want the best agricultural in Canada to subscribe to the Parmers Advocate who an interest the exhibits especially the poultry as did their husbands and brothers The practical lectures were again the most attractive part of the show and as before the wisdom of this fea ture was demonstrated beyond all doubt The lecture room was at all times too small to accommodate the crowds who wished to hear too ad dresses and it will evidently be found necessary to again enlarge the seating capacity of this room the highest possibilites of this Show as an educational medium are to be achieved Indeed the good City of was so crowded with visit ors that it would seem as if the lim it had already been reached and that it would be wise to start additional shows in other parts the province to meet the wants of those who can not conveniently reach and to relieve the congested state of af fairs in the Royal City The Mari time Winter Fair at Amherst and the big Spring Show and Sale at Calgary arc doing good work along the educational lines and another similar show will be started at Ottawa in February next ft re quires no prophetic gift to foretell the establishment of great education al shows for the benefit of each and every province in the Dominion in the next two or three years The convention at was a magni ficent assemblage of the leaders in agricultural thought gathered from all sections from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the United States and Great Britain as well If as Andrew of Gait remarked Canada were suddenly deprived of the services of all her agricultural lead ers who were present at the show blow would be struck Finishing Range Cattle in the East On feature Show which at- tracted a good deal of attention was a bunch of i range cattle from the North West exhibited by the Terri torial of Agriculture These cattle were grade fords and Galloways and will be stabled and fed at the Agricultural College and at Major Hoods farm at view to ascer taining whether a successful business can be done by Ontario Farmers in finishing western cattle Only if per cent of the American range cat tle are shipped direct to the market The rest are shipped East and fed grain until are in condition for slaughter and that is one reason why American range cattle bring better prices than ours In shipping our range cattle to England they are so unaccustomed to confinement that they usually reach the Old Country before they begin to eat As they have to be slaughtered with in ten days of their arrival the loss in weight and price is very heavy it is believed by Western men that if range cattle were shipped East and sold at some central point such as Toronto they could be laid down at to per head leaving a good margin for the Ontario farmer Great Beef Packing Centres Needed In speaking of the outbreak of the foot and mouth disease in the United States and of the necessity of pro tecting Canadian herds from con tagious diseases Hon Sydney Fisher drew attention to the advantages of having a dressed beef trade rather than an export trade in live cattle Among other things he said Americans have a dead meat trade They have all the facilities for im mense abattoirs and they can turn the stream from the live cattle to the dead meat trade in a very little time But if there were to occur a case of contagious disease in Canada tomorrow and the markets of the Old Country should be shut against our live Stock trade we have no or ganized dead meat trade no abattoirs here to slaughter our animals no fa cilities for the transportation of that meat if it were prepared for the Old Country market and that would he an almost fatal blow against the live stock trade of this country Such a thing might occur in Canada at any moment it matters not

be estab lished so that if such an incident should occur In this country we should not be put to the enormous payment loss that we would today We have beats me is the Kali of some who seek nomination Nobody would think of trying play a fiddle without taking lessons but these empty headed geniuses think they could step right in and run the carry which our mercantile agencies organization- of the-

rapidly and the more earnestly we can increase that capacity the greater will be the prosperity not only of agriculture but of our whole Dominion Home Advice on our Trade Home good advice from a disinter ested standpoint was given by Mr Arch of Glasgow a talk on Canadian Live Slock Pro ducts Exported Britain and How to that Trade He said that Great Britain must consume the surplus products of other countries Canadian cattle and beef were od but not as good as he best beet the United States The demand in Great Britain was altogether fox baby at the show they had no clashes for old ani mals Many were putting steers on the market at months old Baby beef was lacking in flavor perhaps but the public wanted it and it was more profitable to produce In cheese Canada easily led great credit being due to Professor for his efforts to secure better transporta tion facilities Canadian butter had not as good a reputation the Danish and New Zealand butter surpassed it the Irish was about equal to it and the Siberian was rapidly approaching It A point in Canadian but ler was that many samples of it con- tamed too much moisture The man of packing was also defective for the establishment of the ba con trade the organization of an ab attoir system in Canada and trans portation system to carry the meat forward want to call trie atten tion of the stockmen and capitalists of this province to this problem I am quite sure the dillicultics which have hindered it up to the present time have largely disappeared One of these was the lack of a market for the offal There will soon be a mar ket here that all the different parts the animal can be utilized This being the case I feel the time is now ripe for the establishment of a dead meat trade with the old country and that it must he brought
