W. figurefle Permit me to digress 101' a mat ment and tell you about this cold storage :business, as so much that is foolish and mistaken has been said and written recently, that perhaps 4 is worth while to stop long enough to indicate the truth.

The low tem- perature secured is no longer one controlled at a point somewhat above freezing, but one which can be established at any point and held steadily as the operetor may deter- mine, down to 10 degrees below zero. It has been learned in the storage of butter that certain oils only yield Lto frost when a. temperature ep- proaching zero is reached. and that it held in such temperature the de- terioration in quality which comes through carrying is largely modified. Hence, over the continent there 1:: , __ _, , t O'..~":~'~â€"' -7 7~v-- , mense quantities oi‘highgrade' but- ter at a zero temperature. It has] been found, too, that when eggs are; put away in good condition, and, held at a. uniform temperature, as nearly at freezing point as is safe, they carry better and are more sale iable than under the old conditions of .storage. Poultry has come into the group of products to be frozen, and more lately, although chiefly in the warehouses of packers in the Un- ited States, great volumes of meats, oflai and surplus packinghouse pro- ducts not immediately required are stored.

Hence} we have extraordinary and excmva- gant statements conca-‘ning the mor- ial turpitude of packers and others ’who store products. These extrava- gant statements reflect the illogical and ignorant side of the agitatim which continues and persists. As a sample of such statements I submit an indictment of the l’nited St ates packers in a New Jersey (curt re- cently, and which was printed it: one of the Toronto [.upers, as foilows: “Famous packers in IS! ted as cheats â€"-New Jersey Grand Jury prenutes for bringing beef barons to trial for conspiracy and worse." The indict- ment of the Grin-i Jury follows, which is, "That the defendants did meet and compare. and were unlaw- lully and ieloni ously devising. con- trlving and intending [or their own unjust, excessive, immoral and un- lawful profit and ga'n to injure, de- fraud. prejudice. damage, chest. im- poverish and opprzss the public mm people. by cornerlng sud limiting the necessary and ressoasble supply of meats and poultry (or consumption by the public and people of ssld city and ssld county. so ft to pro- duce u: srtlflclsl scarcity ln the sup- ply of meats sud poultry, and to may. excessively snd extortlon- stsly enhsncs sud lacrosse the coat and price thereof."

They are conser- vative and cautious in the spending of money which does not give an im- mediate return, but which none the lea surely leads to the betterment of their property, and ultimately to an enlarged profit. They are largely without vision or imagination, hence the work which Can be performed for them through departments of agricul- ture, federal or local, is greatly in- fluenced by the manner of presentaq ition, by the spirit displayed, and by {the encouragement given to take a jlarger view of their work. It is this type of hope and courage that has been lost during this agitation, and which with other causes has cripplo ed the development of our agricul- tural products. I sincerely believe that in place of a spirit of antagon- ism having been developed between farmer and middleman, the Very con- W should have been the ease. I!

In the meat industry, whether in butcher's cattle handled by abbatoir companies. or in hogs handled by pork packers, the results have been secured from a small percentage of profit upon a large volume of trade, ‘ land in returns from products which} ‘prior to the establishment of these industries. were complete waste. It has :been unwise in a high degree to misread the lessons to be learned. from the middlemen who showed ca- pacity and secured profit. Farmers should not have been encouraged in fault-finding. but should have been encouraged in following the methods, modified to meet their problems, which have given to the middleman of capacity his success. Their at- tention should have been directed to the necessity of wise expenditure upon capital account. for better equipment and better drainage. They should have been encouraged. and it necessary helped. in the purchase of better seed, and directed to an ev- eryday. patient, persistent. unialter- in: econ. in order that to individ- ual flamers should come a measure at mess. and that the enterprising and capable tanner should secure re- want! as m the' enterprising and CAUSE OF HIGHER PRICES.

DECREASE IN STOCK. i In the United States during the last ten years the population has in- creased by some twelve millions. This population is to be found chiefly in cities and towns, and. therefore. represents that addition to the great nody of consumers. The Department of Agriculture at Washington is re- sponsible for the statement that not- withstanding this great increase in population, and consequent increase in demand. during the ten years hogs in inrmers' hands have declined 25 per cent... there being 47,000,000 0! hogs held by farmers in January. 1910, as compared to 69,000,000 in January. 1910. The population in- creased 15 per cent.. and the num- ber of hogs decreased 25 per cent. Cattle of all kinds have increased lonly 1.200.000 head; sheep tum de- creased 4.300.000 head. By an item m yesterday‘s paper I notice that the receipts of live stock at seven primary points in the United States for the month of J mum-y same month in 1909. The same atatment indicates that in boss the receipts (or January were 32 per cent. less than for the same month in 1908, and 48 per cent. less than for the same month in 1907. ONTARIO STOCK.
