CORRESPONDENCE.
[Correspondence on public matters is wolcomed at all times, but it must bo distinctly understood that this journal is in no way associated with tho opinions of its correspondent!).] THE PRICE OF MEAT. [To the Editor.] Sir,—l should like to ask through your valuable paper how much longer a long-suffering and gullable public are going to allow themselves to be bossed and charged exorbitant rates for their meat, and at the same time pay cash. One has only to look at the prices paid for fat stock to see that tho butchers are making 300 per cent profit. No doubt tliov are laughing at us, but surely some one will start a co-operative butchery to bring them when too lato to ilicir senses. —I am, etc., “A FATHER OF A FAMILY.”
