WOOL AND HIDES,

The production of wool In the United States
has largely increased of late years, and Is now
much mole than the total consumption o. the
country few years ago, still we import g. con on
siderable quantity. MIR James Lynch. in his
annual review estimates the production OF the
United States in 1882 at SOO,00000l pounds OF
wool of ali kinds. against 900, 600 OOJ POUNDS IN
1881 The imports in 1882 were q, 1851, 4Ol pounds
against 81, 900 Isl pounds in 1851. Mr.. Lynch
comments upon the trade as follows: Inc
wool trade of 1882 was satisfactory to American
producers but to importers and dealers IL was
quite the reverse. A year since hne domesuc
higher than the same qualities are now.
Prices the greater part OF the year,
were weak; little variation took place e1
cept about shearing time. when the hrmness OF
advance. The rise was not long maintained, as
operators found to their cost The mills were
well employed and manufacturers OF superior
goods were quite successful; middle classes ulu
fatty, but inferior styles were proftless to tle
makers Wool growing continues to make rapid
progress In the western. states and territories,
save California. The clip of 1883 is hkely 10
show large increase over that OF lsS@; the Wooi
is almost entirely of the merlno bloon, lmine;
diate or remote and embraces all qualities and
conditions. The quantity of carpet wool grown
is quite small and ere long likely to entirely run
out. The population of the United states mas
been increased nearly 2COO,O.O by Immigration
since the census was taken. The country, as I
whole, is in a most prosperous conditi n, ano
there is every reason to hope for a successful
