AUSTRALIAN WOOL CLOSE TO RECORD

The estimate of 8,146,000 bales for the 1934-35 season's Australian wool clip is likely to be reached. making it the second largest on record.

It compares with 2.9050388 bales in 1933-34. and lust fails short of the record of 3,206,010 bales in 1982-33.

With a further rise of 5 per cent. in Brisbane recently Australian wool values have now reached the highest point since August. 1034.

" kers state that there will be a great proportion of crossbred wool in Australia in the coming season as the expected decline in the dip would be chiefly in mer- ime.—Australian Prue Bureau.
