THE WOOL EXHIBIT.

Arrangements Being Made for an ElaS-
crate Display.
The assistant secretary Of agriculture,
Mr. Willis, who Is in charge of the ex-
hibit of that department at the Worlds
Columbian exposition, is now taking
measures for thoroughly classified
representation there OF the wool in
dustry Of the United States He has
appointed q committee to look after this
matter, consisting OF Edward A. Greene,
~ Philadelphia, and Hon. John T.
Rich. Of Elba, Mich. It Is intended to
include In tho exhibit one hundred
samples of foreign woods taken from
the collection now being made for tho
customs service by the same committee.
OF domestic wools about two thousand
samples will be shown of all breeds and
CROSSES raised in the country. The
space available for this exhibit will not
permit OF showing many whole fieeces,
which will therefore. be restricted to q
few taken from pedigree sheep. Cen
orally speaking, the samples win be put
up in glass bottles holding about q
pound. and will be SO arranged in the
bottles as to show on the one side the
staple and on tho other the skin side of
the clip. In this way both the farmer
and the wool buyer will see the wool Us
they arc In the habit Of seeing It. An
effort will be made 10 relieve the
monotony which wouh arise from SO
many similar samples, by some special
<lecorativo features, such Us pictures OF
sheep, etc. Mr. Willis desires to secure
= fine MerinO ram to be stuffed and
mounted on pedestal In the center OF
the exhibit. He would like tenders Of
such ram, whose pedigree can be
tsnced to one OF moro noted sires. and
that is now growing his third fleece.
The animal selected will be exhibited
With the name and address of the
breeder attached. as In the case OF oil
samples Of wool where these are known.
! Although the space availablc for the ex-
hibit Is very small. It is hoped that by
using great care in the selection of the
samples It may prove OF value to the
wool growers OF the country.
