Some Wool Figures
Michigan farmers can study with profit the following wool quotations f rom the New York Wool Record of Maren 25, 1898: Michigan washed wools range from 18 to 28 cents. Sixteen cents is the highest price quoted for any Texas wool. The quotations for California range from 7 to 17 cents. Territorial wools, 12 to IS cents. Among the foreign wools Port Phillip combing is quoted in New York at 32 to 36. Australian and New Zealand at 24 to 26. South African, 18 to 20 cents. Canadian, 30 to 31. The same issue of the Record contains an account of the week's sales in London, at which the range of prices is equal and in some ir.stanees higher than American quotations for the same grade. In the light of these figuras it would seom that therè must be other causes than the Dingley tariff for the increase in wool prices.
