EstiMaTep WooL Crip or ENGLAND AND WALES IN CERTAIN YEARS, (millions of Ibs.) 1908 1913 1922 1923 1924 1925 ‘Washed. Unwashed. il } Total. 68 61 45 48 51 53 Of the 53 million Ibs. of wool clipped in 1925; about 2% mitlion Ibs. consisted of lamb’s wool. In addition to the wool clipped a certain amount of wool is obtained from slaughtered sheep and lambs, and the production of skin wool in England and Wales, at an estimated average weight per head of 3 Ibs., was approximately 15% million Ibs. in the twelve months, June, 1924, to May, 1925. The decrease in the wool clip as compared with 1908 and 1913 is of course the necessary consequence of the decline in the sheep flocks. The increase in recent years is the result of the recovery which has taken place in the number of sheep during those years. The proportion of washed wool in the total clip appears to be steadily declining; in 1908 about 75 per cent. of the clip was washed, in 1913 the proportion was 69 per cent., while by 1925 it had fallen to 58 per cent. The loss of weight of a fleece in washing varies considerably as between breed and breed and county and county, but, according to the returns received in 1925, is on the average about one-sixth of the weight of the unwashed fleece. If the clip is expressed in terms of unwashed wool on this basis, the total output has fallen from 78 million Ibs. in 1908 to 59 million Ibs. in 1925, a decrease of nearly 25 per cent. ag com- pared with a reduction of a little under 20 per cent. in the number of sheep. The relatively sharper decrease in the wool clip is due in the main to the fact that the reduction in the number of sheep as compared with 1908 is in the lowland sheep which earry a heavier fleece on the average than the hill sheep. The returns, however, indicate that there has been a slight reduction in the average weight of the fleece in the case of most breeds as compared with pre-war years, the decrease being probably accounted for by the increased proportion of ewes and the smaller proportion of older wethers in the total of sheep of over one year and possibly in part to the tendency to a reduction in the size of animals of the larger breeds. The variation in the number of sheep washed before shearing in the different census years does not allow a
