A Convention Of Wool Growers.

"A Wool Growers Convention la,el,
me. at Rocbcst.r, n. Y, and had "a
very interesting and important session.
II. I. Brooks from the Committee Oh
Resolutions, reported the tollo@ing:
Resolved, That the practice Of WASH
ing sheep should be abolished; because.
1st, 1t permits OF early shearing,
which secures a greater quantity oi
wool and longer staple, aud a better
condition OF sheep and lambs through
out the year.
I'd, Ii would be conductive to the
interests OF the grower and the manu-
factursr, III as much as II would nee
essitate the purchase of wool upon its
merits, and abolish the unjust practice
Of purchasing at average rates.
Sd, " the exposure to contagious
disease, such as srab, foot rot, &c.
4th, That it is an expensive, unpleas-
ant job, and unhealthy for man and
sheep. That the loss resulting from
sheep taking cold, overrun in yards,
dro~ nirg and other accidents md in
juries incidental to washing 5 often
very great, AID that manufacturers can
cleanse the wool cheaper than the
grower.
5lh, That il is the duty, as it is for
the interest of wool growers to pint
their unwashed wool in good condition
for the buyer by thoroughly tagging
thsir sheep, by keeping their sheds and
yards well Uttered during the fodderiny
season, and By throwing out all filth
that can bs. separated from the wool.
9th, As some lots of wool are more
gross and gummy than ethers, the buy
er should not decide on any uniform
rate Of deduction for shrinkage, but
each lot should be sold on its own mer-
its, according to its quality and con-
diIion.
Lastly, As generally practiced wash
ing is little or no Improvement to the
fleece in cleanliness or condition."
The discussion was quite interesting 9
and was participated in by both wool
growers aud wool buyers.
The resolutions were finally carried
BY ] small majority, only a portion OF
the Convention voting.
ID. I. Moore, of the Rural Nesc
Yorker "fisrsd the following:
ResoiUed, That the practice of wool
buyers in paying nearly or quite as
much for poorly put up wool ot infer
ior quality, with dirt and tags included,
a. they do for clean, well prepared, fine
stspIe, is a premium for sloyIiness If
not dishonesty; and that whether we
wash cur sheep or not, one ofthe great.
est wants Of fair and honorable wool
growers is just discrimination on the
part OF purchasers and manufacturers.
Tue resolution was unanimously
adopted.

50 pa al-essed beiele going 10 bed.
" hlcls is always advisable. No one,
yoang or old, can sleep well with a
poulllce off,early, ,unsiisested food on
either the outside cor inside of the slom-
aeh. In addition to the above, ne have
for several years successfully praeticed
fastening the covering upon the bed.
For this purpose, simple screws, or
small wooden knobs, fastened into the
two side rails on the under side-one
near each head post, aud one near the
foot. Two. strong tapes or narrow
strips of cloth are tackled across one
coverlet few inches from the head
and foot, and loops on the ends are
brought over the side rails, and thrown
over the screw heads, leaving the cover
let loose, but So that it can not be
pushed off. The long strip is preferred
10 short loops fastened to the edge of
the covsrlet, which may tear out This
method is effectnal, and costs bu, little
trouble. In letter to the american
Agriculturist, "Ann Eliza" of Cold
Spring, L. l., writes on the same sub
ject: ''To make child sleep comtorta-
bly,, and not push off the bed clothes,
screw a small knob on the side of the
trundle bedstead or cradle, on the in
side, then sew strong loops or strings,
on the under quilt far enough from each
end, to draw IL sung acrpss under the
chin, not too tightly /; then, put on as
much other beding outside as is neces-
sary, and so long as the loops and knobs
do not give way, the child can not set
uncovered. / IA child has the habit of
throwing the head back, and pushing
itself out in that way, slip down inside
the head board, another peg high
enough To 60 10 or 2 inches above the
pillow; or better still, if the trundle bed
is drawn out before door or window,
have head similar to a cradle head,
To slide down far enough, to set firmly
ON the bottom OF the trundle- -bedstead,
aud the child can not help sleeping
warm. If two children, put middle
loop on the quilt, and knob in the
center at the head. The knobs should
be- far enough down so that they can
not strike the head against them, aud
the loops long accordingly. In very
cold weather the child's bed should be
warmed, by laying III the bed pieces Of
wood a.. BOARD, that have been previous
ly warmed III the stove oven, putting
In half an hour before the child goes To
rest, SO that not only the blanket but
the bed Will be warm aud the little ones
will not be shivering long while, but
nestle down aud in q few minutes be
fast asleep. The two children of the
writer sleep, one in the trundle- bed, and
one in the cradle, fastened as above de
scribcd, and have never known what it
was to sleep cold. None but a mother
can know what a satisfaction it is, to be
certain that her child is comfortable in
a cold Winter night, and no fear of
throwing off the covering, and laying
a foundation for fiji of sickness aud
perhaps death"
The Cass County Republican., 1863-06-18


Many a severe cold, and not unfre-
qaenily sickness and death, have result
ted. from sleeping wi,l,..st covering ;
and this happens quite as frequently in
Summer as in Winter, Tor in the latter
sesspu, greater care is exercised, and
She v ind 'vs and doors are less likely
to be left open IN way To produce a
direct siranght Of air. Restless child

the careful mother or father, before re-
firing. This csu. IN part, bns not Who'll
