It Ms expressed in percentage, which 'means a lot of Wool weighing 10(1 louiids in the grease and only 34 pounds after it had been scoured, the shrinkage or loss, in scouring would be 66 pounds or 60 per cent of the original grease weight.

Besides this shrinkage there is about 5 cents delivery, costs which leaves 32.8 cents per pound as the approximate grease value on the ranch of this certain wool. If the shrinkage is 63 per cent instead of 65 the yield will be 37 per cent instead of 35 per cent The grease value at Boston with a 37 per cut yield at $108 per pound would be cents.

More than 8000 fleeces were sold from tbe pool. Work is under way in that part of the state to have a state wide wiool pool formed with representatives to meet, during the annual Farm Bureau convention.
