BRITISH BEEF AND BREAD.
America Produces 1t I'm such GUAM
titles as TO Explain EngIand's
Fondness for Her Cousin.


Tables issued of the quantities and
values OF the various forms of agricul-
tural produce imported into the
United Kingdom show further in
crease over those of the immediately
preceding year alike in the groups of
live animals, of dead meat, of dairy
produce, of eggs, and Of poultry.
Measured in aggregate value, the pay
ments made for imports Of animal
produce in 1907 exceeded Ell 100000,
which is larger total than has before
been recorded, the more material in
creases over 1896 being in round num-
bers nearly G 1,000,000 in live animals
imported for food, e2,500,000 for dead
meat and G 100000 for dairy produce.
Cattle imported alive in 1897 num-
bered 61s,000 head and the sheep 6R,-
900. These animals represent in the
aggregate an addition to the meat sup
ply of the year of something like $780,
600 hundredweight, while the beef,
mutton, bacon, hams and other forms
of imported meat were over 4,700,000
hundredweight. These two classes of
sea-borne food together exceeded by
1,650.00o hundredweight the meat i'm
ports of 1896, and, collectively. sup
piled ration of 81 pounds per head of
the population against a foreign sup
ply of 40 pounds per head on the aver
age of the five years-1so1-95. As the
home-production has been nearly sus-
tanned, these figures suggest further
development of the meat-consuming
power of the population, which was
the subject Of detailed examination in
the report on the returns for 1896.
More meat, home and foreign, in the
aggregate was available in 1897 than in
any previous year, and the growth of
supplies continues to outstrip that of
population. The conditions of the
year point to the consumption of 131
pounds by each unit of the people, as
against an average of 1872 pounds per
annum in the quinquennium 1s91-95, as
much as Al per cent. of the whole be-
ing the produce of other countries.

Imports which are of vegetable origin
have not moved upward with the same
regularity as the aggregate values of
the imports belonging TO the animal
category. The wheat imports of 1897
were less than in any calendar year
since 1920. and less by SO pounds per
head of the inhabitants of the United
Kingdom thar in the previous year.
The United States supplied two
thirds OF the 61s .000head received COM
ing from that country. while Argen-
tine sheep were landed alive in 1897 in
greater numbers than those from any
ovher country. The dead meat inn
ports are. as formerly. more than half
of American origin. three-fourths of |
the fresh beef imported, and more

duction. The supplies from Australia |

The American correspondents in Gu
ba are wrong in assuming that Blanco
will commit suicide when Havana is
taken. They said the same thing about
Admiral Cervera. The fact is that no
people in the world are so free from
suicides as the spaniards. They may
kill others. but they rarely kill them
selves, and statistics bear out the as
sertion. In spite of everything said to
the contrary, the Spaniards have a.
strong religious sentiment and fear the
wrath of God.
