ton viii be one of the chief slogans OF
sheep men at the coming national con-
vention Of wool growers in ogden Spe-
cial steps will be taken to bring the
matter before the Interstate Commerce
commission in an attempt to insure
speedier handling of mutton shipments.
1t is said that a recent shipment OF

a delay of two weeks and a loss Of
$4,000 to the shipper. Another in
stance of the delay in transportation
is cited in the case of the shipment Of
a carload Of sheep from Wanship TO

by freight shipments in less than
twelve hours, but which required four
days in this case, causing heavy dam
age to the shipper.
