Nor is the local buyer able to pay the full price for wools .which must be purchased a few fleeces at a time and carried at his personal expense and risk until sufficient volume has been accumlated to permit his shipment ship-ment to some central market Volume handling such as is pos sible where the entire cup ol community is sold collectively reduces re-duces the cost per pound of buy ng and handling, and will perm it the purchaser, whether a local wool mer chant or some outside buyer, to pay a higher price per pound than is po s-5ible s-5ible where it is necessary to pur chase rt- wool in .m-n toU.
