THE IMPORTATION OF FOREIGN BUTTER From Hoard 'a Pmrytiuin: The loworlWRof the titriu" ha result ed in the importation of simiio foreign but tor, as would naturally lc expected. This, nt first, caused some tino:winea anion t; dealers in Witter, who ooulil not forseo tho otent to vhich foreign but ter would bo imported in tho future. This fiIiiiir is responsible for tho ro cent Huctuntions in the prices of but ter. Farmers nmt everybody else should remember ttmt there is still a tn of 2 conts per pound on butter. Ailili S to this tho railroad and stonmthip charges for transportation, we find that the American producer h a pro tection of about -4 cents a pound Vtn should bo sutliciont to oiTset tho di (Ter ence, in the cost of labor in foreign eountrios. In Kurnpo women and child ren porform a great deal of the outside labor, which reduces the cost of pro duction considerably in these eountrios. The greatest advant ige. however, that the Kuropoan farm t Im. over the American farmer lies in the fact t'it he receives much more butterfat jer caw than the American far nor does This i only natural whe 1 nvo co.isi.Kt that the European farmer give m e thought and care to the ftedinR, and breeding and ceneral welfare of his livestock. In other words, he is mak iutr dairying a businefs instead of a mere side issue. 1 think I am safe in saving that he gets from one-third to one-half more butterfat per cow than the average American farmer dues .My Arm conviction is, nevertheless, that when the American farmer turns his attention to dairying seriomly an I once realizes what tho problems are. li will devise some mean which will en able him to produce more cheaply. He will never put his women and children to work in the rieKK lie will meet this kind of competition by more hu manitarian methods, and by the appli cation of skill and science to atrrlcjl lural and dairy problems. Even should another political party eome into power s-oon, it is doubt: ll if we will ever a train have a much higher tariff on dairy pioducU. We certainly cannot expect to have a taritf of 6cenu pound on butter as we have had up to the present time. A certain amount of competition is a (rood thing. It stimulate?. The dairy min is much like the man on a bicycle. He a 't Und still. He hag eider got to go forward or fall over. I believe he will gj f jrward. T!'e quality of the European butter, t u:: us a whole, is superior to Ameri c terter. This is because the Euro I?an fmef not only gives more atten U t feeding and breeding cattle, but ho alto takes greater care of the milk and cream that he se.nds to tho manu facturer. And the manufacturer of butler is like the manufacturer of any other article. His finished orjduct de ponds for its quality on the kind of raw material used. The cjuntries from which we may expect competition are New Zealand, Australia, Argentine Republic, and Siberia. '-Voile some butter has been imported from Denmark, 1 do not look f ir mjeh butter from that country. Tho ::nih people already have estih- traie with Great Britain. The h.ne are very fun 1 of go d to eat and they an; one of tK "st onvJmers of butter in th . Tney demand a very fine irr.i . of fresh lnnih. 2,01 I boxos fresh Ar gentine, ami 23 paekiiRt from South ern Kunuw. The Paiih butter coots .1IJ cent , delivered in Now Yotfc. So. then' is no money in the importation of butter of this ipialitv. Last luno.W. IHr-of butter were brought into this country through San Francisco, 2 lbs. in July, ami MV lbs. in August. These, of course, were sample lots of butter. In October tM. 200 lbs. were imported, in Novem ber .tl5.StO, in December asi,al. and in January 74l. IM lbs. This butter oi.sts from & to 30 cents per piund. The great bulk of this butter came Irom Now Zealand when our market broke. Kvorvono who iniHrted this nutter has rout money on It. not only ' because of the drop in the prices, but ; because some of the New Zealand but-! ter which was stored when the prices went down, turmtd tlshy. As a result, dealers who had contracted for further I shipment, sent them on to England, profering to lake their losses over there rather than keep it in this country ! lui-ex1". J far with foreign j buttt-: .svH.vU thtt the lowering of i the t. trill may hnve the same etrect a J opening up tfato that have shut out water from a low plnce. The water rushes in with a tremendous velocity that looks for a while as if it would sweep everything berore it; nut on the turmoil sulfides mid the water falls back and finds it own level. Most of the foreifn countries were verr anxious to test our markets. They have tested them and so far without much success. I expect to see condi tions readjust themselves very soon. Our greatest nov I in America tud is more co-operation among the agri cultural interests and greater study , and attention to general agricultural j oroblomtt. We are blessed in this coun try vith excelle.it .il anil climate con ditions. Our soil in the central west is adapted to the growth of all forage plants. We do njt have to use ferltlix- ers as they do in Europe. Hence, we can produce food of all kind more cheaply than they can. if we apply the same amount of skill and attention. The European farmer has to give strict attention to firming in order to make a livelihood, as their soil is not as productive as ours. He must maki the very' best use of hh materials and he does. In closing. I repeat thax I do nut see anything alarmin in the dairv situu t on. The iittie competition which we will have will pr jve a healthy stimulus to our farmers ; it may seem hard fur awhile, but I believe It will work out all right in tho end.; Illinois G. I.. McKay.

I iiro -villn to pay for it This Denmark is at present supply., to them. There seems to be no reH-j' to expect the Danish will ive up th. p -Stable mirket to send all thi-ir i. it. ter to this country. It may be safely stbted that the im portation of furoign bi' cr into th. country will not effect our best fjr.i of butter, as this will be superior t the butter sent from the othc-r -r ries I have mentioned. On tKt: I-, I am inclined to believe that the lit' t corni)et;t:ori wo will get stimulate our people so that .vn v. .1 produce more butter and better t,ut'-r in the futarn than we have ev. r dr.t in the past. We need not expect to be swamped by nny reat invasion of fur ei(n butier. Only a curtain iimoun. of butter it produced in the world and a certain amount of this is required for homo use. If all the butter made should be sunt to the United States there would be a butter famine in every country, which would have seri ous nsfuhi. Hence, I cannot see any thing Hlrmin-; in the dairy situation tt the present tirnc. Up to date there have arrived in New York 1,181,522 pounds of butter; 1179 casks carne from Imdon, 52 from Liverpool, 1J0 from Hull, 12 from Havre, 2000 from Copenhagen, .119 from Hamburg, 5 from Kotterdarn, 13 from Trieste, and 10 from I'alenno; also 5,9(17 boxes from London, 0 boxes from Li crpool, and 2,011 boxes from Iiuenos Aires, making a total importa tion of 0,930 casks and 10,980 boxes. The caski average 125 lbs. and tho boxes 5G lbs,, which makes the total 1,481,522 lbs. It is- also interesting to note that of the imports thus far 5,837 caskb weio Siberian butter, mostly last Bummer'h make and of low grade; 7,907 boxes wore cold storago Australian butter bought on the London market, 1,001 frcHii Now Zealund, 1,035 casks COLONIAL RANGE $65.00 Range for $55.00 The Best ol Values Ranges $:S.OO Up If You are Looking for a Specially Good Article at a Reduced Price Give Us a Call.
