Therefore the farmer has practically no protection at all. and whatever benefit he derives is from what the iome market furnishes for home products. Unfortunately for the farmer. the market price of wheat is fixed by the price which the surplus will bring abroad. or the price of wheat in London or Liverpool. At that market. where the surplus is sold. and which fixes the value of the whole crop. he comes in competition with the grain produced in the Crimea. in Hungary. and in the region of the Baltic. from fields cultivated by what is known. in comparison to our.own. as pauper labor. But I am told we must so legislate as to furnish a home market for all our agricultural products. and this can only be done by high tariff. Any one examining the subject will see that our agricultural products increase more rapidly than our population. so that if we do not export theseproducts in their natural condition we must do so by converting them into manufactured articles. and export these articles.
