Wool Growers Association.

Being absent from the City we
were not able to attend and note
the proceedings of the meeting of
the Wood County Wool Growers
Association, neld at the Court
House last Saturday. We clip the
following from the Jo,trnaps report,
Of special interest:
After the transaction Of the regu-
lar business, and the accession to
the membership Of A. |. Spencer,
G. w. Tavenner and M. P. Amiss,
the association resolved to select
subjects for discussion at the meet
ings, and the question of the COM
parative profits Of growing fine and
coarse wool was proposed for discus
sion at the next regular meeting to
be held on the first Monday in June.
1t was also suggested that each
wool grower bring samples of wool
from his flock to be inspected. The
next meeting promises to be Of I'M
usual interest and every farmer in
Wood County who has an interest
in wool growing should make an
effort to be present.
We hope our farmer readers will
bear this suggestion in mind. If
many of them would look into the
business and profits of sheep-grow-
ing compared with the suicidal prac-
tice of cultivating and re-cultivat-
ing their hill-sides, till the soil is
all worn out by over-cropping, or
washed down the creeks and ION to
the gulf, they might hit on a plan
to make lots more money, with
much less labor.
