it. says: The num Der of cattle
shipped from this country during the

nearly 100000 head, while the total
value OF such exports showed a gain
ot upwards Of s9,00u,OOO. Boston

In the United States with one ex-

over l6l,OO0 head were shipped from

An idea Of the increasing impor-
lance Of our export cattle trade can
be gained from tho followers figures,
which show the exports of live cattle

The United Kingdom is practically
the only foreign market to which live
cattle can be exported from the

probable that considerable amount
OF beef from American cattle
slaughtered in Great Britain hnds its
