MONGOLIAN WOOL.
Mr _C. M. McDonald, correspondent of tho Timed (London) in Poiping, said on hjs arrival at Sydney recently that it was generally believed that Japan was not making much progress with projects for tho production of wool on a largo scale in Mongolia. "Mongolia has a very severe climate," Mr McDonald eaid. ".Efforts to induce the Mongols to improve tho standard of their sheep-breeding have met with little success. The country is uninviting, and the Japanese will never settle in it themsolves. The work will have to be dono by the Mongols, who are essentially nomadic and do not take well to organised modern , methods."
