HIGH MEAT in SCOTLAND.

Dispatches this week from Glasgow,
Scotland. indicate that high meat prices
are causing much agitation there. says
the National Provisioner. The members
OF the Glasgow United Fleshers' society
have resolved to raise the retail price OF
butcher meat by one penny per pound.

years, Canada would be able to export
large numbers of fat cattle, but the i'm
ports at Glasgow from Canadian ports
show a falling of Of fully Is per cent dur

imports home stocks have been used UP

much prospect that prices OF live
stock will fall until the autumn, when the
home fed lots will be ready for the mar

landed at Merklands Wharf, Glasgow,
from Canadian and United States ports
for the first five months OF the present
year. together with the figures for the
corresponding period OF 1907:
