THE British Agricultural Gazette,
the leading farm journal of Great
Britain, is laying itself out" in al
most every number in favor of high
protective tariff on cattle and dressed
meats, so as to give the farmers a last
chance to retrieve their falling for
tunes, and also to save the people of
England from the painful task of
consuming inferior beef. Besides the
danger from the cattle plague, the
Gazette says that there is danger lest
the people of Great Britain, if they
continue to consume American beef,
will forget what good beef is. 1t
gives no end of diagrams to show
where the choice cuts of beef come
from, and how lacking in this respect
is the Texas OK as compared with the
plump Devonshire or the lordly Tees
water. But all the same, as soon as
American cattle are withdrawn from
the English markets the price of beef
goes up, and that is fact which out
weighs all the diagrams the Agricul-
tural Gazette can print in the course
of a year.
