MAURY'S SHEEP
ARE VALUABLE
BRING APPROXIMATELY $4,000
TO THE COUNTY AN
NUALLY.
INDUSTRY SHOWS A NICE GAIN
And More And Better Sheep
Are Raised Each.
Year.

/ The wool market opening up in
the East at 1Sc and zoe for free of
/ burrs, is to a certain extent discour-
aging to the sheep and wool growers
Of the South, but the high price of
lambs will in a great measure even up
matters.
The wool output of Maury county is
growing in quantity each year, which
is Of course due to the increase of the
sheep industry. In 1906 there was
handled in Maury county 10000
pounds of wool. at an average price
of 26 cents per pound, total output
in dollars and cents of S15,600. This
was for free of burrs.
In 1907 the yield increased to $4,000
pounds or more The market opened
at 22@23c, and went as high as 25c
during the season, but the average
price for free of burrs was "a cents.
Making the wool crop worth $4,000,
or a net profit to the growers of about
$17,2SO
For 1908 with the heavy increase in
the amount of sheep raised in the
county, which is 25 per cent greater
than that of 1907 the wool crop is
estimated at 100000 pounds. The
market has opened in the East at 18c
mi
that the price may go even lower,
makes the crop not as valuable as for
the former years, but even at 20 cents
the figures will reach $4,000 It is
almost certain that the market will
hardly go under 16c@17c on the local
Columbia market, which price if sus- i
tanned throughout the season will |
make the crop worth more to the !
grower than the crop of 1907. Place
the output at 100000 and the prevail !
ing price at 1914 cents and there will !,
be clear profit to the sheep raisers
Of $16,5OO, which is a greater amount
of money for the farmers than was
laid to them either of the former two
years, as the commission mans profit
must be taken from the figures in
each of the former years.
There are many reasons why the
wool market will be lower this year
han for several years past. First
ind greatest of the reasons is that [
he money stringency has prevented '
he manufacturers from disposing of I
heir manufactured products and in {
many instances from making up the {
aw material. Secondly, always pre- I
eding a presidential election, prices t
n wool go lower from the fact the e
nils and users of the raw material a
re governed by the tariff, and there S
; never a reaction in the price until S
fter the result of the election Is
nown. Il
Still with the increase price on t
lmbs and the enormous quantity in n
lie county the sheep industry to il
Taury county will bring a revenue to |,
lie raisers of more than $4,000. The o
tipping season will be on within the
ext ten days or two weeks and the
cal dealers are making preparations q,
handle the business rapidly. N
