THE VALUE Qua HoME MARKEr-At,
tariff meeting recently held IN Rochester, Mr. Har.
Vey Ely, on intelligent miller, made some sensible
remarks, IN the course Of which he contendod that
our domestic market for produce was far m ore i'm
portant than our foreign market In 1925 he said
wheat and Hour from Northern states seeking a mar
ket IN canada, and through the Eric canal, were
equal TO about 600 900 bbls in lsi0 10 about 600
600 bills; about two thirds OF the flour which went
through the canal found market in New England
and the eastern part Of New York; while if We
compare the ten years after the Fed, raj Govern
ment was estAblished-l790 TO lSOO-with The
average OF the last ten years, we 81 vi find that
Notwithstanding the increase of the p lulation and
cultivation, our exports Of Hour had oy increased
about 100000 barrels. Ii was clear % his mind
that we could have no sure and stable market for
our manufactures, unless we had il at home; and
that the adequate protection ofAmerican agriculture
was the first duty of an American Government,
He expressed himself as adverse to the policy
OF depending upon fuctuatng foreign markets, 10
the neglect OF our own manufactures. The Troy
Wing, abiding TO the subject, says,-
"New England, at the present time, with po-
pualon Of about 100000, consumes annually
moro than 100000 barrels Of Western and south
ern -four. Let that population be doubled by the
increase Of manula and il necessarily follows
that they will consume more than 600 900 barrels
OF the same flour annually. H. on the other hand,
manufactures decline, remain stationary, the DO
puia'ion OF the manufacturing States would also
decline or remain stationary; and consequently no
ADDITIONAL demand for agricultural products grow
up within them. 10 that event, except in case Of
short crop in Europe. our farmers would very soon
md their crops drug in the market. Wheat in
western States would fall to 25 cents per bushel,
and corr 10 half that sum; and the price Of other
agricultural products be proportonably reduced"
We give these views for what they are worth,
although II should be remembered the greater tho
9uanty OF wheat produced, the better and chea per
Tor manufacturers and mechanics as the people of
the United States would be first supplied. and then
the surplus only expored.-Ereh paper.
