OF Interest to Farmers.

In the course of a conversation with
one of the heaviest importers of steel
and iron in this city, he said, speak
ing of his difficulties, caused by the
late rise of prices in England and
Germany, that mild steel billets which
a year ago could be imported for 800
could not now be imported for less
than $50, and American billets are
selling for s35.
A great deal has been said and writ
ten to farmers, of the injustice to
them of the tax of 45 per cent, ad
valorem on billets, and elaborate cal
culations have been made showing the
increased cost of fencing arising from
this tax on the raw material of wire
Nothing, however, will be said by free
trade orators of the present state of
the market; nor will free trade papers
use these prices to point moral that
that is unfavorable to foreign inter-
ests.
In the last calendar year our i'm
ports of steel ingots, blooms, billets,
&C., were 73,76S tons, as against 1O1,- :
S12 tons in the calendar year 1888.
The same two periods our imports of
steel rails decreased from 63,O16 tons
to 6,202: this was decrease of 81.
S5S tons, or over 81 per cent. If we
had taken as much in 1889 as in 1888
does any one believe that billets would
be selling in England as low as 81
now? If our protective policy had
not enabled us to make 100000
tons of Bessemer steel last year, does
any one believe that our farmers
would not now be paying for their
fencing on the basis of billets at $75
per ton instead of $35 as at present?
