Wool shrinkaxe.

What should be the aekno lodged difference be-
tween washed and unwrshed wool is question OF
great Importance, but likely to be soon
answered to the satisfaction of ali. That the
present deduction If one-third for unwaeh,d
feeces, and one half for bucks unsashed. and
onethird for bucks feeces washed, is no correct
rule, everybody can see. No sensible man pre-
tends that onc-thirl of the weight oil fleece is
Ia out by the little more than the wetting in
cold water when it is given IL BY many farmers.
The wool OF some sheep unwashed has actually
less foreign matter in it than that of others after
washing Sheep sheared early. and before the oil
has started, do not afford heavy 9eeces as those
shearci later and after washing, yet the former
must be docked one-third.
Bucks frequently give cleaner and better
quality Of wool than other sheep in the same hock
which are rather higher We, bucks must be Gu,
down one third frequently when the buyer canno,
select the buck, fleece if be tries. We saw q
large buck shorn few days since, the fleece Of
which was large and clean, and weighed les. than
eight pounds, while other feeees from the same
flock, with much less wool, weighed nearly or quifs
as much. Can any one tell what justice there j,
in cutting this particular fleece down TO 6v,
pounds and Eve ounces because it grew on buck
while wool inferior to it. clipped from the sam,
flock, sold by the same man. and purchased by The
same buyer, is taken a, the weight given by tn,
