"EAT MORE MEAT."
The meat trade, writes the London correspondent of tho l'astoral Review, is thought to be contemplating tho raising ot a new fund for the purpose of national advertising, in an ''Lat .More Meat" campaign. A levy of id per stone of eight pounds, on producers or importers arid on butchers is talked about. Such a levy on an annual consumption for Great* Britain of 1,921,000 tons of meat would yield moro than £1,120,0K1. Such a lew would ho about one-half ot one per rent, on the Helling price of I English beef, .Li on Argentine chilled and 1.25 on frozen beef. An expenditure ol £50,000 annually has been mentioned, but there arc tho«e who think that twice this amount would not servo so good a purpose as a decision ot meat retailers, to alter the stylo of their shops, and run retail meat stores* more on trio lines of American dispaly retail meat marketing.
