G TEBMANENT AND TEMPORAP.Y PASTURES. 



marketable coninifKlities, sucli as butter, cheese, and ccindensed 

 milk, will prove of esj)oeial service in those districts that are too 

 remote from jjopuloiis centres to enable the milk trade to be 

 carried on at all times Avith ])rofit. 



lieef and mutlnn can be more cheai)ly fatted, and milk more 

 cheaply ])roduced, on a farm r.fAvhirh ono-halfor two-lliirds is in 

 grass than on arable land alone. It may not be possible to fatten 

 so many beasts or sheep per acre as Avhen stall-fed on arable 

 produce ; but the point now under consideration is farming at a 

 profit, and I l)elieve that one of the most potent factors in the 

 increase of pastures during the next decade will be this focilily of 

 producing meat and milk with advantage to the grazier as well as 

 to the consumer.
