be sensibly disturbed by the sheep's demands for
food and shelter. Yet we think that in Yarkand
and Khotan our purchases were made at rates not
inordinately above the market. Our ordinary ponies
cost an average of about $17. For special mounts
of excellent blood we went as high as $35, and in
one case $50. Big coats of undressed sheepskin,
carrying the wool, cost about $2 each; native shoes,
a sort of high-quartered moccasin, cost fifty cents
each. Saddles of painted wood, with excellent felt
pads, complete with girths, stirrup, and bridle, cost
$10. Pack-saddles, shaped like a long letter U and
filled with straw (ah, how it burned up there on the
cold plateau, when the horse lay stiff on the sand!),
cost about one dollar each. Wheat was approxi-
mately forty cents per bushel, and the bread made
by the natives was excellent and seemed to be abun-
dantly provided in the bazaars of all considerable
places. Meat also, in the large towns, was appar-
ently plentiful, market and butchery being generally
combined in one unedifying shop.
Silk carpets, for which in old days Khotan was
famous, are not as fine as those made in Persia.
Even here the mineral dye has done its meretricious
work. We saw a very big carpet in the making for
some equally big mandarin. Part of its hundred
feet of length was rolled around a beam resting on
the ground, thence rising to a yard-arm fixed athwart
the top of a tall tree-trunk. Forty feet of width ex-
posed a brilliant but well controlled design. The in-
dustrious workmen sit under a rainless sky and quietly
weave the giant fabric. What clattering of looms,
what paling of faces, what straining of nerves would
