to stand for some time. At this fig.
ure the crop will bring $22, 500 gross
to the producers. Last spring the
market opened at IS cents for free Of
burrs, but in a short time fell to Is
cents and remained there for nearly
the entire season.
Several crops have been sold for 20
cents per pound and will be delivered
next week unless there is a decided
change in the temperature.
Maury county as a wool producing
county, is one of the best in the state
and has won a wide reputation with
the wool buyers in the eastern mar.
kets, but the most of the crop, in fact
nearly all of it. is handled by local
dealers, who sell to the wooden mills
in the east. Last season two firms,
Louis Barker and Anderson & Co
handled about $4,000 pounds, but after
the break in the eastern market the
buyers held it for higher prices and
came out on top.
