SOUTHERN SHEEP INDUSTRY

This is u of the Southern III
dusrries that is rapidly growing ~
Importance, aud one TO which tins
section of country is admirably
adapted. The production of the
raw material for woolen manufac'
ture, even under the present diSac'
vantage OF having inadequate
home manufacturing facilities, is
paying III wool growers "A spleudld
margin. When this disadvantage
is removed, therefore, this industry
will doubtless soon become second
TO none ia the South, aud our Gull
Coast people will find in it Il pleas
ant and highly r~emunerative busl-
ness that will justly the investment
of much OF their surplus capital.
The following iromthe n. o. Times
Democrat will prove interesting on
this subject;
'"Ata time when we have but just forced
conviction uPon our Northsrn relatives,
and accepted their confession that the
South can make aud sell iron aud cotton
cloth cheaper than they can, it is only
proper that we shonld east about for other
departments of human effort in which TO
make it equally Interesting for them in
the way OF friendly and traternal compe-
tition. If, for instance, we eonld see our
way clear to the establishment of wooleI,
mills as sapidly in proportion as cotton
mills have sprung into existence, we
should not have to wait long before we
sent our cloth Goals to Newc istle,' aud
array ed the golden youth o fifth avenue
and Beacon Hill in tweeds and broadcloth
of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and
Texas manufacture. Some good work is
being done in this direction, aud more
will he, especially after the dog days
should they ever terminate.
The Baltimore Mdnafdctarerg' Record has
made some interesting investigations into
the status of the Southern sheep industry,
and in a late issue states, that Sin 1875
the South had $685. 800 sheep, out of a
total in the whole country of 80, 935, 300,
or only one-seventh. The South now
has l2.640,323, out of a total Of d0,360, 243,
or one-fourth of the total number This
is a flattering exhibit and one to which
every means should be taken to call the
attention of the world. Like nearly all
of our raw products, which until lately
were sent away from home to be manu-
featured, the greater pant of the wool
gathered from our twelve and "a half mil
lion sheep no doubt finds its way to the
cloth and carpet mills of the North and
East. Such a primitive commerce should
aud can be improved. All the vital CON
ditions that give MS ability TO compete in
the cotton spinning industry apply with
equal force to the WOODEN interest. In
each ease the long days, %cheapness of
living and small expense for fuel and
raiment give the Southern manufacturer
an advantage. The other md great ad-
vantage of proximity to raw material,
praduced at a cost less than anywhere
else in the United States, will be also
fouud t. lie with the Southern weaver.
