Although 1t is usually a very simple matter to find someone ready 10 assume the chairmsnship of this , or that committee, still there is one local body which is just now in desperate straits, being unable to function because of the lack of a determined leader.

SHEEP INDUSTRY PRICES ARE HIGH
Govt, Report Says End Of Top
 Figures Is in Sight

Washington, Aug. 20 LP) - The sheep industry apparently Is just approaching the end of a period of high prices, the department of agri- culture declared today in ah out look report on lambs and wool.
 Fairly well sustained prices for lambs for the remainder of the year but possibly lower prices for spring lambs in 1928 are to be expected, while the outlook for wool, 1t was added. Is uncertain, with lower prices probable next year unless an increased demand develops.
 Should the number of breeding ewes and lamb production be fur ther increased, as now seems likely, that would result in an increased production of wool in this country" the department continued. "The recovery of wool prices from the postwar depression is stimulating foreign countries also to increase production. The Australian wool crop Is expected to be larger than last years, and increases in the numbers of sheep In Europe also indicate larger wool clips there next spring.
 The prospective increase in SUD- ply, however, Is not 50 great as to cause further marked decline in prices unless there should be de- cline in the demand for roolen goods q decline In the general price level CT q slump in business &C., tivity.
 Tn addition hog prices will prob ably swing downward and it seems unlikely that beef prices will be maintained at the high level Of this fall Further, It seems unlikely that industrial activity will be continued tndennttely at the present high level, With the general level of prices re- main!ng the same, the still larger marketing of lambs coupled with lower prices of other meat animals. would result in a downward trend ot lamb prices beginning with the spring of 1928 and through 1927"
 Summarizing the report the de- partment says:
 The sheep industry apparently Is just approaching the end of period of high prices.
 Further large increases in sheen production will require buying ewes at fancy prices or holding val uable stock off the market, The probabilities are against this stock being relatively IS valuable in 1926 or 1927,
 "As between sheep and beef cattle. consideration should be given to the possibility that beef prices may tend upward during the next few years While sheep and wool prtc es seem likely 10 tend downward. Present beef prices reflect merely on unusual temporary situation; prices during the next year may be lower than at present but with an upward trend"
