QUALITY OF MEAT
HERDS OF THE DOMINION NEGLECT BY BREEDERS. \X l-XGLiaH VIEWPOINT. Received July 28, 9.32 p.m. LONDON, July 28. The Daily Telegraph’s agricultural editor expresses the opinion tht it will i>e live to ten years before all the meat-producing Dominions are able to send meat of tho same quality-as the Argentine. The foundation stocks of most of the Dominions are only of moderate quality, he says. They could have strengthened tho herds with firstclass breeding stock which, for years, has been selling in Britain at ordinary ■onimercial prices, but opportunities were neglected. . The reason why New Zealand breed ' is have not iinported stud stock from Britain is that the fear of introduction of foot and mouth diseases to this country hav been very real. New Zealand recognises tho value of good British stock, but the danger of spreading the disease has outweighed any desire to purchase without careful thought.—“Ch ronicle.’’
