WON'T WORK
REGULATION OF THE WOOL OUTPUT. A prominent Wairarapa f armor was asked by our Wnirarapa correspondent what ho thought of tho proposal to restrict wool shipments with a view of keeping up the" prices.' • "I . do not think that the. scheme would work," was the reply. "You seo, there would be so many things against tho systonj
working successfully. New Zealand is a very small place, and independent action on its part might not have tho desired, effect. Then there would bo the financial consideration, which 1 can assure you would bo very important. \'ou would find, also, that if wool wore bringing a good price on tho London market, say, in January, all tho farmers would wish to ship their wool as quickly as possiblo. That would bo a weakness which we can all very well understand, but it would simply knock tho bottom out of the best of deep-laid schemes. No; I am afraid that nothing can be done that way." \
