Increased Montana Sheep Production Keeps Revenue Steady
Helena, Aug 2. The gross returns from Montana sheep this year will nearly match 1925 despite a smaller wool value. Federal statistician Jay G. Diamond says wool production rises by a million pounds while the average market price falls from 46 to about 34 cents. The 1925 wool clip valued at 56,000 will be about 7,854,000 this year, a drop of roughly 31,302,001, yet broader sheep industry gains statewide should limit the revenue loss.
