(Gout !nova fr•on) page 4.) can understand and it would appear front this that if we had a thorough system of cold storage our meat, would not only reach the British mar- ket in good condition, but it could be kept until it was recittired and model bring a better price. The 1naPket would. be relieved of its present timer - Utility and our Canadian farmers would receive at least from $8 to $12 each more for titeir fat cattle than they do at the present time, Cold storage would also enable the farmers in our older districts to make large sums of money on poultry. English people are fond of fowl and would gladly bey all we could sell to them at good )rices if we were pre- pared. to establish a market and pro- vide a supply all the year around. Now, with incubators, brooders, cold storage, cheap feed, and a very soh - able climate, the Canadian fanner should be able to hold this trade against the world. Cold storage should not only increase the price of our poultry by five or six cents a pound but it should enable us to ex- port ten or twenty times as much as we do now. A poultry yard under these circumstances would certainly be a very suitable and proper adjunct to a fruit or dairy farm. Cold storage would also enable our farmers to make vast sums of money nut of fruit which. at the present time is fed to hogs or cattle or allowed to rot on the ground. We have an ndntost unlimit- ed market for fruit. The people of Europe will take all the good, sound, healthy fruit we can send to thein. We have also a very extensive market M our own country, one that will soon be very large indeed. New On- tario and the hinter -land of Quebec will soon and, filled with an immense mining population that will look to older Canada for their fruit and dairy supplies. Our northwest, a compara- tively fruitless country, will soon be filled with an immense multitude of wealthy, prosperous people. The set- tlers in that country are already look- ing with longing eyes towards the orchards and fruit farms of Ontario and old Canada. They want good fruit and plenty of it. They care lit- tle about price ; they have the money and are ready to pay for it. When in Saskatchewan last summer, I paid 10 cents a pound for early apples, that is at the rate of $0 a bushel. I inquired of the retailer how much he paid for thein and he said $2.50 a bushel. Two weeks after that when I returned to Ontario I saw hundreds, I might say thousands of bushels of these early ap- ples that had become over-riped dur- ing the hot weather and were falling from the trees and rotting on the ground. With proper cold storage these apples should have been worth at least $1 a bushel on the trees and they could have been sent out for 50 cents. That would be let us say, $1.50 on the trees. Canada produces 53,- 000,000 bushels of apples during the year, but we export only 5,000,000 bushels and the farmers do not get $1 a bushel ; I do not believe the farm- ers get more than 50 cents a bushel. Of course the farmers at the present tirne do not take care of their or- chards, they do not look after them and you cannot blame them as the frait is practically valueless. Cold storage and a dollar a bushel would soon change all this, and I venture to say that in a very short time the same trees would be producing not 53,000,- 000 'bushels, but 100,000,000 bushels of fruit of better quality because the trees would bo grafted and pruned and cared for. That would mean $100,000,000 to the farmers of Canada each year instead of less than $5,000,- 000 which they receive at the present time. How long, I would like to know, are the farmers of Canada to be compelled to suffer this fearful loss P Then there is the question of fish. In every transportation problem the question of return freight is of a great deal of importance. In connection with this we must remember that we will soon have railway communica- tion with James bay, Hudson bay, Lake Athabaska and many other northern and western points where fruit will be scarce and dear but where beautiful large, whitefish and other fish will be plentiful and cheap. Now, if we send a train of refrigerator cars to any of these northern points loaded with tomatoes and grapes and peaches and pears and cherries and plums and early apples, the cars will not be si ited for bringing back grain or ore, the silver ore which our friend (Mr. W. E. Maclean) has been telling us about, but would be exactly what would be , required to bring back these beautiful, nice white fish. And more than this these whitefish conlcl be kept in the cold storage warehouse in the farm- ers' neighborhood, until the farmers and others were ready to purchase and pay for and use them. Or, if we chose to send a train of ears' to Hali- fax or to St. John or the Bale de Cha- letu•, or any other seaport there also would be found fresh fish in abund- ance for•retnrn freight, I have been told that in these districts sometimes, in the very hot seasons of the year fish have actually been known to be spread on theround aid ploughed in for manure. They are handicapped in selling their fish nearly as badly as we are with our apples. If cold .stor- age would give our farmers beautiful, nice, fresh whitefish at 1 cent, 2 cents or even 4 cents a pound, and enable then to sell their beef at 10 cents or 12 cents a pound it would provide them with what is now a dainty, a rarity, and would also at the very same time nut a lot of money into their pockets, .Chen think of the advantage it would be to our fishermen ; they might be benefited to the extent of millions of dollars a year. This system of cold storage should be constructed and maintained and run in the interest of the people of Ca- nada, The government should either own and control it themselves or should encourage some private com- pany to do so. The difficulty with a private company is that they would have a monopoly and naturally wish- ing to make money for themselves they might not treat the farmers faair- ly, There is no difficulty and no doubt whatever about it being a pay- ing investment.

We roust remember—and it will be well for the government to remember -- that three out of five citizens of Cana- da are connected with the farm, and that three out of four are connected with our fame and fisheries, while not more than one out of four hun- dred are directly, connected with the manufacture of iron, steel or lead, Now, the farmers do not cask the gov- ernment to give thein a bonus ; they do not ask for a bounty, All they ask the government to do is to make a good and profitable investment and to assist the fanners of Canada at the same time, That.
