The paragraph upon which 1 wish . .to make a. few remarks reads as fol- lows : “From sheeting to marketing. no country in the world handles wool in a worse manner than Canada. We do not know of any country where it is handled in such an un- satisfactory way and delivered . in such bad condition." This is exactly what we haVe beenl telling our customers for years. only; fore. It is customary. £180. to clipped before washing. dad is after- wards washed by hand in a tub. trough, creek or pond. u tho one may be. Most of the wool shipped from Manitoulin Island is tub-wash- ed. and very burry. The greatest objection manufacturers have to in modified language. as we imtsin°ocm tunwuhed wool is that it is such a plain statement coming from a wool dealer or manufacturer would Our firm has been manufacturing Canadian wool since the year 1870. Our average consumptiOn daily is now 3,800 pounds of wool. at least 95 per cent. being Canadian. I men- tion this in order that your readers may understand the situation and our relation to the subject under discussion.. The Commissioners. in their report. stated from shearing to marketing the-wool is badly handled. As a. matter of fact. the great bulk of Canadian wool gathers dirt from the time the fleece begins to grow; burrs in the summer. chan‘ in the full, and hay and pea straw during the winter months. Then. as if this were not sufficient to 'reduce the value of the wool to the lowest point. the shearers too often make it still worse when they clip the sheep on a barn floor or in a straw pen, or under the evergreen trees. where they proceed to roll up the wool with whatever foreign substance adheres tedious work they are entailing up- on tho uiool sorter, or the fact that [the wool thus damaged must necess- arily be unfit for goods for which it might otherwise be used. In some casbs the wool-growers and the shearers may not be aware that burrs and chill! and other dirt is the value of wool. scarcely imagine that detrimental to living in Ontario I overheard a conversation be tween 9. wool-grower and a. merchant last week. The merchant remarked, upon opening the bundle that there was chaff in the wool. The reply was that, last year. although his wool was clean. he did not receive a. cent more for it than his neigho bors whose wool was filled with dirt and burrs. so, continued the seller. “I decided I wasn't going to go to any trouble in keeping my sheep clean when my neighbors sold their wool and dirt. for the same price." This is not an exceptional instance, by any means. The buyers in On- tario are mostly merchants or grain buyers. the majority of whom tare not familiar with wool, and who buy it as it comes. fine and coarse, clean and dirty, trusting that the good will balance the bad, and it is all bought at the same price. The -manufacturer or wholesale wool dealâ€" er who buys the wool from the mer- chant is usually asked to make two bids. One to buy the wool flat (or in bulk). and also to quote prices on the different grades selected. Owing to the keen competition be- tween manufacturers and wholesale dealers, the wool sold at a flat rate brings within one cent. or even one- half cent. per pound of the price of the wool which is bought selected; and the buyer often has cause to regret his bargain. as there may be more inferior‘wool in the pile than he expected. The manufacturer los- es on the deal. The farlner who sold clean wool for less than it was worth in out. On the transaction. and the farmer who sold his damaged wool for more than it. was worth has the melancholy satisfaction of knowing that he sold inferior pro-â€" duce at the current market price. in. stead of having a drutacluna article. which would not have cost him one cent more to produce. As long as the business of buying and selling wool is continued in this slownly way just so long will wool be grown and sold in its present unsatisfactory. condition. Wools from foreign countries are sorted into various grades. not only due and course. but there are many degrees of grades‘ or umbrella. A smell aaulple by mall may be sent. to represent. a certain grade of wool. and a manufacturer depends upon receiving this in a uniform quality. which may be purchased at. any time and one year after another with llt~ tin or no variation from the ample. The Canadian wool varies from the coarse Lincoln and Cotswold wool to the fine Shropshire and South- down. with many mixtures of cross- breoding. but. notwithstanding this oonglomoration of sorts. the fibre of the wool grown in Canada is second to none in the world for strength and lustre. In spite of this natural «vantage. however. wool-grower. by his careless methods in bundlingpbu .

