Planters this Section of the country would do well to Dial*} exertions to raise a meat crop, during the present year, if the following from a pork backiug firm in Si. Louis &ftf be relied on: Evidence daily accumulates; going to show that the present year the South will demand and consume double the quantity of provisions tlidi she did last year* I" view of this fact, what is the condition of the trade in the hog product of lhe West at at this time ? The South is consuming meat of tin* new crop, while the old stock was consumed long before new cured could be got forward This is unusual! for the season, and is of great importance. In the face of this fact we have the evidence that there is at least an even chance for a small crop of hogs to give ns the meat for the coming wants. Could we come up to hist year’s crop we should then be deficit#*, for that only met the necessities, wicli were cramped by tire tack of means' to pdy. Now; with increased facilities for payment, and a con sumption so f;ir of the new crop astonishing and unusual, and yet legitimate, as we have before this remarked, the ‘hog product’ is to be snort tins year in any event that can now occur, Some writers arc discantiiYg up on the fact llrut the present high prices are checking the exportations. To oifr niind this is of l‘ittie concern; for, lroin present appearances, West Wist lidve no provis ions to'send out of the country* fho home cd’nsumpticn will be as much as we ia i meet , s aud nYay not be able to eveu do that; if the hogs do not come forward in larget s'Upfdy than 1 they ha'vu th'u’st laV, an that a majority predict that they tv N' i. Re lative to high prices; wcjstate,* without fear of doMScthn, that he who buys hogs at gr6'ss, alnd {fells the product at the pre s'ent iha'rkdt Yates- loses money on every hog slaughtered. One thing is palpable, either hogs must come down in price or the pro duct must go higher thA'A' vny price we have yet seen. It is estimated that at the prc&rit time the stock of lard is only about half, and that of pork only about one-quarter of the stock of last year at Chi cago, and' othej points also sbbrt. Vfttert iW all this trash about reducing- the armyf Away with it. ioes this look like a reduction? $300,000 for recruiting this year to SIOO,OOO on the same account last; $500,000 for clothing comm nation this year to $290,000 last ; $5500,000 for horses and • nifilfes to last year’s $5,000,000 ; in excess; arid finally, $43,195,500 total, called for this year against $33,0^2^093^^81 —u*ri inciease of $10,113,407.
