Be- tween 1913 and 1918 cheee imports to the 'United Kingdom from all countries showed little change. Ex- ports from the Netherlands declined sharply, while exports from the Un- ited States to Great Britain advanc- ed. Canadian exports to the United Kingdom increased. In the past two decades Canadian cheese exports have steadily declined. This was clue to a shift from cheese production in Canada to production of butter.

To Rowland Hill. a native of Kid- derminster, must go the credit for the inauguration of the popular post. He was a secretary of the South Austra- lian Colonization Society in London. He had been a schoolmaster with ad- vanced ideas of educational reform. He was an ingenious mechanic and among other accompiisltntents invent- ed a rotary- printing press. But the re- form of the postal system was his abiding passion. He itad known only too well the burden which it imposed on the poor. Tie never forgot how his nt0ther dreaded the arrival of a let- ter; he had been sent out to sell z1 bundle of rags in order to raise the necessary postage which was not G: those days prepaid. In 1835 Hill began to devote every utouteu: of his spay'' time to the problem He trltsd to get into the London post ofttoe in order to examine the system from the in- side. FIe was refused. He then set about the task of assembling mat- erial, blue books and such, with which to make an exhaustive study. Then he wrote a pamphlet. It was probably the most important.
