Wool Raising.

SPEAKING of the capacity of this
country for the economical production
of wool in the face of which we are
large importers, the New York l,,di-
Gator says:
8 England and Wales contain IS, 800
square miles, Ireland 1854, and Scot
land 80, 685; total 120,879 square miles.
The State of Texas contains PA, 356
square miles, and yet Great Britain and
Ireland produce as much marketable
wool as the whole of the United States.
With a practically unlimited area, any
part of which is available for sheep
growing, we yet are large importers Of
foreign wool, over IS. 900, 900 of pounds
having been imported during the last
year as against about 35,000,OO0 the
year previous, notwithstanding that
there is heavy import duty. In view
of these facts, it is not a little surpris-
ing that capital does not seem to flow
In the direction of wool growing. The
production of wool seems to be very
important factor in national independ-
ence; and in other countries, partlcu-
larly in Great Britain, considered an
essential part of nearly every farmers
business. The risks in sheep farming
are few in immense tracts of this coun-
try, and the business is attractive from
its comparative freedom from the ex-
cessive toll and anxiety consequent
upon other agricultural pursuits. There
is q good opening in this direction -
