SCHMIDT DRUGGIST. GENERAL NEWS. The strike of Iron bed makers in Chicago 1ms been settled. The men won practically all of their demands. A merger of the principal electric lighting companies of the larger Eastern cities Is being resisted in the courts. There Is no disturbance at Sacra mento, but neither Is there any pros pect In sight for a settlement of the labor troubles there. Austin White, an old man, suicid ed by riding over Niagara Falls on It is generally admitted that In the past wool classing has not re ceived the attention which it de serves, but the renson far this Is doubtless to be found in the fact that many shecpowncrs have not al together thoroughly understood what Is really meant by wool classing, says Wool Markets and Sheep. In Australia the term "wool class ing" Is applied to the work carried on nt the station at shearing time, when the wool is being prepared for market. The object of classing Is to get up the wool in such a way as to Induce buyers to purchase at as high a prlco as they can possibly pay. In order to obtain the best re sults the classing must be done sci entifically, honestly nnd carefully. If done scientifically a great amount of competition will be In sured; if honestly, confidence on the part of the buyers will result; and If carefully, the general appearance of the wool will be rich as to at tract attention. Scientific classing means dividing the clip Into such lots as will best meet the requirements of the various sections of wool buyers (who, of course, represent the manufactur ers), and In such a way as to enable them to mo3t correctly ascertain its value. In order that this may bo clearly understood It should be stated that nil manufacturers do not require the same class of wool, nor, indeed can they all make use of the same qual ities. For Instance, "combers" nnd "card ers" are two distinct section of man ufacturers, each using a different class of machinery, and their re quirements vary according to cir cumstances, some manufacturers re quiring "fine" or "medium" quality, others very "coarse" wool for either combing or carding. Some combers only use a wool with a "sound sta not so particular In this respect, provided tho wool Is not too heavy, and Is classed In such a manner as to enable them to correctly estimate Its yield when scoured. American buyers will purchase a light condi tioned wool and have to pay 8 cents per pound duty on greasy wool Im ported Into the states. Deallntr more mlnutoly with the varied requirements of buyers, we find that combers want a combing wool that Is, a wool of a certain length and strength; carders use a clothing wool that Is, n short wool; manufacturers of a light weight ma terial must have a wool of a (Tno quality that Is, wool with fibres that are very small in diameter, Tlmso whn mnkp heavier coods can use a coarse wool which is of j J a thicker fibre. Some comuere win not buy unsound wool, as the staple Is altogether too easily broken dur ing the process of combing. This section generally prefers a broad sta ple wool, while on the other hand, buyers of the European continent will readily buy a tender wool, owing to the fact that their machinery can comb this class of wool profitably. In view of what has been writ ten from timo to time. It Is hnrd to understand why so much wool Is sent to market In such n deplorable condition, and without any attempt to meet the buyers" requirements. The arguments that "it does not pay to class wool on the farm, In fact that It Is simply a waste of time and money to do so, because the wool has to he sorted again when it gets to the factory," may appear very plausible, but it Is only neces sary to state that wool classing on the farm and wool sorting In the factory are distinct branches of the wool trade, and the arguments lose their efTect.
