SIR J, YOGEL AND LOCAL MARKETS.
TO THE EDITOB. Sin, — I hope any farmer In this district who may be inclined to swallow Sir Julias Vogal's local market theory will study that part of hla Papanul speech dealing with Freetrade. The local market jfcheory is " jbhat Protection will bo irorease the population of jbowne, that the whole of our' surplus produce will be consumed In the colony, and therefore the price will riie." I At Papanul Sir JuHub gjyes the following as the yearly average cost of food m different countries — United Kingdom) £13 Pj ; France, £11 8) ; Belgium Bnd Holland, £J.O H; Germany, £}.! §i ; Ufiltod States, £11 2s. In another part of hla Papanul speech he Bay? that the United Kingdom apd the United States apa typiflij of jibe two syst^tns, Protection and Froatiada. It would be amusing and Instructive to hear the Colonial Treasurer reconciling the local market theory with the figures quoted.— l am, etc., VoqBIrPBOJIHi'j;.
