Excerpt from Britain's Future Corn Supply: Foreign or Canadian?
I propose for the present to consider chie¿y the item of corn supply and its principal sources, and whether there be no alternative for the United Kingdom, but to continue to pay gold to strangers for her bread-stuffs, in excess of her immense exports of manufactured articles. Protectionist writers on the American side often attribute the unfavourable balance of British trade to the supposed decline of English supremacy in manufactures whereas it actually results from the enormously increasing consumption of food and raw mate rial of foreign growth.
