- HE sheep and wool industry OF
Utah brought into the Beehive
state approximately 20 per cent
more cold cash this year fol
the growers TO spend than It did dur
ing what was thought TO be the very
prosperous year of 1905,
From first to last the sheepmen had
things their own way There were
no bad storms to decimate the fiocks;
owing to the stringent laws and the
attendant compulsory dipping all fiocks
have been remarkably free from dis
case; the wool buyers fought fiercely
in the spring TO secure prospective
clips, and the prices Of wool and NUT
ton have ranged exceptionally high
throughout the year.
The year 1906 saw lambs sell In the
Chicago market as high as IS per 100
pounds. This year Utah wool brought
as high as 22is cents a pound with none
going below IS cents.
But for the fact there has been a
prevalent shortage In cars, the export
Of mutton from Utah to the markets
OF the east and Los Angeles would
have eclipsed all previous records. AS
It is. II will possibly be. by the end of
the year, fully two per cent In excess
of the shipments of last year.
The actual tonnage Of wool shipped
out OF the State of Utah during the
current year TO Boston and other east
ern markets was l1,7s6,Oo0 pounds, Fig
uring this total at an average basis Of
20 cents pound paid TO Utah sheep
men for the fleeces the grand total Of
$685., 200 is reached.
In round figures the sheepmen Of this
state this year have received In cash
for their wool and mutton exported
combined the sum Of s5,500,0O0.
The outlook for the wool grower for
the coming year Is equally as good.
This statement IL made In the face Of
the fact that as far as is known not
single pound of wool has been con-
traoted for. At this time last year
fully 50 per cent Of the coming spring
crop had been contracted for. Prices,
however, are still ranging high.
The SPECTATORS who bought on con-
tracts last season are still holding their
wool and only dealing 1t out as the
manufacturers call for 1t. Sitter prices
now prevail for sheep than have ex~
listed for years while quite lot Of
stun has been held over In feed lots,
owing to the shortage OF cars and tho
consequent delay In shipments How
ever, the high price OF wool makes the
growers 10th to trim their fioeks.

new equipment OF tho most approved

the situation for the good and SUM-
cient reason that az fast as the new

be seen from this that there has been
no marked Increase In the number OF

has contributed TO this condition of af-

Coast cities on the west and south
west OF Utah and also on the northwest
are becoming increasingly dependent
upon Utah for fat stuff, and every fin

likely to be needed for local consump-

to. AS to prices, before the first OF
April they were at values OF N.bO

than the same cattle would have sold

According to local stockmen, and

make up the cause for a fewer number
Of cattle being shipped out Of the State
of Utah in 1906 than In former years
But this state Of affairs is nothing to
shed tears over. At least so say stock
men who are posted.
The failure TO ship the usual number
out of the state Is likely to prove more
of blessing than a misfortune. The
fact that the cattle have been kept at
home means the Increased feeding Of
pulp, grain and hay. and will mean

THE SHEEP INCREASE,

There has been a big increase In the
states ilocks over the number in the
field last year. This years locks have
probably contributed in the neighbour
hood OF 100000 mutton sheep Of all sorts
to the market centers Of the country.
Aside from the lightness OF the lamb
crop the season of 1906, to iiockmasters,
has been one OF extraord nary profit
and they are congratulating themselves
upon the good showing made.
The Oldest "biddy" has been saleable
at any time during the present year at
not less than 50, while the breeding
sorts in desirable bands have been COM
handing prices at from 81 for fair to
the top price OF s.. 80 for the fancy. And
these figures are well maintained UP
to the present time.
Fortunate spectators, through early
contracting, bought the bulk OF Utah
yearling wethers at from 2.75 III 10
1926 per head. and the same thrifty
purchasers tied up most OF the two
year-olds at figures running under
