Lake during the shipping season season season sea sea- son but transferred to Chicago July 1 writes urging the need of better breeding of sheep and a a. more careful careful careful care care- ful handling of oC the wool both before and after atter it is shorn Mr Romney is in close touch with the actual handling and gr grading of the Utah wools and has opportunity of oC examining examining exam exam- ining the various clips He states that he is convinced that could the grower of inferior wool woot visit a grading room and see his clip side by side with wools of ot superior breeding better preparation outstanding character and condition most of which could be brought about by more Intelligent direction in the breeding and handlIng handling handl handl- ing of ot his sheep he would resolve then and there to Improve his flocks and to be more careful in the handlIng handling handling handl handl- ing of the wool He could then realize re realize realize re- re alize as never before the reason for tor his receiving less for tor his wool than that his neighbor l 1 Under g government v regulation tot for handling wool this year values values' are placed by a valuation committee ap appointed appointed appointed ap- ap pointed by the government on the estimated clean contents of wool representing choice average and common Specific values attach to these different classifications For example A grade carrying per pound for tor choice per pound for or average and per pound for tor common On a shrinkage basis of 66 per cent centi the value per pound in the grease grelS would be cents cents' for tor choice for tor average and 52 for common On the other hand If It the shrinkage on this same clip of ot wool was 50 per cent the tho grease value to the tho grower would be beSO 80 SO cents for choice 79 cents for tor average and cents for com com- mon As an illustration of f the wide difference In the shrinkage of wools the National Wool Warehouse Storage company received a large targe shipment of wool this season on which preliminary examination In Indicates Indicates indicates In- In a shrinkage of from 73 to 74 per cent another shipment of almost equal size will shrink only from 55 to 56 per cent it Is ed If It the scoured value the government government government govern govern- ment committee places on this should be per pound the relative relative relative rela rela- tive grease values of ot these two shipments if It both were choice In In condition would be cents per pound for tor the wool carrying 74 per cen shrinkage while the shipment of 55 66 per cent shrinkage would bring the grower 72 cents per pound Mr Romney believes teat tuat from tram now on the the marketing conditions o of wool will be greatly changed from tram the old system and that each grower will receive exactly what his wool Is worth worth worth-a a thing that has never been In the tho past and that with extension of at the government plan of concentration concentration

to clips of wool differing widely In grade grado shrinkage and condition Naturally Natural Natural- ly when the wool growers realize that by placing on the market an inferior Inferior In Inferior In- In class of wool they will receive a correspondingly lower price there will be a general move to Improve the quality of their their flocks and the the methods of ot handling the wool Much has been said by representatives representatives I ta of some of the eastern houses as to the tho efficiency and means possessed possessed possessed pos pos- by their particular house for obtaining quicker returns and better values to wool owners Statements of oC t this ls kind are without Justification t in fact as it is the purpose t the tho administration under the supervision of the war industry board that impartial Impartial Impartial Im Im- partial and fair treatment shall shaU be ba accorded to all handling concerns The outstanding fact tact should be kept in ml mind d however ho that the low medi medi- medium medium um wools such as one-half one blood and three-eighths' three blood and quarter one-quarter blood are the grades which the quartermaster generals' generals department demands for immediate military requirements requirements requirements re re- therefore clips that are running large to these grades will undoubtedly receive first attention The short heavy wools being used only for civil requirements will wUl not receive as quick attention and the returns will be unavoidably slower than the returns for Cor the other grade of wool The attention of oC the wool division of the war industries board is being called to the situation confronting the marketing of short heavy wools as as under the tho present working arrangements arrangements arrangements ar ar- can be brought about by which this seeming between between be be- tween short fine wools and the low medium grades can be arranged by which the wool growers will receive returns without unreasonable delay I 0 RED HED CROSS NOTES Mrs Feller chairman and Mrs R.
