Wool Growers should Consider,

While North Dakota wool growers
have Jared moderately we'll this year,
and while their clip has brought them
fair prices, it must be remembered that
their ability to raise wool al a profit is
due to the fact that they have a free
range. free grass, are taxed upon a light
valuation, and are in other ways favored
of a mild expense list. But in other
states further east, where lands are high.
values much greater than here and ex-
penses altogether heavier, the wool in
dustry has received a heavy blow, and
has in many cases become almost a dead
letter.
All of the wool which has been shipped
to market has been received by buyers,
and of these Justice, Bateman & Co.,
n Of the largest wool buying
houses in the east, have issued a letter,
which should be pondered over by
farmers all over the land, as follows:
Free trade in wool has destroyed 1OO.-
100000 pounds of American wool since
Grover Cleveland began his crusade
against American sheep, and our manu-
facturers have been forced into the Lon
don market, as was predicted by protec-
Jionists. And as was also predicted.
when we we're at the mercy Of foreigners,
no longer producing an adequate wool
supply, they have put up the prices on
us, as you will see bv the London wool
auctions. The table showing the total
consumption Of wool for the past five
years shows a increased consumption
of wool by the American people which
has, two causes; the first is the increase
in population, and the second comes
from the reaction from the enforced
economy made necessary by the Cleve-
land panic of the previous year, when
the American people used less wool,
owing to the hard times, than for many
previous years. The net result of this
whole free wool business is that since
Grover Cleveland was inaugurated we
are producing 10O,OOO,OOO pounds less
wool than was produced under the last
year Of President Harrison. The figures
in millions of pounds are as follows:
Clip of 1890, 800, 0OO,G 600 pounds. used up in the
Zip of 1891. 2O7. 100000 pounds, used up in the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1892.
Clip of 1892, $50, COX, 600 pounds, used up in the
Clip ' Of 1885, sss' 81, SSse g p ase?, used up in the
is al year ending June 80, 1894.
Clip Of 1894, sSs, goo, GOO pounds, used up in the
nS SIP se Of a 1ss5, ST. 1905 ,o0e, sos 90 l poands, available for
use for the fiscal year ending June so, 1896.
So that If the American people con
sumo in the next fiscal year, ending June
30, 1896, the same quantity of wool that
they used in the fiscal year just closed,
American manufacturers will be COM
PEELED to import 268,OOO,O0O pounds of
wool, as against 203,000,000 pounds for
the year just closed, and as against only
5%5,000,000 pounds imported IN the year
ending June 80, 1894, the last fiscal year
under the Mckinley law. The foreigners
are supplying us with much more Of our
wool when we are needing more wool,
and prices, although advancing. are still
below what they were on September 1,
1894, when the Wilson, German law was
passed, and SO per cent. below what they
were on March 4, 1898, when General
Harrison left the White House.

Deafness Cam ct be Cured,
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness.
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed CON
ton Of the mucous lining Of the Eusta-
3chian Tube. When this tube is infamed
you have q rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the in.
famation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi-
tion Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured.by Halls Catarrh
