Wool.

II is often easier and always safer TO
ask hard questions than to answer them.
What should be and what is likely to
be the ruling price on the domestic wool
clip of1872H 1t would relieve us very
greatly il some reader OF the Farmer
would give US a correct rely to that
nowadays much.asked question. We
shall not attempt to fix the figures at
this time, but merely to call attention
to some OF the elements involved 10 the
! calculation.
|. There is an admitted scarcity in
all grades Of wool. the world over
The wooden machinery now in exist
ence cannot be kept employed for the
next twelve months on the wool alone
which will find its way to the market.
Besides the demands OF the human
family for wooden fabrics during the
same time will. probably, be in excess
of any possible supply
2. This condition OF things must have
for first result to bring manufacturers
into lively competition for the raw ma.
terial, and hence to establish the price
at as high figure as the prospective
market for woolen fabrics may seem TO
warrant.
3. 1t being now certain that wool
will be scarce and dear. the energies
and means and skill OF manufacturers
are already turned upon the question
of substitutes for the pure fibre Shod.
dy and cotton are receiving full share
OF attention, and. as appearances now
indicate, will go largely into the COM
position OF fabrics manufactured by
many mills which heretofore used only
wool. As We write. there is scarcely a
three days supply of wool in the mar
kets Of Boston, New York and Phila-
delphia for the New England woolen
mills alone; yet theY are mostly run
ming, and not many Of their spindles
will stop for lack OF material. They
are simply adapting their policy to the
necessities OF the case, and if wool were
five dollars per pound, they would still
continue to throw off the usual number
of yards Of cloth every twenty.four
hours, using cheaper substitutes in
order to be able to place their fabrics
upon the markets at saleable rates.
While, therefore, it seems almost
certain that the clip OF 1872 will fud a
sale at very high figures and that pure
wooden goods will be correspondingly
high, yet there is little reason to ap-
prehend a famine or panic in either.
All OF us, except those who are the
happy possessors of large flocks OF
sheep, may have to wear shoddy or
"shodden gray an a that" for the
coming two or three years; but it is
some consolation TO know that our
temporary loss is the countrys perma-
nent gain. The wool industry is re.
ceiying deserved encouragement, and
is at last emerging from the difficulty
and almost despair which has surround
ed that all important agricultural inter>
est for the past four years.-PTdiri'

CONGRESSIONAL.
WASHINGTON. April /.
SENATE.

Several petitions were presented and
referred to the Judiciary Committee,
asking for the exclusion from Federal
offices OF all persons indulging in intoxl'
eating liquors.
The annual postoffice bill was re-
ported from the Postoffice Committee.
Recommitted.
Mr.. Boreman. from the Committee
on Claims, reported bill to pay James
Segar SIS, 900 for the rent Of his prop
erty near Fortress Monroe.
The House joint resolution to
erect q colossal statute to the late Ad-
miral Farragut was passed.
Mr.. Cole called up the bill TO snbsi.
sidize line of mail steamers from
San Francisco to Australia, but the Sen
ate refused to proceed with it,
Mr.. Schurz introduced bill 10 pro-
vide for public buildings at Jefferson,
Missouri. Referred 10 the Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds.
Monday next was set apart for the
consideration OF the business from the
Committee on Claims.
4 resolution was adopted calling on
the Secretary of War for statement "a
to the adoption OF the eight hour law
at the Springfield and Rock Island
armories; as 10 the amount OF labor
performed, the expense of making and
repairing arms, apd the general work
ings Of the establishment as com pared
with the ten hour system.
The Indian appropriation bill was
then taken up.
Mr.. Cole explained the bill. lie said
the committee had gone carefully
through it as it came from the House,
and had reduced the aggregate amount
appropriated to $l4l $50 so that if no
amendments were made adding appro~
priations the entire sum required by the
bill would be about $5,775,000. Most
of the appropriations were called for by
the stipulations o. treaties with the
Indians made long ago, and many Of
which could not be defended. The
policy OF the Government now seemed
to be 10 make no more treaties
with the Indians. fact upon which
the country was to be congratulated.
He said the Sioux Indians were to
receive nearly half Of the amount
appropriated and the Apaches also
were to receive a large sum. 1t was
claimed that these large appropriations
were necessary in order to keep these
Indians from making war, but he
thought in many cases they could be
more cheaply, wisely and efectually
dealt with by the military arm Of the
Government. He hoped the day would
soon come when Indians would be
regarded as citizens and would receive
neither more nor less bounty or rrotec-
ton than other citizens.
The bill, which covers seventy-one
pages, was read through, and the vari.
ous amendments reported by the Com
mittee on Appropriations were acted on.
Mr.. Harlan, from the Committee on
Indian Affair., submitted sundry
amendments, making some further ap-
propriations, which were generally CON
Cured in
Mr.. kellogg called up the bill re.
lating TO private land claims in Ala
bama, Louisiana and Florida. which
was passed, and the Senate then went
into executive session, after which It
adjourned.

THERE ia great COMPLAINT among {

THERE is great complaint among our
farmers as to the scarcity Of feed for
stock. In fact many farmers say that
their stock is suffering for feed and that
they are unable to get it any place.
The prolonged winter has stayed the
growth of grass. and the cattle that
might have otherwise picked up come
thing in the fields, have had TO live
entirely from artificial food provided BY
the farmers. This is the case in almost
every part OF the country. The prayer
is for spring sun to warm the ground
into life.-GarksJurg Paper.
