WooL.-The editor os The Wool Groirsr
assumes it as fair calculation to estimate
the consumption of wool in the United States
equal to six pounds per head of all the in
habitants. This gives $50 100000 pounds
as the necessary supply for home consunp-
ton every iota Of which ought TO be produced
upon our uwn soil But we have statistical iacts
TO show that half of that amount is
manufactured in this country, and part OF that
IS made up Of imported wool. 1t is cslculat-
ed that the annual increase Of population
would require an annual increase Of six mil
lions Of sheep, instead Of two millions as at
present.
This brought forward as an argument, BY
the opponents of home industry and home
interests, in favor OF taking off all import
duty upon wool, because the country docs
not supply enough for hcTe consumption
This is the very course to prevent farmers
from embarking in the business OF wool
growing. 1t is dishonest argument, and is
upon a Per with the whole business Of
"speculat'ng in Wool" Of which The Wool
Crooer says;
Gas class, if we may Judge by those who
are the most unscrupuiuus aud dishonest of
any with whom the farmers have to deal
They stand at no falsehaod that will enable
them to deceive the wool grower and get his
clip at a reduced rate, no matter how much
below it's real value. And they boast of the
facility with which they can gull them. And
if selling an article for what it is not be dis
honest, then they are equally guilty OF gross
| frauds upon the community in the sale CT
goods. But in that they are sustained by the
farmers, who must not complain. As long az
people will buy cheap cloth, SO long will
they make it, even if they have 10 use rnshes
/ for wrap and hoop.poles for filling. When
! people stop consuming rag-cloth, and all o.
{ ther adulterations, and only go for genuine
/ article, for which they are willing to pay
/ fair price, then we shall have good cloth a.
! gain-not before.
81 hope farmers will look little to their
own interest, and not allow themselves to be
yoked to the car Of politicians, and hawed
and geed about as we drive our oxen, ana
| a,ways made to draw them along without any
proyender. 70 be sure, We get nicely currled
| down about election time, but that's all we
! do get; good patient sous as we are"
1t is pity they we're not literally curried
down after being feeced, until they had /.
little common sense raked into them, until
they would look little more to tiieir own in
terest, instead Of yoking themselves to the
car of any politician, who was only anxious
get their hide and tallow"
If politicians would quit the wool business
both black aud white, it would be better Tor
the chsep.
