II will be seen by the above that Eng.
lands chief dependence is upon the Unite 4
States. The imports from Russia are stead
lily falling of, while the United States are
as steadily gaining in volume. The above
tabulated statement is conclusive with re.
gard to the superior ability of the United
States over Russia to supply the markets of
the world with wheat. These facts, how
ever, are made still more prominent by
taking an average OF the three frst and ths
three last of the series of years. FOR the first
three year. lS6S.9-70), the average annual re.
'ceipts from Russia were 10, 774 900 cwts, aud
from the United States Is, 79l 900 cwts for
the last three years, the imports averaged,
from Russia, 10, sos, 900 cwts., and from this
country, "A, S25, 900 cwts. Upon this basis of
comparison, there is an increase in imports
from the United States of 81, O3l, 900 cvts.,
or 225 per cent, and in the case of Russia, q
decrease of 2G9, 900 evils"
Events are transporting which are likely 10
deprive Eogland OF commercial intercourse
with Russia, fact that will make England
almost entirely dependent upon the United
deficient in brea6stuifs, but equallys so in ami
NAL food. 1t is stated that the productive
capacity of England is taxed 10 its utmost,
and that there is an annual falling off of
home supplies of food. An official return,
made Of recent date to the house OF com
mons, sets forth this fact In a striking light.
It shows that, in 1867, the number of cattle
sheep and pigs in the united kingdom was
AZ, 200, GOO, while IN 1877 it had fallen to
40 800, 600, decrease of q per cent. within
ten years, in spite of the inducements Of
forded by high prices for animal food. Dur-
ing the. same period, the population had
risen from 30. 33i 900 to SO, 444 600, an in
crease of 1917 per cent. Carrying the COM
parlson some years further back, the dispari-
" between the increase of population and
that Of food imports is still more striking
In 1859 the population of the kingdom was
% $50, OO0 and in 1877, 1914. 900, which
shows an increase during the eighteen years
of II per cent; while, during the same
period, the imports OF animal food and
cereals rose from f24 ,359, 900 to 600 ,692, 000

turn contains table giving the value in
