Paper identification is not pos- sible, even of animals bearing extra- ordiaary marks. A chain of identifiqa- tion is always as weak as the weak- est link, The animal's parentage de- pends (first) on the word of some one who saw the sire put to the dam, and (second) on the word of some one who saw leer foal. These things in prac- time depend on the reliability of the people dealt with.

They are of value ouly as showing the results obtained through the uttionfs of one family with another and only of value in sd far as these have been carefully carried out and reoorded by People whose reputation is beyond question. The charaater of the breeder counts for everything. The failures as well as the successes of the breeder of high character are equallY valuable to other breeders. The en- tries recorded by breeders about whose charaeiter or diligence there is the slightest suspicion do. not add in the slightest degree to the value of their stook.

He is asking that the stud books of the United States be recognized in Can- ada. Will the United States or do the United States recognize Canadian stud books to the same amount and degree. Hon. Mr. CASGRA1N— I think I am coming to that in a few minutes. The American can import duty free an animal registered in such reliable foreign record as of right. The Can- adianuan only do so after he has got it recorded in the Canadian register. This is the second salient 'difference between the method adopted in the two countries. Pedigreed stock, as we all know, is imported for two 'Very different purposes and by two classes of persons interested in different ways. Those ,who care. to inquire into the matter can judge for themselves which purpose the dute- free entry provisiofl was most intended to help and what interest is in fact most advantaged by the system in vogue. Better beef cattle, finer dairy cows and More en- during horses are wanted, not in the show rings, but on the farms. The show ring is the place where what the farmer wants is advertised. ' No one can conceive of the farmer knowingly supporting a 'system by which direct import by him of stock he needs to cross with and improve his halfbred herd is made hard to him and by which what stock is available through importation by others is likely to be either higher in price or poorer in quality than it need be if fall effect were given to the law. No one would grudge free import to those who breed pedigreed stock in the country nor obJect to Government keeping their stud and herd books for them, but probably most people would subscribe to the proposition that hav- ing these things they should bY their produce showethat they were breeding as good stock for the price as any one could import direct and duty free. If they cannot show this, surely nO one would support a protective system for their benefit for the effect would be that those who desired pedigreed stock to cross with half -bred herds --and they a.re the main support of the whole agricultural industry ----would get worse animals for their purposes and pay a hig er price. Now, in the most important breeds, should an inteading importer apply to know whether say the Percheron Stud Book or the Durham Herd Book ie re- cognized as reliable by thee Govern- ment, he will be told by the Oormnittee that it is not, and he will be invited te register in the Canadian book for these I will outbid my `American Cern- petitor if the seller -will guarantee duty free entry into Canada or if he will guarantee to furnish allthe documents required in Canada for duty free entry in excess of those required in the United States, or if he will sell conditionally on my obtaining free entry. But these are points whieh he can- not effectively raise at an auction. He must be prepared to buy and take' his chances of delay and of being refused free entry. This he may do if he has on hand funds sufficient. But if he has only the same sum available as his competitor bids, he must content himself with buying an inferior animal. Suppose he buys, and he must do so before his case will be considered by the committee, he cannot get them to prenounee beforehand as .to whether if he purchases such'and'such an ani- mal, it would come in duty free. The seller not being a British subject. resi- dent i.n Canada, cannot delteer them duty free. Even if he could he would not do so for the same price as be would take from an American buyer for a straight sale. In a word, the Canadian buyer must be irrevocably committed as owner before he can as- cettain whether he is to get -free entry or pay dUty. 'IVieantime." his anitaal lands in Canada and he "hag to pay duty under protest, or is forced to be-. come a public warehouseman under bond with.. sureties. • If he buy direct from the breeder in England and hold the animal there as owner until by correspondence he has made his course clear he may escape some of the risks, but even then if lee cannot secure free entry he has cer- tain dangers before him, and in any event is debarred from many of the chances to ,make advantageous pur- chases which are open to foreign buy- ers. ontoot Ittputrai wrinliimo!unitopmituiTmotmoititkpiiTiimolliv- ,- I3E5T YEAST' IN THE WORLD.

Those provlimes most in need of better saleable stocksuffer the raost from existing conditions. That the law is not applied is clear. Why it should not be applied has to be explained. Why a private body exer- cises part of the functioas of Govern- ment cannot be satisfactorily explain- ed. No part of a subject's rights should be taken away from him by a body not answerable to the electors and which cannot through the courts be compelled to perform the duties assigned to it for the simple reason that it is a private body and ca.nnot be compelled to perform any more of the duties than it chooses. I brief review of the circumstances suggests certain modificatipns as be Ing imperatively necessary. 1. The Government should publish a list of all foreign records which are generally recbgnized as reliable, Re- cord in these should entitle an animal to free entry. There is no difficulty In making such a list. The National Record Committee have such a list which they use as the basis of enter- ing in their own books although' they will not certify that the books they so use are reliable within the meaning of the Order in Council whea the in- dividual importer wants to obtain free entry. Even if they had not suole a list, the list published by the United States Government affords ,sufficlent information. 2. No private body should have any- thing to say as to the application of the customs law to its compeeitors and free entry should not dmenal in any way on fecerding in any book kept in Canada: , ' 3. The Canadian stud and herd books should be open to voluntary en- try upon such terms as those who keep them see fit. Their present system is more exacting than is thought neces- sary by many foreign. systems. Wheth- er rightly or wrongly so, depends on whether the book Is conceived to be a record of breediog experiments or a history of title. As a voluntary`matter there would be no objection to their following either theory, it is only when they seek to impose their system on others who do not need it that their theories ineerfere with the rights of others and thereby become of any public import- ance. If as a result of the voluntary appli- cation of their present system- of title and so called identification they pro- duce a still better stock for the money than can be procured- aeroad, the country will have reason to congratu- late itself.— That they hope to do so or believe that they can do so is to say. the least cast, in. doubt by their desire to the forcpoint e the system on others! i if you (to know it for certamy, ask even to of refuiing them opponents do that their system and yourself—Willer should I tell it? free entry.

Take it all in all, a foreign buyer knows exactly where his government stands, knows' that it means to. help him to bring in stock duty -free. The Canadian buyer knows that whatever the law may say, 'the practice leaves him in doubt and he. met feel fairly sure that the National Record Com- mittee's system leaves him at a dis- advantage.
