SATUEDAY - NOVEMBER 27, 1897
A. WOOL MARKET CONTINGENCY.
It is an old saying that all signs
fail in dry weather, which may be
changed to read, so far as the wool
' market is concerned, all signs fail in
unseasonable weather. Tlie month
, of October witnessed a striking fall
ing off in the transactions in the
wool market, occasioned by the ne
cessity of a breathing spell. The
impure price of wool has not yet been
reached, and the expectation of the
majority of the trade will not be sat
isfied until that has been accom
lished. The 'late advance in
prices, . however, was much
more rapid than any one had
anticipated, and more progress was
made in a given time towards offset
ting the full duty imposed by the
Dingley law than any one had a
right to predict. Consequently the
recent decline in activity, after the
enormous transactions previously re
corded, did not come as a disagreea
ble surprise. All are probably
agreed that had it not come, a very
disagreeable state of affairs later on
might reasonably have been pre
dicted, as a result of speculation.
But though the activity has been
retarded, says the Globe-Democrat,
the general expectation is that the
retardation will be but temporary.
The heavy-weight season in goods
should open not long hence, and it is
commonly assumed that the manu
facturers will not be in a position to
satisfy a normal demand without
greatly increasing their purchases of
the raw material. In short, the open
ing of heavy weight is relied upon
to start another movement similar to
that in the midst of which the wool
market found itself not so many
weeks ago.
If, it is argued, the manufacturers
bought so large an amount of raw
material to fill their light-weight or
ders, and if, as is generally believed,
they have only a limited supply of
wool on hand now, may it not be
taken for granted, always remem
beting tnat heavy weights use up
more stock than light weights, that
the demand for woo! in the near
future will exceed even that wit
nessed during the summer and earty
fall? This reasoning is, of course,
based on the supposition that the
demand for heavy-weight goods will
"be proportionately as large as was
that for light weights. The revival
f prosperity which has been so gen
erally noted since spring, has satis
fied most persons that this is 'a safe
supposition to work on. '
Safe enough but for one reason
Up to the present moment no one
seems to have allowed much of a
place in his calculations for unsea
sonable weather. Even though re
viving prosperity had struck the
mass or consumers much more pow
erfully than has been the case, it
would be unsafe to predict anything
like a normal business in wool manu
factures in the face of an open win
ter. So long a period of unseasona
ble weather as has recently been
witnessed is, we suppose, bound to
excite a fear that conditions during
the next few months may not be all
that is hoped. It would be rash, oJ
course, to indulge in predictions.
Tbe long delay in the advent of
bracing weather may mean absolute
ly nothing- as regards the intensity
and duration of the cold which will
intervene between now and the
balmy days, which are supposed to
characterize tpring. Nevertheless,
the contingency of an open winter
is calculated to make itself felt at
this time. Should the intensely cold
weather delay its coming too long,
there would very likely be a disposi
tion on the part of a great many
persons to get through the rest of the
winter with as small an expenditure
as possible.
Now that the wool market has
fallen upon dull times ence more,
the trade have leisure to indulge in
such reflections as the above. It . is
hard to figure any but a strong sta-
tistical position for wool in the long
run (confining that expression to the
next two or three years), but so
great is the impatience of our wool
growers and wool dealers to make
good the losses, of the last few years
that even a set-back of a few months
would be a most unwelcome event.

The public is invited to come and see
the chrysanthemums. They are now in
full Dloom, and ths is the best time to
get your plants. The lily, hyacinthe,
tulip, early and late narcissus and jon
quil bulbs aro now ready to plant for
spring and winter blooming. Now is
the time to get pasey plants for early
spring blooming. .
