They believe the e*P«U* ston of the future- will be' character­ ised fby less violent fluctuations than have been common heretofore because there la relatively little unoccupied *iafld to which the industry can turn and the pioneer phase of mutton and wool production fa rapidly passing. Nevertheless It fa pointed out that Die, sheepman fa this country will at- ways have to meet severe foreign com­ petition. He musf not only 'compete With wool grower* to other countries, hut with producers of other live stock, for land, labor and machinery of pro­ duction, There Is also the problem of getting an adequate place for lamb and mutton in the diet of the country. Moreover the sheepmen are warned that the recurring Cycles of prosperity ov depression that have been the bane o f the abeep industry to the past can­ not bb altogether eliminated. When prices for mutton and wool are low producers necessarily reduce their flocks. This action increases the nunw her of abeep marketed and causes ad- . dttfanal price' depression. Later on the supply of wool and mutton gets low so that prices rise again. When this takes place producers once more enlarge their flocks until the demand’ Is overshot again and the cycle fa re­ peated, The sheep industry reached s low point during the recent period of financial depression. It fa now 1 building up, but the department's workers do not expect'any early s*t- . Uraflon of the home demand because .the market for mutton fa continuing strong and the country normally baa *. pe tkiport about half Its wort aupfily. * : »- «afciyt~.brJafcai^.

Formerly sheep to the Unit­ ed States were raised almost exclu­ sively for wool. Recently the produc­ tion of mutton and lamb has assumed i dominating place fa the Industry. In Many western range outfits lambs fur- afah approximately £5 per cent of the revenue. But one of the greatestprob­ lems fa marketing fa that of avoiding congestton daring toe three-months’ period from August IB to November 16, and the department’s specialists .urge sheepmen throughout the coun­ ter t* give tola matter their close at- [taction. j l imb receipts at leading markets t o told farree-moath*’ period are fre­ quently much greater than can be ' readily absorbed, Bach gtufa always break price*.

It fa, however,! considerably lower than in many other; counttles. Average annual-per capita; consumption of lamb and mutton for, the fen-year period 3.912-1921 .in ther United States was 0.2 pound*. This, compares with a per capita consump-J tlon of 9 pounds in Canada in' 1910;! 20.7 pounds in the United Kingdom! from 1890 to 1908 ; 9 pounds fa France! fa 1904; ttftd in Germany of only 2.2! pounds a year for 1904-1913. • ] fa these periods the consumption of, lamb and mutton in these countries; constituted tlje following,, percentages of the total faeat consumption: 4.85; per- cent fa fhh United States; 3.57: pm? cent for Canada; 2&j!5’per cent- for the United Kingdom; 11.25 per cent for Fr&Ccc; 191 per cent for j > Germany, ’ . ThUs It fa evident that the problem of increasing consumption in thfa coun­ try 1* an Important one. Largely be­ cause of the dual character of- the sheep industry, which requires a steady- market for both meats and wool, the sheepman's marketing problems are more -difficult than those of either the cattle o r , the hog producer.. ‘People fa this country perfer strictly,, fresh, father than’frozen, lamb and mutton.

Though the United States Is the third country in wool production ’ and has produced an average of 800,000,000 pounds a year for the last, thirty-five years, i t has never met the home de­ mand. Imports for some years prior to the war averaged 200,000,900 poupds. They reached a peak at 458,727,000 pounds fa 1918. Probably & normal annual amount which must be Import-, ed fa around 800,000,000 pounds. Atnar-' lean sheepmen have therefore no need fa be (timid ef overshooting the home demand for wool. Since 1921 wool prices have more than doubled. The problem Of artllfig woW Is not to cre­ ate a market but to take the best ad­ vantage of the one that exists. This has been attempted In the last few years by considerable extension of co-operative marketing- Great quan­ tities of wool are now assembled an­ nually by wool pools and held a t cen­ tral points for Inspection by wool buy­ ers. Co-operation, however, has seen Iw greatest development In the farm dock regions, On the range, co-opera­ tive marketing it comparatively new, and affects only * small portion of the wool sold by large ranching outfits. I t has, however, achieved aome suc­ cess. Results indifat* that co-opera­ tive selling stimulates competition among buyers, facilitates busfaesritke transactions, and tend* to check over­ loading of markets. The ratio of the number of sheep to population fa the United State* has de­ rived since 1884. From 1890 to 1808 ther* were about 5 sheep for every 8 people. Ten yean later there were only 4. From 1919 to 1928 there wm * only 2.8 sheep for every 8 people, or about 1-8 *f a sheep par person.
