The real reason for the governor 5
action is as much mystery as when
he first acted. Many believe that he
plans war on the Ku klux Khan
which is very strong. But there has
been no official confirmation to date.
The governor is prone to quick de-
clSlons and to spectacular action, and
some of the more conservative citi-
Zens rather believe he is more in

BOSTON WOOL MARKET

The Boston wool market continues
very quiet, manufacturers still holding
off, though taking few bargain lots
at cut prices. Dealers are trying to
maintain values for best territory and
fleece woods, but find it difficult un-
der prevailing conditions. Some sales
are reported at a substantial loss.
Other sales have been made below the
recent market, though showing a small
profit for the seller. Practically Moth
ing is doing in the west or in Texas,
as the growers are not ready to ac-
cept what eastern buyers are willing
to pay. Domestic woods are arriving
slowly here, total receipts for the
year being considerably behind last
years figures. Arrivals of foreign
wools are small and decreasing, and
no particular increase is expected un-
til late in the year. The wool trade
is looking forward to the opening of
the next series of the London wool
sales, September A, to give an idea as
to real values and the probable course
of the world markets during the re-
mainder of the year. Unless condi-
tions greatly improve in this market.
American buyers are not likely to be
much of factor at either the coming
London wool sales or at the Australian
auctions which are scheduled to open
September 18 at Sydney.
Sales of mems wear lightweight
worsteds continue small, but there has
been good movement of the wo-
mems wear lines, and the wool trade
hopes that this will be sufficient to
keep the mills running at capacity,
and later bring normal demand for

LAMB AND MUTTON AS FOOD

"Earliest records, says C. G. Potts
in bulletin of the federal department
of agriculture, mention the use of the
flesh Of sheep for human food. The
extent of its use, however, has varied
at different times in different coun-
tries, and even in different sections of
the same country at the same time.
Thus, although the United States as
whole does not use mutton or lamb
extensively, large quantity is used
in a narrow section along the Atlantic
seaboard north of the Potomac river.
Figures compiled in the bureau of an
irnal industry indicate that during the
last five years only 81 per cent of
the. meat consumed in 1.-The United
States was mutton and lamb. The av-
erage yearly meat bill dressed meat
basis) of the american consumer dur
ing that period contains the following
items;
~Lalnb and mutton, 5.3 pounds; beef
and veal, 68.5 pounds; pork (excluding
lard), 67.2 pounds. Total annual meat
consumption per capita, Id pounds.
These figures show the proportion of
lamb and mutton to other meats to be
very small, and are more remarkable
because much of this rather small per-
centage, is consumed in the eastern
states. The sectional popularity of
mutton and lamb may be seen in fig
ures compiled from the departments
estimates Of sectional meat consump-
ton:
"In the east, one pound of mutton
and lamb IS used for every five pounds
OF beef, in the south the ratio is to
10, IN the west it is 1 to IL, and in
the central or corn-belt' states it is
j I'd 20.
"The reason for the limited use of
lau4b and mutton throughout the CEN
traI section probably had its origin in
the days of development of the great
cern-belt region west of the Appla-
achian mountains. At that time, sheep
owned by settlers came largely from
the north Atlantic states, and had
been developed almost without excep-
ton for wool production, regardless OF
The Inherent flavor Of the meat. The
flesh Of these animals was no doubt
tou gh, not so palatable as other meats,
and, possibly owing, to the crude meth
DDS Of caring for it, much of it was
unfit for use. And besides, the num-
Der being limited. it was necessary to
retain the animals in order to have
enough wool for farm clothing.
sAs this section has been somewhat
slower in the development of mutton
breeds Of sheep, and as much preju-
dice against the meat has been handed
down from one generation to another,
there has developed the idea that the
flesh of all sheep is not appetizing and
carries peculiar flavors, an opinion
which a large pencentage of the peo-
pie never try to substantiate or dis
prove. Furthermore, there is a feeling
that the task of butchering a sheep is
exceptionally difficult, and that it can
be accomplished only by some one ex-
pert In the work.
.sThere is a characteristic taste in
cooked mutton and lamb, due to the
chemical contents of the meat fat, that
makes it easy to distinguish from
ether kinds of meat. The same is true
Of beef, chicken, venison or rabbit.
Eastern consumers have a liking for
the peculiar flavor of mutton and
lamb, and the trade has been able to
sell the meat at fancy prices in that
section"
