r , tits litor of 714,1 Nem :Record;
DnfnSrttt-Iatn so deeply impressed
with the importance of the ,adventages
which • would acorns to the farming ins
treats of Canada, ,from a more extensive
and general Lembo; of the coarse grains
to live stook On the farms on which
they are :grown, that I desire to call
attention'tb the subjeob matter of two
13u11entius which have been issued re
cantly -from the, Central Experimental
Farm, Ottawa, and of which I enclose
eopiea. '
',The 'fiat of these Bulletins deals
With .'e$per invents in t:,e feeding of Swine
and shows.' how the ordinary cere:lle,
which can be produced sucoessful'y in this
country, can be fed to swine with profit.
By• the consumption on the farina of
iSgarse grains, the elements of fertility,
•which are, so essential to the growth of
good crops, are left on the farm in the
term of manure. The permanent suc-
cess of argiculture in this country 'must'
'tleliend on the maintenance of the fer-
tility of the soil. A continuous and
general selliugof grains, tends to deplete
the soil, of -the strength and substances
which it requires for the bearing of large
crops o`l' good quality. Our climate and
tke. adaptation of our soil for produce
,ing, feed for swine and cattle, give us
exceptional advantages in the excellent
health which is enjoyed by the domes
ti0 animals on our farms, and by their
• freedom from diseasecr of a serioua nature.
The attention of the merchants in
,Europe, who buy large quantities of food
,for, the millions of people in the irides-
. trial centers there, htis•le"en directed to
Canada aa a country from which the en-
amel liroducts are of a pitrtaoularly ex-
'cellent quality. Among the cheese im-
portations into the British markets ours
e.has now the highest reputation. Our
creamery butter is fa -.t gaining a good
hold" an the market, and when kepi-
quantities
aegerquantities of itare made during the wits -
ter months and shipped when the risk
'of injury from transportation is reduced
to a minimum, it, bids fair to win a piaci
;which will be relatively as high as that
which is now held by Canadian cheese.
:Tbe superior excellence of the swine
products which are sent from Canada is
shown by the current rnarket rpeorts
• in Great Britain; and yet though Can-
adlan bacon and hams will bring in that
Market from or.e to two cents per
pound more than those from the United
States, during the last three years the
United States have, on an average, exe
ported to the United Kingdom 444 mil-
lion pouncle, while Canada has not sent
more than 6 million pounds. Again
,w.h1lu the United States have, during
the' same period, sent about 21 million
,lbs of pork every year to the United
lmri om,.-.Canada has only sent about
7,00 lbs. In lard also the United States
. send over 100 million pounds annually,
ew•hittetanadaedoesenit-send • mme-t.hare
'67,000 pounds. It is within the easy
reach of our fanners •ti;' ; oh
larger share of this market, with direct
advantage to their pockets, as well as
to:the fertility of their fields, through
the feeding of swine on barley, wheat or
'ether grains that have been slightly
,damaged, in exceptional circumstances,
by frost or unfavorable weather. Farm•
ers would thus find a profitable outlet
for. what have hitherto been unsaleable
.products at remunerative prices. The
experiments which have been tried at
the Dominion Experimental Farm
show that froip 43 to 73 cents per bush
el, may be reliaied for froz ,n wheat when
fed to swine, whela they bring five cents
per pound live weight.
-To meet the requirements of the for
eign markets, it seems desirable that
the farmers should sell their swine -a-
live, din order that they may be slaugh-
tered, dressed and cured in such urn-.
form manner so as to meet the prefer.
• eneee of those foreign customers who are
willing and able to pay the highest price
per Oland.for the products.
• X desire also to call attention to the
information which has been presented
OAF'S, farmers . in the ,pages of Bul-
lentin No. 16, giving results from ex-
periments in the feeding of Steers.
else . economy of _growing fodder.00rn
for ensilage or for feeding as cured
fodder -corn, is clearly set forth by the
ecpeeiments which have been made
and reported on. In our competition
.with the producers of foods in other
countries, oar ultimate suttees must
arise ''from our farmers adopting those.
methods which will enable them to pro-
' duce at the lowest possible cost, in
order that they may have a margin of
Arent for themselves, no matter in what
a iarkoet they mayameet competitors.
It appears that a large number of farm-
eers in Canada, feed. excessive quantities
' of meal and concentrated feedsto steers
which are being fattened, By adopting
the methods which are recommended
iti the bullentin for the fattening of
cattle, it may become more profitable
for our farmers to finial until fit for the
butcher, all the beef cattle which they
taxa to sell.
t eel. confident that when the atten-
f the farmers is directed to these
Ts, they will derive great benefit
frothe adoption of the best methods
of feeding both classes of stook. It
Woulct be to the advantage of every one
intreeted in the welfare of Canada, to
encourage and assist the farmers to pro,
duos What they have to sell in the most
economical way, and to make it of the
very best quality. They would thus ob-
tain larger profits, as 'well as a mostede-
nirable and valuable preference in the
trtarket to which Canadian products are
finally sent.
