A Series or Letters Addroased to the Agricultural Public of Oenadae. being a Careful Study of Dairy hlethode and pa/tempos In Great lirltain and Eu repe, Luring A Peer Months'Visit is 1888. 4°Eseistereci in accordance with the a epyrighs dicW and published in this paper by per- Mi88d072 of the author, At the British Dairy Farmers' confer- ence there was no fact brought out more elearly than that of the etIVIUM CONDITIONS OF fil700assrtIL COMPE- TITION. It will surprise many to learn that it is a veritable problem with the British farmer himself how to get his butter placed in his ewu market 1 In spite of ail the mime degas which he ought to possess over Ilia eouapetitors, some of the letter -always Ivith more or less extent of waterway to traverse -seem, to possess more or less present advantage over him in actual Gompetition. Apparently the old state of thiugs when. dairying was a domestic) in- dustry and the producer was in close and easy touch with the consumer HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED, end the British farmer has not readily adapted himself to the new conditions. 11y friend, Mr. D. Tallerman, of London, probably the best authority on snob !hatters (author of "Agrieultural Distress and Trade Depression," just published), explains it thus:. "Notwithstanding all the changes that have taken place in the eocial institutious of the nation, and the eoncentraeion of large messes of the pope.. itiou in distinot localities during the century, farmers stilt adopt and carry out the usages and customs of their prede- cessors, as practiced from time imine- Morial." Mr. Tallerman thought it a 'CURIOUS TRAIT IN THE CHARACTER OF AGRI- CULTURISTS," erthe leading commercial country of the world that they do not realize that a prac- tical knowledge of the solemn of the mat- ter is essential to profitable dietributioir as well as topracticalprod'uction. This slow- liess of agriculturalists to adapt them- selves to new conditions is not a character - Mitt of the English' agriculturalists alone. We, too, in Canada, have much, to• learn and to do, to keep pace with' the enterprise aud the progress which.is a characteristic of some of our competitors. We may eruly say ourselves as one of the English speakers said of themselves, that in some particulars, "continental nations surpass as." While the British dairy farmer has Seen asleep, some of his neighbors have seized the opportunity, aud have evolved a System of marketing suited to the needs of the case, by whish he has made immense profits out of the great cousuming British public. Iu France, as I shall show in later writing a principal characteristic of their flourishing butter tradees • A.TrtaDE SYSTEM. suited to the -conditions, of the market. Denmark is fully alive to this phase of She industry. We shall profit by this fact. tf it be difficult for the butter -maker within a balfedity's journey of London to get into his own market, lager much more difficult to supply that market, for us who have ten day's water travel to accomplish, 11 the Englishman who is on the spa is distanced by the foreigner, who has a bet- er ystern; how may we expect to let a foot -hold, in the face of active and intelligent competition, by ambliug, along serenely, in a free and easy way, trusting eza °haute rather than to intelligent, well - directed effort? The not very creditable answer to this queation is an expiring ,Oanadian butter trade. The lesson to be learned is the necessity to rouse ourselves, and by our energies to put new life into ;tat which is too valuable- to lose without a. struggle to save it. meneeerse 1 MARGARINE.
