WOODS TO
BE SECURED
EXPERIMENT STATION TO BEGIN
EXPERIMENTS IN INTER-
EsTs OF PRODUCER.
Difference Between Buyer and Seller
to Be Determined by Wyoming
Agricultural College Experiment
Station, FIeeces to Be Donated by
the Sheepmen of State.

The Cheyenne Tribune is in receipt
of the following letter from G. E. Nor
ton, professor of animal husbandry at
the experiment station at the Uniyer-
sity Of Wyoming, which is ~self-explan-
atory:
The experiment station is about to
begin work of considerable Importance
to the wool growers of the state. We
are putting in a wool securing plant
with the intention of securing woods
from different section of the state, and
finding whether the percentages which
we secure are the same as those
claimed by the buyers.
Growers and Buyers Apart.
AS you, no doubt, are aware, the
wool growers are i ma large part at
the mercy of the wool buyers. The
wool growers are in a large part at
a certain percentage, and, although the
grower may think that the percentage
named is incorrect, he has no way of
verifying his belief. If samples of your
wool are sent in to us to scour, we will
report to you the results obtained.
Want Certain Kinds.
We would like to secure three 2-year-
old eve leeces of each class of wool
you have, a light weight, a medium
and a heavy weight fleece. This will
give US three feeces from which to
secure the average securing percent
age of your 2-year-old eve f~leeces, and
by having this same age of fleece from
various parts Of the state, we will be
able to compare the securing percent
ages of the wool raised on different
ranges.
FIeeces to Be Donated.
We ask you to donate these ~leeces,
Iinasmuch as in most cases they must
be sent by express, and the express
charges on them will be so heavy as
to be barely met by the sale of the
secured wool. If you care to send
other feeces, such as wether feeces OF
a certain age, you may, and we will be
glad to report upon them as soon as
possible, although we will not be in a
position to handle very much wool this
year. Next year we expect to be in
full swing, and may be able to scour a
truer sample for you than the eve
leeces constitute.
An Important Movement.
If your wool clip is sold, and you
canont furnish us with samples, please
write us, stating whether o. are in
terested, and whether you care to have
a sample of your wool coured next
year. We feel that this movement is
of great Importance to the sheep in
dustry of the state, and we hope you
will give it your hearty support and
cooperation.
FIeeces Should Be Tagged.
Put tags upon all fieeces reserved
for us, stating the age and sex of the
sheep, the kind of range run upon and
any other facts which you think will
