'As, to wool be looks for considerably lower prices next ; year. ;One effect of .thè recent election has been to entirely stop the buyingof wool for speculation. Until it is seen just what the new congress will do in regard to the. - tariff on wool there will be arlit- tle buying as possible, and the effect will undoubtedly be to de press the market price\of wool. It corigress'passess a free wool bill . admitting' Australian wool free tho effect will“ 'be to practiealíy drive the Montana wool grower' -oitt òf thè business. - Tifò amount of Wool raised- in Australia is enormous. The increase in la>t year’s Australian wool clips over the preceding year was- 95,000,000 pounds,’ about eight times as much as the entire product of This state. However, Mr. Coop'èr sees a silver lining to the cloud which threatens the wool growing industry .of this. atate through thé free trade proc livities of : the reformers. ' Hé thinks that. the . sheep man will turn his atténtiop more to raising muti on aud after a few years dur ing which\ prices of both wool and hiutton/will be low. from the fact that the wool v market will • be’ flooded with foreign wool and the, muttoñ/market with mutton on account of the smaller sheepmèn' going put of.-the business, there will be a recoy^ry.and ..those yv.ho have held out .will got. a fair price- for good mutton which'Will in so,me meksure compensate. them for their loss on the reduced price Of wool.

Irrigation in Montana is breath to the lungs and pulsations:■ to its heart. .Tlie trickling: .water bap tizes seed for a sacrecf; mission to man. It is the:chois'eit gift, of na ture and the present prodigality of waste is au.iii.sult to providence. The' water of every mountain stream, when' spiead upon the fields, generates grains of gold on silver straw, and the'yield is per ennial. Beneficial legislation will be the fairy’s wand which changes the pumpkin .into the gorgeous coach and'transforms the rags of the kitchen maid into the jeweled robes of theprinCess. . N o v debt, however gréât., wiil be a burden if applied to conversion of the val leys into fields^.of waving, grain. If the announcement were made that fifty millions of „dollars in gold dust -was. anuually washed out of the state in the _ Missouri river there would be a simultane ous rush of miners to its most con venient banks. Appliances of every kind, however costly, would be provided and- no effort spared to reclaim the precious sand. I f necessary, the course of .the stream would be changed and herculean labor devoted to the' construction of another bed for the • impending flow. . ; Such is the fact. Fifty millions are yéarïy lost to Montana in the water that runs 7 seaward. That water, if prop.Orlÿ applied by ir rigation to-the soil, would yield the full*1 equivalent in value of 'harvested crops, and yet the omis sion excites scarcely a comment. Mining,is the single horse har_ nessed to ,the pole and needing—a woi'king mate in'agnculture.
