RISE IN WOOL
YORKSHIRE OPINIONS. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) Received September 20, 1.30 p.m. LONDON, Sept. 19. Discussing the firmness of wool, the Yorkshire Observer says: “Many think the best prices‘will be seen at the end of the season, when better clips will be offering.” The paper quotes a circular issued by the Campagnie Commercial® Kreglindcrs, Antwerp, expressing the opinion that the Australian clip was not only 300,000 bales short, but lighter in the weight of the fleeces, making virtually a double shrinkage. Furthermore, it was likely that the South African diminution would be between 150.000 and 250,000 bales. The Yorkshire Post comments on the limited offerings of shafty, greasy Merino combings of the Bradford style, and adds that the preponderance of lower crossbreds is less embarrassing now that weavers are popularising mohair worsted linings.
