sRlToN's FOOD SUPPLY.

A careful study Of the question Of
the food supply Of the United King
dom, leading to results somewhat at
variance with ideas entertained on the
subject In some quarters, is contrib
uted to the Journal Of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society by Mr.. r. F. Crawford.
The writer begins by estimating the
amounts received at home and import
ed from abroad Of the four fundament-
al articles Of food-wheat, meat, pota-
toes and milk-for all these must, he
holds, be considered In the study Of
the problem. The results obtained
show that the home contribution Is. In
the case Of wheat, less than Is per
cent Of the whole consumption; OF
meat. as regards which the state Of
things Is much more satisfactory,
about g. per cent: Of milk (including
butter and cheese), about IS per cent:
and Of potatoes. practically the whole.
