Interest among farmers of the coun
try, and particularly those who are
running sheep, will be drawn to the
viewpoint of R. A. Ward", managei
of the Pacific Cooperative Wool
Growers, who, in a recent interview
goes into detail on the new tariff and
how it affects wool and what pro
tection the present bill will afford the
domestic wool industry.
"The tariff as passed provides for
a duty of 31 cents per dean pound
on alt wools used in the manufacture
of clothing," said Mr. Ward. "The
old Payne-Aldrich bill provided for
a duty of 11 cents per grease pound
and 3 3 cents per clean pound on the
theory that wools shrank about 66
per cent, which was about the actual
shrinkage for domestic territory fine
wools.
"As a matter of fact, choice Aus
tralian fine wools shrink 50 per cent,
so the wools were brought in in the
grease at 11 cents duty, whereas if
they had paid in proportion to their
clean content on 33 cents per pound
basis, as was the intention of the bill,
they would have paid about 16 14
cents a pound instead of the 11 cents
they did pay.
"This differential of about 5 cents
a pound was the "hidden" tariff
about which so much has been said,
and which domestic wool growers did
not get while woolen and worsted
manufacturers did, as the protection
on their manufactured goods was
based on 33 cents per clean ound
duty. It was this manifest injustice
which led the advocr.tes of a square
deal for the American wool grower
to demand a duty placed on the actua'
clean pound basis. As a result, we
have the new tariff of 31 cents per
clean pound, which while apparently
2 cents lower than the Payne-Aldrich
bill, is really higher and affords
greater protection to the domes'. ic
wool grower, as we will later show.
"The new tariff on wool is the
heavier wools pay less under the new
bill than they did in the Payne-Aldrich
measure, while the coarser wools
pay more.
"The 'practical result of all this to
American sheepmen will be that do
mestic prices for the coarser wools
of which we grow a great deal, will
be kept up by the high protection af
forded by the 31 cents per pound
clean duty. The finer wools of which
we import most will pay less rate
per grease pound, but at that a
strongly protective rate as compared
wih the former tariff bill. As a re
sult, one may expect to see prices for
coarse wools such as those grading
from three-eighths blood down to
braid, maintain their strength or even
strengthten In price, while on the
ttner grades no great increase is like
ly, as the new rate will permit of the
importation of large quantities of
fine Ausralian wools, of which our
market has been bare for many
months.
"The general result will be bene
ficial as the past two- years have seen
far too large a spread between fine
before returning , and coarse wools, the largest, in fact
in history.
"For example, at the present time
fine staple territory woo: is quoted
at $1.35 per clean pound, while braid
(which is our coarsest wool sheared
from Lincoln and Cotswell sheep) is
quoted at 5S cents per clean pound.
The entire world has been laboring
under a surplus or coarse wools, an
an over consumption of the finer
grades.
"As far as the United States is con
cerned, the new tariff rales should
assist materially in strengthening
coarse and medium wool prices ant
narrowing the spread between the
grades. This is a condition which i;
much to tube desired in restoring our
domestic sheep industry to a condi
tion om normal prosperity."

point.
Mr. Siler invited all present to as'
any questions they desired and the
many responses to that invitation
showed the interst that has been
aroused and that the producers of
Morrow county are beginning to
think things out for themselves.
Criticism was not lacking and
many mlormal discussions arose
after the meeting adjoured which
showed the general interest. No
stock was subscribed for at the meet
ing, general opinion being that the
producers wanted to think and talk
over the proposition before going in.
Another meeting was asked for, how
ever, and it was agreed that they all
get together tomorrow, (Wedesnday,
November 22nd,) at the same place
for further discussion and Investigation.
