~ 1t is stated that tho aggregate
losses of Irish landlords by reason Of
tho decisions OF eases under the new
land act for Ireland, will reach the
large figures of one hundred million
dollars II year. This seems incredible
but it is apparently based on reliable
statistics. Such a sum of money taken
from the Irish landlords, by reducing
their rents, indicates the extortion which
must have been practiced when the
rents were at the former figure.

Our wool growers are not so dis
heartened as many here suppose.
Though having a hard winter their
losses are lower by 70 per cent.
They are assured of an average
clip and the increasing demand for
woel gives them courage and hope
and may terminate In more of q
financial success than they ex-
pected. Their success, financially,
depends to some extent on the per-
sou to whom the wool is shipped.
