IMPORTATION OF CATTLE
THE BRITISH EMBARGO.
LIFTING RECOMMENDED. * A. *na N.Z. LONDON. Sept. 15. The Royal Commission on the importation of store cattle reports that the admission of Canadian store stock is advisable, and would tend to cheapen in some measure the meat supply of the country. It would also tend to promote the restoration, and indeed the increase, of the number of live stock after the losses during and since the war. The commission finds that the feeling is general among farmers against the admission of cattle. So far as this is created by apprehension that disease may be introduced, the commission considers that there is no foundation for such apprehension, but the admission may make it more difficult for crofters and small farmers in the highlands to carry on their operations successfully, and to some extent may deprive the Irish farmers of the market they at present enjoy in Great Britain.
