BRIEF MENTION

Snow has melted from the cross
which gives the Mount of the Holy
Cross its name. The Mount Of the
Holy Cross is In Colorado and the
now has melted on the cross for the
first time within the memory of the
oldest ~inhabitant. However, the out
lines Of the cross are discernible 20
miles distant.
The center of alien white popula-
ton in the United States moved west
erly for the first time in 80 years.
The new center is In Allen County,
Indiana, about 10 "a miles east of
New Haven and 16 miles east of Fort
Wayne. 1t is due to the increase In
fo~reign-born white population in Cal
ifornia, Texas and Arizona, according
to the Census Bureau.
The PARAGRAPH. Just invented by q
German, may be described as a dicta-
phone and telephone combined. Sit
ting at your desk you can, by using
this instrument, do business with any
person located elsewhere. The par
lograph, after being connected with
your telephone. gives a permanent
record of what is said and done. by
both parties to the transaction.

are advocated by a noted Partisan
stage beauty who is visiting Chicago.
"a woman's whole heart should be
put into every kiss she gives her hus-
band" she declared. "a kissable
woman will keep any normal man
anchored at home. Too many wives
think they al hold their husbands
through their stomachs. Scientific
love is more practicable than domes-
tic science"
1t will soon be possible for night
passengers to view the country
through which their train is passing.
Powerful food lights on the roof at
the e a of the observation car will
uniformly cover a radius of at least
100 degrees. with height and depth
sufficient to catch canyons and rivers,
mountains and lakes as the train
leaves them behind In its onward
rush through the darkness. 1t is
possible the lighting system may be
extended along the roofs Of all
coaches lengthwise SO that passen-
gers throughout the train will have
the benefit of the view on one
side or the other. Dynamos driven
by the axles Of modern Pullmans
generate more electricity than is re-
Quired for present purposes; hence
there would be no added expense for
current.

the vsrnacular. the wooden mills are
"eloser to the sleeps backs for
their wool supplies than for many
years, conditions are pointing more
steadily every day to another out
break Of speculative wool contract
ing for the 1898 wool clips OF the
west.
Recent dispatches ON the wool
market conditions at Boston r to
the effect that all eyes n turned on
the big wool auction now being held
in London. the wool market Of the
world, and the prediction is rife that
this auction is going to show In
creased prices which r expected to
be reflected In the Boston market.
Meanwhile as the clip of 1922,
held in Boston comes closer and
closer to complete utilization, those
with wool who have held back are
steadily but surely boosting the
prices for their holdings. Against q
top Of $1.25 per pound clean for fine
staple wool at Boston last May. top
quotation for this same grade OF wool
is now $1.42. with similar increases
in other grades Of wool.
The Texas and California 1922
Fall clips of wool have been eagerly
sought by wool dealers and mills and
at good stiff prices. A big California
pool of Fall clip wool was recently
sold. the top price being around thir-
ty-hve cents per pound. Because Of
shortness of staple or length Of the
wool fibre. the FAN clip. representing
onlyabout a six-month growth, Is not
as valuable as the full twelve months
clip, such as the Nevada clip repre-
sents. The latest news on the buying
of the Texas Fall clips IL to the effect
that prices exceeding forty : eight
cents and possibly reaching fifty
cents unoficially wer reported paid
there ON November IS. for 100000
pounds of Fall clip of four to six
months growth. purchased for Stud
ley and Emery, wool dealers of Bos-
ton, Mass. This is said to be the
highest price eve paid for Fall aeec-
es in that section. Another similar
clip Of 175,0O0 pounds is reported to
have brought forty-eight cents per
pound the previous Monday. Short
clip wool In Texas last Fall Is re-
ported to have averaged twenty-five
cents with q top Of twenty-five cents.
In commenting upon the extreme
possibility Of an era Of wool pecula-
ton for the near future, Boston dis
patches contain statements to the ef-
feet that western wool growers as a
class are well posted on the firm po-
sition of the wool market. For Ne
vada, the statement Is made that an
offer of thirty-seven cents per pound
for the well known John G. Taylor
clip has already been made, in an ef-
fort to pick up this choice and large
clip, but that the offer was refused.

SPECTATORS AGAIN WoRhnG WOOL CROP

Vernon Metcalf. Secretary Of the
Nevada Land and Livestock Associa-
ton, writing for the Reno Evening
Gazette. says:
Many people. including growers
and spectators. have gone broke try
ing to guess" the wool market. Ev-
cry year sees q renewal of the age-old
game Of the wool trader gambling
with the wool grower. The gamble"
comes in through the desire OF trad
ers to contract for wool clips months
in advance Of the time the wool is
shorn, taking the chance, on the bas-
is Of their usually thorough study Of
all conditions upon which wool prices
will be based by the time they must
take the wool from the grower, that
there will be sufficiently increased
prices to fully justify their gamble.
Contract 1t low and sell It high"
Is the wool traders motto. Many
growers, on the basis of such infor-
nation as they can secure upon which
to guess" the market, also like to
gamble ON the market by contracting
their clips months in advance Of the
actual shearing of the wool. Oc-
casionally the traders guess wrong;
usually the grower does the poor
guessing. Sometimes, as occurred In
1920, worldwide conditions are so
complicated and 30 poorly guessed"
that traders not only suffer great
losses but many are entirely closed
out of business. Year In and year
out, however. wool trading has been
a lucrative profession for those most
experienced and best informed. and
many fortunes have been built from
this profession; fortunes made large
ly by "outguessing" the growers in
the wool contracting gamble.
Following the break in the wool
market of 1890, when prices for
western woods went on from around
seventy cents per pound just as It
came from the Sleeps backs, to al
most nothing. over night, the year
1921 saw for Nevada woods. an aver
age price of about fourteen cents per
pound. Wool began to come back in
1922. owing to the consumption of
the big surplus wool stocks in the
country. additional dumping Of wool
into this country during the period
being prevented by the terms of the
emergency tariff act. and speculative
contracting went forward once more
The contracting of the 1922 Nevada
wool clip, not usually shorn until late
in April and May, commenced as ear
ly as December, 1921. AS an ak
ample Of the dificulty in guessing"
the wool market those Nevada grow
ers who fell" for early contracting
and in some cases, trying to outguess
the sp~eculator. contracted their 1922
for a. low as eighteen and twen-
ty cents per pound and later saw 9TH
growers who held on. sell their
clip for as high as forty cents per
pound, by shearing time.
This year 1t Is pretty definitely as
sured that with adequate tariff pro-
lection for wool continued high wool
prices In foreign markets. q reduced
world and national wool supply. rea-
sonably heavy resumption Of wool
consumption in our own country re-
