While thrifty city matrons with a yen for fancy needling may reet the.news with lifted brows, actually the angora market is currently in a slump. Oddly enough, provincial breeders place a large share of the blame. for low returns on the sloping shoulders of none other than General Doug- las MacArthur. "During the war years, angora wool fetched up to $22 per pound," Mys. Watt explains, "Then, when the Americans oc- cupied Japan, MacArthur sent over big shipments of Jap wool. The domestic market flattened right out, and has stayed that way. Now we get an average of $9.50 a pound." When the price slide started, a few Ontarlo breeders took stock of the situation. "It costs more ies without fear of arousing mas- culine ire." When Clarkson's model com- munity centre staged a handi- crafts show recently, Mrs. Watt undertook to demonstrate to a large audience just what she meant. Assisted by Mrs. Phyllis McKim, of Bronte, and Mrs. W. Bluhm, whose late husband was for some time president of the Ontario Angora Producers' Co- operative, she went at it in a big way, In one corner of a booth, a: pair of huge, snowy rabbits looked out wonderingly from clean wire cages. Seemingly unruffled, ex- cept where their thick, downy coats were concerned, they paid little attention as Mrs. McKim plucked great handfuls of wool from their hides. Seated at the wheel, her foot working the treadle, Mrs. Watt fed in the white puffs with one hand. The fingers of her other hand worked it over, and formed a co-op."

"We've managed to stabilize prices somewhat, and we are all enthusiastic as to the possibilities of the co-op," Mr. Watt de- clared. "With the commercial mills using only 25 to 50 per cent pure angora in their mixtures, we have to stick together." According to C, L.

"No mill is interest- ed in nine or ten pounds per week, but 200 pounds has them talking business," he- stated. Incidentally, while angora wool can naturally be dyed any color, the rabbits themselves offer a fair variety in natural tints, In addition to white, one may choose from smoke, grey, black and gol- den fawn when selecting breed- ing stock.
