Book excerpt: Excerpt from World Wool Prospects, Vol. 85: May 31, 1935 The outstanding development in the domestic wool market in the last month was the upward turn in domestic wool prices after a decline which had continued for months. The price advance followed an in crease in trading and heavy sales of wool on the Boston market in May. Rising prices in foreign markets, the smaller domestic clip and the relatively high consumption of wool by United States mills in recent months were contributing factors in the domestic price advance. Changes in prices in the United States during the remainder of the season Will depend in considerable measure upon the extent of improvement in domestic mill consumption of wool during the year. Prices at the Opening of the third series of London Wool sales on May 8 confirmed the advance in Southern Hemisphere markets during April. German buyers took considerable quantities of crossbred wool during the series. Demand Was fairly good from both English and continental buyers and at the close of the sales prices generally showed an advance of 10 to 15 percent and medium crossbreds an advance of 20 to 25 percent compared with the closing quotations of the March series. Wool prices also continued to advance in Southern Hemisphere selling centers in May. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
