NEVADA Is INTERESTED

rhe droppdng of the bottom out of
the wool market in the United States
vitally affected an industry that is
by no means insignificant in the state
of Nevada. Vernon Metealf. secretary
of the Nevada Livestock Association.
has estimated that the average in
come of Nevada wool producers Is
FIVE Millions OF dollars. Such a figure
Is of course realized under conditions
of fair and high prices that have pre-
vailed the last few years and not
based on the present low prices Of
fered BY the dealers and traders in
wool. Accordingly. the sheep grow
ers of the state should take steps to
insure strong representation at the
meeting of wool producers and bank
ers to be held at Chicago the seven
teenth of this month to devise ways
and means of re.establishing the
market and giving financial aid to
the ranchers who are depending
wholly or largely upon Que returns
from the sheep and wool industry
for their livelihood.
One of the steps likely TO be taken
will be tho creation of a fund from
which loans may be made to pro-
ducers. This course has been sug-
gested by Governor Harding OF the
federal reserve board, who has point
ed out the success in market stimb
ulation In the interest of the cotton
growers in 1914 through the creation
of such loan fund. United States
senators from Montana, Nevada,
Wyoming. Utah, Nebraska and Wash
ington are active In their efforts To
make the Chicago meeting productive
of results that will be of benefit ito
the industry affected. Carson News.
