with prediction that Illinois will have
suffrage within five years. Miss Grim

ut took 150 janitors to clean up after
204 legislators, said Miss Grim in
referring to the Illinois Legislature in
Springfield. "They must be a dirty
crowd down there. There were also
SO policemen, understand, at the last
session. l thought possibly they were
there to stop the steals which are
being put through the Legislature, but
if they were they didn't do very good
job"
The tariff Miss Grim referred to as
a "man-made tariff" but she praised
the men, in some degree. for being able
to ''take their medicine after having
made the tariff" President Taft does
not occupy much of Miss Grim's mind.

speech in Washington some months
ago.
Out of 100 university professors in
Chicago to whom she sent letters, Miss
Grim said So replied telling of their be-

MUTTON IS LOW;
SHEEPMEN BLUE
Ranges Are Poor, Prices Are
Down and Owners Are In
a Quandary

Salt Lake Tribune Nov. 30: With the
price Of mutton low. the ranges the
poorest in the last fifteen years, and
prospects for hard Winter, sheepmen
OF Utah, Idaho, Wyoming aud Mon
tana are facing probably the most
serious set Of questions in history. Un-
able to get hay in many parts of the
State. herds are being taken to other
districts for feeding during the Winte
months and the sheepmen are trying to
cut the herds down to the smallest size.
1t is said by e. H. Callister, President
Of the Utah Woolgrowers' Association
that the herds in Utah have been cut
down nearly one.third already this Fall
and the sheepmen are getting rid of as
many OF the sheep as possible by selling
to the Eastern markets and to other
sheepmen. who are willing to face the
bad conditions during the Winter.
The manner of cutting down the
fiocks is by selecting the wethers and
all sheep which are aged and not sturdy
The hardy sheep are being kept. be-
cause they are better able to face the
conditions and live on sagebrush and
other poor foods. The other sheep are
going to the market as rapidly as
possible, with the result that big drops
in the price of mutton are expected in
the near future.

Furs Going Out of Fashion

That the wearing of furs has gone out
of fashion is given by William J. Err

mercial Company at Seattle as the
reason for the astounding fall in prices
Of raw furs which affects all classes of
skins, from sea otter to muskrat, ermine
being the only important one that did
not fall in price. Alaska produces
three.fourths of the worlds expensive
furs. but the price is fixed in London.

ket, but was obliged to sell at half OF
last years prices, which ranged from
$iO0 to $500 skin. Muskrat skins, used
in oounterfeiting seal skins. have fallen
30 per cent, because seal skins are less
fashionable and limitations, consequent.
ly, less in demand.

Demand IL Light

Some sheepmen say they are unable
to sell their mutton on the markets, be-
cause of the great supply and the limit
ed demand. The rush Of the sheep to
the market has been no greater from
Utah than from other adjoining States
aud the result is that it is now hard to
sell mutton at anything like fair prices.
1t is predicted by sheepmen that the
conditions will mean a shortage of wool
next Spring and much better prices.
With the number of western sheep cut
down one.third there will be millions of
pounds less wool produced and prices
should be better.
The ranges are poor this year because
Of the drought of last Summer and
the early Fall. The Late Summer and
early Fall rains usually bring forth a
good growth of grass on the ranges, but
this year the rains failed to come and
the sheepmen find no grass on the
Winter ranges. 1t will be necessary to
feed the sheep hay and grain, aud the
prices of both these commodities are
said to be going up. Hay In many parts
Of the State cannot be secured at any
price.
All around, the sheepmen declare the
conditions at present to be worse than
for many years back.
