The woolgrower of the West will feel it and the western farmer will suffer by it. Why ? Becauso of a reduced population to need them. Foreign operatives. for want of employment here. are returning to their native countries. Indeed the tide of emigralion from is greater than the tide of immigration to our shores. and the number of consumers thereby greatly lessened. Especially does it behoove the western farmer to look well to the future. He will not always have as favorable a foreign market for his grain as be now has. for India is becoming a powerful competitor in the production and shipment of grain to England and other countries.
