PRESILU RI

| BRITONS HEAVIER BEEF

Heavier and better fleshed cattle are
in demand by United Kingdom feeders
o8 a result of the fat cattle ‘bonus
scheme which came into effect August
1937, in Great Britain, according , to
advices received by the Dominion gov-
ernment, Under the new bonus plan
cattle must be held: on fead at least
ninety days after importation, before
they qualify for: the. ‘bonus, : Lighter
Jand thiner cattle require up -to 160
days ‘on. feed to qualify for the five
shillings per ewt (112 Ibs.) “quality”
cattle bonus or the two shillings and
six pence per cwt, paid for “ordinary”
cattle that are imported.

The immediate effect of the recent
bonus payment system has been, it is
stated; to place the ‘beast on the mor-
ket at-the earliest date it:can qualify
other. Consequently, the nearer an
tyne and weight when secured, the
sooner it is ready to market. Such an
animal is‘ evidently required as a feed-
er or “store” and is paid for accord-
ingly. The-effect of this apparent
changze in demand. on.the part of the
British feeder is. important to Cana-
dians, who contemplate exporting: cat-
tle to the United. Kingdom market, as

quired. Steers around 1150-Ib. weight
and fairly well finished are declared
be-in favor in Norfolk, Birkenhead
area will take leaner kinds -of about

to 1150 Ib. stores, better finished than
formerly, are considered about right.
About 1100 lb. is commonly ‘preferred.

IMPORTED PAPERS

It sounds like bringing coals to New-
castle to talk of Canada importing pa-
per, yet we buy great quantities abroad
to the value of, betwen six and seven
million dollars per year, ‘They include

esting to note how certain papers come
