A despatch, frOM Teronto •overlie-
lltr. F. W. Hodson, Demi:don Live
Stocis Commissioner, returned on
Saturday from Great Britain, where
he hes been engaged SinCe May study-
1ng the conditions of the English
'market in regard to the export of
Canadian. live stock and animal pro -
duets. In the course of his investi-
gation he visited every stock centre
in Great Britain.
After careful study Mr. Madsen is
convinced that there is opportunity
for great enlargeirient of the British
market for Canadian products.
The Englislx people look very fairer -
ably on the development of whet
they. call the colonies, but what
would better be called Imperial Can-
ada and the otttlying portions of the
Empire. The British consumers are
ready to buy largely, and Canadian
products are among the best that
enter their market.
THE EXPORT OF BACON.
Pre-eminent =dug Caoadian ex-
ports to Great Britain is bacon.
Canadian bacon is the most import-
ant prodUct which reaches Great
Britain from any country, and it is
rapidly gaining favor.
Canadian bacon and cheese are in-
deed staples, and Canadian poultry
Is attracting very favorable cont-
inent. As soon as proper shipping
fecilities are provided this product
will rival becon. The best grade of
chickens which have been fattened at
the Dominiem feed stotions in recent
years are better than any I saw on
the English market. Except in the
case of beef and mutton, Dritish
meats are not superior to those pro-
duced in Canada. There is no rea-
son why our cattle end sheep shall
not in time hold a place equal to our
bacon, but in order to bring this
about greeter care must, be devoted
to feeding and breeding. The British
consumers do not want an excessive-
ly fat animal, but one fed so as to
be full of lean meat, witlx it moder-
