How the Farmer Gets Loft.

If ever a tax was imposed out of "pure
cussedness' it is the tariff On common
salt. This substance is one of the prime
necessities of life. Man might possibly
find a substitute for bread or meat, but
in some form or other he must have salt
for his blood, for his tissues, for hk
brain, and all the secretions which help tc
carry through the processes of digestion,
Salt is not only a necessity to man, but
one Of The most important raw materials
used in manufacturing industries. 1t is
chiefly used in the United States by far.
mers, meat packers and fish curers.
Farmers have a multitude Of uses TO,
salt. They place it in licking pans, tc
keep their cattle and sheep in good
health. They sprinkle fodder with it.
Butter will not keep without salt, sc
large quantities Of it are used for this
purpose. Then every n knows that
cheese does not taste of salt for nothing.
The immense meat packing industries
Of the west use very large quantities OF
salt in making compressed corned beet
and in other modes Of preserving fresh
meat.
Fishermen down east also use salt in
fish curing. Not small quantity either,
since in the year 1885 they paid $126, e99
for it.
Large meat packers are very rich, and
powerful in a political sense. Nearly
all their preserved goods are exported.
In actual figures So, g OFT worth Of
canned beef products, and $2,617,058
worth of sailed and picked beef were
exported from the United States in the
year 1883.
But fish Gamers and meat packers
have apparently a much greater pull
with the powers that be than farmers
have. Because, whereas the govern
ment, in the year ending June, 1887, col
lected 81, 43S, 031 duty on imported salt,
neither the meat packers o the fish can
ners paid any portion of this tax, or else
had a rebate Of the amount which they
paid when their goods were exported.
OF the entire quantity Of salt imported
into this country, at least two-thirds are
for the farmers uses. No matter what
price fine foreign salt is, the dairy farmer
who makes butter must apparently buy
it or suffer his butter to be classed
among inferior qualities.
count of the SILT in the dairy products
which he exports out of this country.
The fish curer gets his salt free; the meat
packer gets a rebate Of the entire duty
and the farmer gets left.
