BRINGING ur- FATHER

Dr. A. C. Ruddick, Dairy

(C ntinued) v The freight rate on butter from Montreal to London is $1.74 a hund- redweight. ‘The rate‘ on cheese is $1.81. The rats from Auckland to Vancouver is two cents per pound gross, which includes the weight of package and everything, for cheese; for butter the rate is 4s 6d for 56 pound boxes. It costs six cents more to take it to Vancouver than to London. The rate from Australia to Vancouver is 5 shillings for a 56 pound box. It was hard to say when the export of butter began. There was considerable exported at Con- federation, that is, butter stored up in summer and shipped without re- frigeration, in the winter months. Witness would not say very much about quality. It often took ﬁrst

,prizc overseas, but it was competing

with the same kind of butler from other countries.

When creamery butter came in in the '80's the export of dairy butter gradually fell off until it, ceased al- together. The trouble then was lack of refrigeration, and when it was available on boats sailing down the St. Lawrence exports increased quite rapidly, up until 1903, when 53,000,- 000,000 lbs, were exported, but home production increased rapidly and exports" fell off, although production continued, to incﬁcse- Then the war cams on. Consumption did not in-. crease but production did and there‘ wascozisiderable surplus to export. Now we are back again where we were before the war. Production is increasing_"rlght ‘_ along, but nothing ‘i to export. 1n. the case of cheese, experts have been more regular. We have been exporting ever sine‘ Confederation. Exports increased gradually until i904 since when they have ranch off, owing to decrease in production, we are still exporting to_a great many countriespdb in all. These in- eludes the Orient, and the West m- dies in both of_which the trade is growing. In respect of the latter, facilities for shipment are excellent froinlialifax and St. John and even Montreal. ‘ Preferential ‘treatment has helped. at one time it a»... impossible to ship butter to either, but with re- frigeration the ships can take butter in ordinary. solids or even in prints. Dr. Riicldick observed that there have been some odd things about the

are certain types of cheese, which a few people‘ iike-‘Camembert, Roquc- fort,’ pnd Gorgonzola, butter demand is not large enough for Canadian factories to ‘undertake manufacture. We import butter from Syria-a butter made from Mclledfat-and from the Fijian fslapds. We import milk and cream from Alaska“, Dr. Ruddick thinks for consumption in the Yukon. We have imported but- ter and cheese for 40 years in small quantities, until during the years 1813-14. In recent years, since the war, we are importing more than‘ ever. The time will come, it was‘ thgught, when Canada would again

export but the increase of home, consumption makes it hard to prel dict. . . . ' "The dairy produce trade," Dr.

Ruddick went on to say, "is an in- ‘ ternatiohal one. Butter and cheese are shipped from all over the world everywhere, and .it is complicated by the fact that the southern hemis- phere l.s the greatest producer of butter and cheese, because they have a small population in consume it at home. We produce far more mill: in this country than New Zealand does. Yet New Zealand today is the largest exporter of dairy products in the world. They export 80 per cent of their total pg-QHUOQ while we ex- port i3 per cent."

This important statement is so to speak, underlined: "It is Just as well to remember this fact, however that if we do, we will have to take re- latively less than we have been Iti- ung for our butter in times past.

world's market price" which agrees with Adam Smith's dictum that the home market is worth double that of the foreign market.

Then at the request of the com- mittee, Dr. Ruddlck went into a long explanation of condidons in New Zeuland governing dairy production. Seasom are long, but wet, and there is d. deficiency of pasture such as we have and mainly artiﬁcial at ihatq ‘Land suitable for dairying is limits-ii and very high in price, averaginj from $300 to $400 an acre, but rang- ing as high as $750. In addition to that the unionized labor used on ldairy farms is much higher. Much of the milk used in maklng cheese and butter has to be pasteurlzcd i0 89¢ rid of certain flavors. As a. conse- quence “taking the actual money paid for cheese and butterthe Canad- ian cheese and milk producers get 14.5 cents more out of every dollar's worth of cheese sold in London than the New Zealand farmers do. In the case of butter it is not so large. It was only about three andg a fraction." As a general conclusion Canadian producers never need io have fee": of New Zealand competi- tion, especially if they keep up the present high quality.

The average production of cows whose milk is sent to the cheese factories is about 4000 lbs. a year, and last year the_farmer got aboutl 2C cents a pound for the etaoincta 20 cents a pound for his cheese. Here Dr. Ruddick again affirmed his position ‘that the price of cheese ‘fixed the price of butter-ME abso- lutely, but has a bearing on it. “If the Ptice of cheese," he said "were five cents a pound cheaper the price of butter would be five cents a pound lower than it is." Cheese went up to 22 cents which meant that at ‘that price farmers made more money than by selling milk at market value $1.75 per hundred Pounds. As to the opinion of some people that it was an unfortunate thing that we are ex- porting so many cows to the U. S. It WES another source of revenue. It

was an easy matter to keeping up '

herds. With a large surplus of cows tn export we would simply raise up the calves. which are now killed al- most as soon as they are dropped. He did not think good dairy herds were diminishing. Pointing to a table of prices for the last two years in Mon- treal, showing the premiums which ran from one to ten cents a pound. he said That is the premium you are rece g for butter in Canada. over the export value." -Then the éommittec discussed the quality of cheese sold by the average grocer, \ which was admittedly poor, but the gist of Dr. RuddicliKs views as to that was given in a former installment.
