PROSPECTS FOR PRODUCERS.
Wk could look to the future of this country, said the Prime Minister, the Hon. W. F. Massey, in the House of Representatives, with perfect confidence. Most people believed there would be a decrease iu the purchasing power of our best customers —the meat dealers ot the United Kingdom—when the war came to an end, but new markets were opening up, aud in America the Panama Canal gave us the whole of the Eastern States to deal with. Our exhibits at the San Francisco Exhibition had aroused great interest, and
the enterprise had proved the greatest success. This initial work should be followed up with efforts to promote trade. He was going to ask for power, in about six months’ lime, to send some live commercial man to represent the Dominion through the Eastern Stales of America. The Government had already made enquiries in regard to the possibilities there, and the prospects for our products were particularly bright. He was prepared to do business wffh our own fellow citizens, members of our own Empire, first, but if we could not find markets in our own dominions we could go to the country where the population was much of the same stock as ourselves.
