AN LigrL)orANT LETTER. FROM
PIC 0 ii?. RICO N,VN.
Professor Brown, of the Agricultural
College, Guelph, publishes the following
iThpertant letter :
• Titko, at present, the interesting and
popular question for the farmer of how
best to make profit in the production of
beef. The commercial standing of a fat -
cued cattle beast consists.of • tliree things
of almost equal value : First, that period
from birth up to stall -feeding; second, the
six or seven months of stall -feeding; and,
third, the value of the manure made.
Taking a well-to-do animal, well done to
all along, and the actual cost and value of
everything, including (1) leull service, .(2)
value of the milk and, extra food given
for 23 months ; and, on -'an average,
we have expended the sum of $40. Then
the last seven months -which is stall -feed-
ing, specially. arranged for the highest
results -will cost 045 -together $85, for,.
say, $1,500 lbs. live *weight, _or- just the
market value Of the finiehed atiinaal
in
these times. The third thing is the accu-
mulated quantity and " value of Manure
made durilig these two and a half years;
and by ali fair figures in our advanced
-
agriculture it cannot be put at IcSs,than
$-10. Priteticafly then, to . the. farmer, the
animal destined for • -the sl 'hi is a
tae-ekaleas.. Mantire:making machine, in which relation
-fa
on the :it produces enezhalf of the value of itself,
and this value represents the only- relia,ble
•
source of profit to him, tinder ,the elder
conditions of Inuthandry. But there are
other hearings tothis4uestion. Asa"Manure

derstood to be too high to pity for such
purpose. Indeed, this is correct in the
view of anyof the three valuatars named,
though it tells particularly hard on the
method of the so-called matter-of-fact
farmer. Practically, we (Ontario's farmers)
have been looking at '45 cents per bushel
for corn and 50 cents for pea meal as the
safe figures for cattle feeding. We could
get corn at this two years ago -now no-
thing under one cent per potted, which
difference of one-third represents in the
production of flesh and manure, . per the
100,000 fattening cattle annually from On-
tario, the handsome sum of $400,000. The
animals increasecrat the rate ofl, 1.74 lbs.
per lie,ad per day, or 37 per cent.- upon
their original weight. It took 17 'cents for
food to make one pound of flesh (and its
associations) in animals tliat were pressed
or prenaatured at 29 months old. The food
and flesh thus handled gave 11 ceats value
of manure for every pound of flesh added.
The difference between the cost of addi-
tional flesh and the value of manure ob-
tained was exactly equal to the price got
for the live animal, i.e., p cents per lb. The
value of the manure was equal to one-half
the Value Of the finished anitnal. Were
1 ttle or no value placed upon manure, the
-production of beef under such circum-
stances would lead to serious loss. But,
besides these facts, 'the food thus used in-
creased the value of the original ca -case
from 31 to 6 cents per lb., making au item
of -$27.50 per head. Thus one.poundef new
flesh improved every three pounds of
the old and .added -one-fourth td
the - whole carcase value. ' It is
quite plain, then, ;that we can easily and
profitably .fiuish our beef for exportation
when 21 years old, at whieli tinic.1,500
-lbs. per head can be reached; Ibuttlie other
side of the question is, would we have Morel

it will be remenibered by students of the
hisiory of couinierce of Great Britain that
the trade with the East Indies was done
almost exclusively with silver, large
quantities of which were, shipped to that
country. It was noticed that little of this
silver ever returned, which wise not, per-
Imaii, strange, as it was not required
in ifritain, but what seeingd extraordinary
was . the fact that notwithstanding
the great amouut of the circulating medium
w1411 the East Indies received there was
a clironic scarcity of small change there.
Inqttiries were institueted, when it was dis-
covered that the natives absorbed all the
silye pieces they could get hold of to
marinfacture into ornaments for their gods .
and 4beir persons. If a pieqe of. silver, no
ruattin- of what denomination, ever got
into the hands of an East Indian of any
tribe ;it was nevei- again seen to be used as .
a eir4Ulating medium. When Christianity
and Oucation extended, the practice of •
hoarding silver became less general, and
now there is no scarcity of*small silver in
that 1 country. But who would Or
couldl imagine -that a practice which
the 4uperetitioni of the natives of '
India I 'encouraged a century ago ' would:
be revived by the ladies of Canada, and that .
the deNire of our,[wives and daughters to
