ple both demands have been granted. If that Agreement becomes law the Canadian farmer will have another very large market opened for his produce. The market in Great Britain will be Just as near and just as free as ever, and the market of the United States will be an added market Much has been said by the Oppositicn regarding the price of barley. It is true that certain grades of feeding barley in the United States have been lower in price than good malting barley in Cara- a. The quotations which follow were taken by my Department in 1910. They are average prices taken from 38 quota- tions given that year. The figures show the price of barley per bushel. Buffalo--835.7¢. Milwaukee--82.4c. Toronto--57.8c. Our farmers are told by their Conser vative friends to feed the barley to their hogs if they want the higher price. The removal of the duty on natural products will make a big difference in their market price. A couple of years ago the duty on cream was reduced from 20c per gallop to sc. Quebec farmers used to make up their cream into butter and ship it to the Old Country. Now they ship their cream to New York State, and make a greater profit. We have been told that the price of butter in the States is lower than in Can- ada. Let me read from a letter sent to me by D. Derbyshire a big dealer in but- ter and cheese at Brockville. He says-- "The last four year the farmers in St. Lawrence County across the line have received from TEN to THIRTEEN cents more per hundred for their milk than our farmers here, and they do not want reciprocity. Our average price per ton for milk at the factory for the past three years was $19.00. Their average price was $30.00. A thing occured last fall thit never did before. The Swifts and all the other large packing houses, bought all the butter and cheese on every market, and put it in store. In Februaiy, 1911. they began to empty out, and 'they broke prices and lost barrels of money. That 1s the reason why the New York market is lower than ous to-day, but in a month this will be righted up, and they will want our milk 'and cream again as badly as ever, if we had Reciprocity. We have our own markets, and then we want more trade, and be able to select the best; and nothing has come around in this genera- tion, that will build up Canada like this Treaty." Space does not permit of a further report of Mr. Fisher's speech, which in a simple but effective manner answered arguments put forward against Recipro- city. The speech was full of information and was much enjoyed. Sonya, Is the place to spend the 1st of July. Beseball, relay race and other athletic sports, Moving Picture Show at night, EPSOM Mrs. Wm.
