It is fully admit- ted, however, that if the export of cattle should be shut oil from the British merkets, it would prove a very serious blow to the cattle trade in this country, while the prospects for . profitable deed meat export trade to take the place of the live export trade are not by any means Wed as of the brighwt hue. Mr. C. S. Blackwell of the pork packing house of Park, Blackwell ' Co, said that the provincial govern- ment was some time ago placed in full possession of the facts concern- in; an attempt which was made to establish a. dead meat trade. 'Dle parties to that enterprise were pre- pared to and did put a large sum of money to the preject. The result was not a success mm the money lost. Mr. Blackwell regards it as ex- tremeb' doubtful if, in the event that The offal plant will utilize the hair boots, bones, blood, intestines. and such, of the dead animals. Glue is made from the boots, button metal {mm the bones, and so on. It is said that. such a plant adds from $2 to $8 to the value of u bullock, and in some Chicago firms the sales from the offal furnish the margin of profit for the whole business. Armours, they say, dbcovered how to utilize all of a. hog but its squeal. A dead- meat industry was establish- ed in Canada, it could be made proâ€" fitable. at least for a considerable time to come. “The difficulty is," said he, “that we have not the requisite quality of bee! in suflicient quantity to make the industry pay. It is not a matter of facilities for handling the trade. The facilities already exist to a very large extent, but there are not the cattle here that would command the price in the British market to make it pay to export ' in the dead car- Ir. Harris. of the Harris Abattoir Company, said that it the live ex- port trade is cut oil.

Mr. Crawford does not believe such a step is in the beat inta’ests of the trade or of the country.
