A very comprehensive presentation of

ted States Department of Agriculture in it
MAY report, shows that the value of ou'
focks is greater by s42 900, 900 than 1870
and the value per head greater than since
1855. From these facts ii appears that the
domestic supply of wool il six times a
great as in 1870, and that both domestic
and foreign suppiies were onl,
three pounds to each inlabtant, while the,
are now six and half pounds. Then,
including imports of woolens, scarcely foul
pounds per head were used. whereas We
now require over eight pounds. |, appear
that three -iifths of all the wool used for al
purposes is of domestic production. whilt
four-ffths of the requirement is manufaet
ured in this country, leaving only one-fftt
to come in the shape of imported goods
For three decades the value per head Of
imports of woolens has been regularly de
cliniug. and is now only about three-fonrth'
of dollar per anuum for each individual
when in 1850 1850 it was considerably more
than 4 dollar.
