DEPRESSION IN THE WOOL MARKET.

1t is becoming more and more evident,
that the crisis through which the wool
growing industry is passing is no ordinary
speculative fiuctuation in prices, such as
may naturally be expected to occur in
any and all branches of business; and the
importance to the wool grower of compre
hending the situation as fully as possible,
can hardly be over-estimated. We have
been trying to make ourselves believe that
the depression would not last, that prices
would soon rise again to the old level, as
they have always done before. But the clip
of 1883 went on the market at from five to
seven cents per pound less than the clip of
1882, and the clip Of 1884 must be sold, if
sold at all, at still further reduction of
from four to six cents per pound, making
the entire reduction from the price of 1882
at least ten cents per pound-a margin that
ordinarily covers all the profit in the busi-
ness over a large portion of the country.
! The decline is a serious one, and forces in
quiry as to its cause and remedy, if any can
be found tor if this decline can not be re-
covered or compensated, it will be only a
little while until wool growing will consti-
tute very insignificant item among the ag-
ricultural industries OF the country. Such a
result would be great misfortune from an
economical point of view, but there seem tC
be those who already contemplate such a
possibility, and who are even now tying
to prepare the way for public sentiment
among flockmasters in that direction. Cor.

THE WOOL. GROWERS PROSPECT.

The wool growers OF America very natur-
ally look upon Australia as prominent
rival. He is disposed to think the produc-
tion of cheap wool is largely dependent up
on the extensive wool interests of that rival
country. and often wonders if something
will not occur in the near future to so
change the attitude of wool growing in
be looked for.
Present indications point to the fact that
the next three years may witness marked
changes in that wonderful wool-producing
land, when the power of its great sheep
kings may be shorn of its strength to such
an extent that they will not be able to
WELD the power of o-day.
Recent losses of millions of sheep by
drouth in Australia are far from indicating
cheap wool from that country. The losses
have been most serious, and have warned
The wool-grower that if he would continue
his avocation he must take steps to prevent
"A recurrence OF such an event. In doing
this it may reasonably be presumed that
considerable expense will necessarily be in
CURED, which will certainly not tend to
cheaper the price of wool, but rather bring
it back to a standard of value at which it
can be produced in America with profit.
The lands of Australia which are regard
ed as so admirably adapted to sheep raising
are rapidly being encroached upon by vast
herds OF cattle, horses and goats, which are
rapidly increasing and naturally drawing
the more timid sheep from the open graz
ing lands, requiring wool-growers to trans
form thousands OF square miles into graz
ing farms, which will have to be watered
by irrigation at an enormous eXpense-an-
other tendency toward an increase OF cost
in producing wool in that country, and a
consequent prospective increase in the mar
ket price.
As the land in that country becomes more
thickly settled and the demand tor home
consumption of wool increases, the ex-
port will necessarily decrease and the
price advance. There, as here, where the
land becomes valuable, the cost of pr0dac-
ing wool is necessarily increased. With the
loss OF grazing area, Increase IN population
and in the value of land. it may be expected
that wool exported from Australia will, in
a few years, be higher in price than at the
present time.
The consumption of wool has kept pace
with the rapidly increasing production of
this staple, and it cannot be expected that
the wool of the world will long be grown
upon free pastures. The time is approach
Rocky Mountain husbandman., 1884-08-21

ing when wool growing will nearly all be
done on pastures owned by the wool grow
ers. Heretofore too many have regarded
the sheep industry as an agricultural pau
per-" and have kicked and cutfed it about
as if it had no rights upon the green spots
of the farm. 1t could live on what would
starve and other department of the tarm,
consideration. Happily this idea Is becom-
ing extinct. the best results having been OBJ
tanned by tallng "pauper" industry into
the best parts OF the farm, and giving it a
front seat amOrg the good things produced.
And the sheep has given its reward tor this
consideration, every time. The time is not
distant when the days of piracy upon pub
lie domain will be numbered both in Amer
lca and Australia. and cultivated wool will
then bring a better price than the so-caled
"pauper' wool now brings.
Within the next ten years the United
States must produce four times as much
wool as is now grown in order to clothe her
own people. The production at present is
hardly half enough to clOthe 3O,OOO,OOO of
people, and judgi"g g from the past, another
decade will find the supply proportionately
in the same condition. II the wool produc-
ton Of Australia shall be curtailed. as it has
been indicated if may be, the American
wool grower, who has increased his flOCks
in the past and improved them; erected
buildings for their care; invested in lands,
appliances and machinery for the proper
production OF good crops OF wool and the
development OF every necessary adjunct to
wool growing, will yet achieve a triumph
III not only producing superior article OF
wool but will receive corresponding ben
eft in the price which shall be paid for the
results of his patient toll, earnest applica
ton and long years of waiting for recon-
pense to which he may be justly entitled
