ONE of the proprietors of large landed ss-
tates in England and Ireland admits that it is
impossible for English farmers to compete
with American wheat, and advises them to de-
vote their attention to raising cattle. Judg-
ing from the success of American beef, butter
and cheese in the English market, there will,
however, be little to hope for in that direction.
Ireland, since the failure of the potato crop,
bles, except for home consumption; and dairy
farming, fax culture, and stock raising have
made the farming districts Of the North very
prosperous; but they have not land enough,
people will eat our beef cheese and butter.