BRITISH CODUMBIA AND WES- TERN WOOL This wool is nearly all unwashed. It is extremely greasy. and shrinks from 50 to 60 per cent. in washing. our experience with western wool is that, like the Ontario wool. the fine and course is mixed indiscriminately together. ()arloads from certain ranches have turned out satisfactory while wool from others was in wretched condition. It is quite ap- parent that wool with the Western sheepman is regarded merely as a by-product. We recently opened up two cars of British Columbia. unwashed. There were fleeces in this which each con- tained from onechalf to two pounds of tag locks which had never been detached from the fleece by the shearer. There were pickings which were not worth the freight; and. in the same bales. the most beautiful fine wool. equal to any Australian Merino. as well as coarse. hairy fleeces not worth more than half as much. The sorters opened each suc- cocding bale with expectant interest. They found lambs' tails. old sheep skins which had lain on the prairie. the remains of sheep long since por- ishod. There was a motley of sticks. tins, paper. wires and rags. includ- ing a man's cotton shirt, which. judging from the article patches. had been repaired by a bachelor with a darning needle. We do not attribute the condition of this wool to dis- honesty or deliberate fraud on the part of the Western ranchers. but believe it is probably due to gross carelessness. . Not having been the last part the commissioners’ report, I do not know whether they suggested any remedy for improving the condition of the Canadian woof crops ‘or not. It seems to me that the wool-buy- ers and the manufacturers must bear their share of the responsibility. as the method of buying wool at a straight price for bad and good to- gether has been a premium on care- lessness, and has had a hopeful in- fluence in depreciating the quality and value of the wool grown in our fair Dominion. The greatest burden of responsibil- ity, however, must rest upon the wool-grower, who, in this enlighten- ed ago, can scarcely plead ignorance to justify his slovenly methods in producing this valuable commodity in its present unsatisfactory condi- tion. The principles of integrity and up- rightnesa must be observed in every industry. if it is going to succeed. It in a national industry, a com- porntil'ely small number of unprin- clpled partners will be the means of bringing disrepute upon the whole concern. For instance. for how many years Canadian apples did not command their rightful place in the markets of the world, owing to the fraud practised by a Very few coro- leou or dishonest packers. who ship- ped cull fruit in the barrels, with good fruit on top. When good mu penalties were meted out in the of- fenders nnd the from! refilled. the doc mend increased. and the Canadian brand has since advanced to the po- uition to which it. was entitled. if the Canadian wool in to com- mand the important position which. occluding to our most optimistic hence. we believe it, can and will no: cupy in conuletllion wllh wool from other countries. there must be u unl- voroul improvement in the methods -w high win was the only remedy for all their wants and woe: in their uphill fight against diflcultlea which the woollen manufacturer in Canada As it has often been marked, the majority of those who had the great- test difficulty in the struggle were the ones who were manufacturing shoddy with antiquated machinery. The factories which worked pure wool and made honest homespun goods are still in existence. I heartily approve of the sugges- tion made at the convention by and of the speakers to place a duty on shoddy. I would go one step farth- er and say a prohibltory duty not only on the :h‘oddy. but also on all shoddy goods. I firmly believe that this would be a universal benefit to the wool-grower. manufacturer and consumer. The cammlssionors' report on the Canadian wool stated that it is the worst-handled wool in the warld. Notice that it does not say a single word that. in derogatory at all to the quality of the wool. but to the carelessness in the handling. Now. it is high time that we Ca- nadians should wake up and remove this stigma which rests upon this. one of our most profitable. but, and to any, moat neglected natural pro- ducts. Like the Canadian apple. it will assert ftmrlghts and command its just dueo. provided the wool» grower will give it htlf a chance. ALEX. llORb. PORTER FUGITIVE WHEN SHOT DOWN Minden.

'lwu baggage cars and a. mail car rolled down the embankment which at that point is about 30 feet high. The second-class car slid half way down the bank and lay upon its side. All the other coaches were off the rails save the sleeper at the end. As a result of the accident the main line was blocked and four long passenger trains. with sleepers transferred from the main line at Bethany to the new line of the C.P.ll. at Bethany, steam- ed through Lindsay; thence to Burkton and Toronto. Strange to relate no one on the train was seriously injured. 'l‘vm men went. over the embankment in the baggage and mail cars. and one of them.
