Raise it by a duty on flour, which can and should be produced here. The higher grades of flour would still be imported, but the great mass of the importation would come then as wheat. I say let the wheat come as it will to feed the million, but let us grind it here. Some years ago I remember reading a speech by an American who said, " We are sending our wheat to England, and we are great fools ; we should grind it here, send them the flour ; rear pigs and cattle with the offals, and send them t...he meat. " This advice of the American is now acted upon, and is one of the most serious blows that has struck the farmer in this country. This year for the first time the acreage of wheat sinks below two millions, being less than half what it was in the fifties. As Mr. W. R. Mallett, of Exeter, points out, the wheat harvests From 1852 to 60 were sold for an average per year of £36, 500, 000 „ 1861 „ 70 „ „ „ £32, 031, 000 „ 1871 „ 80 „ „ „ £24, 137, 000 „ 1881 „ 90 „ „ „ £15, 180, 000 In 1892 it realised £9, 400, 000 „ 1893 not more than £7, 000, 000 Our farmers will receive for their wheat this year less than half they did in 1890, less than one -third than they did in 1880, less than one-fourth than they did in 1870, less than one-fifth they did in 1860.
