Important Industry.

The sheep industry has been and is
now one of the most important in
the United States and it has con-
tributed more TO the development

United States department of agri
culture or from our agricultural
colleges, or from the commercial

Statistics Are Given.

The United States imports from Brazil,
Cuba, British East India, Japan, China,
Switzerland Mexico Colombia, Venezuela
and Egypt goods representing higher
value than the value of the goods the
United States ships 10 these countries.
Imports from these countries TO the Unit
ed States during the fiscal year OF 1913
were valued at $64O 622. 49, and the Unit
ed States sent TO these countries com
modltes valued at s27759l. COG The Unit
ed States received from the Philippine
islands imports valued at s2l.ol0,2lS. and
sent to the Philippines a valuation OF
commodities OF S25.360.6i6, representing
a balance in favor OF the United States
OF Si.350. 39S
A vital item in Mr.. Pitts statistics is
revealed when II is considered that there
were Imports to the value OF S15l, ,i0l,9S

ON WOOL INDUSTRY
Information Is Furnished by

DUTY OF GOVERNMENT
1t Is Urged That Department
of Agriculture Should
Gather Statistics.

Plea for more attention 10 the WOO
industry from the United States do
partment of agriculture on the gronnt
that no accurate method has been dc
Yised for finding what the wool chI
fcally is. is made by DR.. $. w. Mcclure
secretary of the National Woolgrow
ers association. Or. Mcclure declares
that the wool industry is ono of the
most important in the west and he as
serts that it is not receiving the sup
port it merits either from the depart
ment of agriculture or agricultural col
leges. Discussing this matter yester
day, he said:
One of the things that has ia
vorably affected the price Of wool
in the last two months is the ap-
pearance of the actual shortage
that existed not only in the United
States clip, but also in the world S
wool clip last year. Those inter
ested in handling wool and using
it in the eastern markets of this
country have used every effort to
belittle the talk of wool shortage
in the 1913 clip. The national as
sociation of wool manufacturers
gives an estimate of the years
product on December 81 of each
year. AT the close of 1912 they
estimateE that the clip of the
United States amounted to 304,-
100000 pounds. They now esti-
mate the clip of 1913 amounted to
296, 100000 pounds, or decline Of
hnf ho
eastern trade papers have taken the
position that the 1918 clip was prac-
tically as large as that of 1912.
Estimate of the Clip.
Last August the National Wool
growers association mado an esti-
mate that the 1913 clip would be
at least 25,000,000 pounds below the
clip of the preceding year. Devel-
opments of the last month show
that this estimate of 2S0,000,000
pounds is the nearest correct of
any made. Unfortunately for the
wool industry no accurate method
has been devised for showing what
the wool clip is and up TO the pres
ent time this estimate has been
left entirely in the hands of wool
dealers and manufacturers who have
twisted it around to suit the i'm
mediate needs of the market. The
United States department of agri.
culture estimates the production of
all other crops of importance eX-
cept the wool crop. As our wool
crop last year brought S56,000,000,
il is worthy of some attention on
the part of the department of ag-
riculture. 1t is the hope of tho
woolgrowers that this department
will take the matter of reporting
our wool production in hand so that
woolgrowers NAV have accurate
information from unprejudiced
sources.
