be classed under two heads-the Spanish and
the British breeds. The Spanish breed is the
Merino, which has modified more or less the
sheep of all Europe. including the British Is
lands, North and South America, South Africa
and Australia The Merino has very char
acteristic appearance, which easily distin-
guishes him from other breeds. He has thick
covering of wool over the forehead and cheeks.
his horns large ponderous and conyoluted
laterally. The wool is long, soft, and twisted
into silky looking spiral ringlets The wool
fbers highly imbricated and possess in the
highest degree fine felting qualities. The origin
of the Spanish Merino is not very well known
but the breed is known to have as foundation
the original breed introduced into the PENN
sua by the Romans upon which crossed
certain English sheep. most probably the Lei
cester or Lincoln sheep.
Up to the time of the Napoleonic wars the
position of Spain In the wool trade was at the
head. Spanish wool went all over the civilized
world and enjoyed reputation for being the
best. However, the peninsular wars, with the
attendant evils following thereon. had a most
disastrous effect the wool trade of Spain
and produced depreciation in its quality and
consequent loss in expectation for the wool
of the famous breed.
Spanish Merinos were taken to Hungary In
1775 and to France year later-the most
famous French Merino is the RambouiIlet
Spanish Merinos were first brought to Ram
bouillet by Daubenton In 1882 and from this
first Importation the breed was developed 1t is
now known all over the world as one of the
best of the Merino strains Spanish Merinos
were brought to the United States in the early
colonial days but the breed was lost in a pro-
miscucus crossing with the earlier imported
British breeds. The first Spanish Merinos
whose descendants have been kept pure were
brought to the United States in 1902.
Mernos were taken to the Spanish-Amer-
lean colonies almost with the first colonists.
and are the foundation and almost the sole
foundation of the so-called native breeds in all
the American Latin republics, but the breed
was not kept up, and consequently decayed
even more rapidly than subsequently In Spain
following the Napoleonic wars.
While Spain has the honor of having pro-
duced the most valuable single breed of sheep,
bred for wool peculiarly suitable for clothing
the British islands have produced the greatest
number of valuable breeds of sheep bred for
wool suitable for all purposes, and even for
the particular purpose for which Merino wool
Is best suited. but little inferior thereto or

dale. and Roscommon.
The short-wool breeds-this class
includes among others the famous
mutton breeds-are the Oxford
Down, Southdown. Shropshire.
Hampshire Down, Suffolk. Ryeland.
Somerset, and Dorset Horned.
The mountain breeds are the
Cheviot, Blackfaced Mountain.
Herdwick. Lonk, Dartmoor, Ex-
moor, Welsh Mountain, and Lime
stone.
All of these breeds are English
except the Border Leicester, Chevi-
OF. and Blackfaced. which are
Scotch, the Welsh which belongs TO
Wales, and the Roscommon to Ire
land.
The Leicester from an historical
standpoint is the most important OF
the long-wool English sheep, and II
was the great reputation of the
wool of this breed that gave Eng
land In the past Its prominent po-
sition as wool-producing coun-
try. Most important of all. 1t is the
Leicester blood which is the foun-
dation of many of the other best
English breeds and as such has ex-
tended itself over all the world.
The wool is fine. white. and long
stapled.
The Lincoln is the largest and
heaviest fieeced sheep. Many OF
the fleeces will weigh from Is to 20
pounds, with a staple 20 inches In
length. The Lincoln resembles the
Cotswold, but has less-pronounced
tuft on the forehead and the wool
is closer curled.
The wool of these sheep has a
fine glistening appearance which
has earned for it the name of "lus-
ter wool"

to be parallel. as in cotton or linen. Woolen
yarns. although hard-spun. look and feel light
and fluffy. Worsted yarns appear finer and
stronger.
The weaving of the two kinds of cloth Is
not unlike, at least not to the unskilled OBJ
server, except In one particular, and this is a
most important one-woolens are fulled and
worsteds not. The fulling of the CLOTH ac-
complished by heat, moisture and pressure,
brings together and interlocks by means of the
imbrication of the fiber the several threads
entering into the cloth into more or less
felted whole The cloth shrinks sometimes as
much as onehalf, and In such material. as for
instance the so-called doeskns and broadcloths
1t appears and feels like felt.
1t is this process of semifelting the CLOTH

OF wool were used in the two cloths-for wool

the long-staple, slightly mbricated or smooth

possible now to use the short-staple woods in
making worsteds.
In practise the raw wool, after being washed
and secured. is subjected to a series of comb
Ing processes, in each of which the particular
fbers suitable for certain purpose are ex-
tracted. The resduum after each combng is
called waste, although its value per pound

wool. From the sheep there are many varieties
of wool. long and short, straight and curly
coarse and fine, and, what is generally more
important than any of these varieties in the
serrations or imbrications appearing on the
surface of the fbers
1t is important in considering wool as a
commercial commodity to keep In mind the
three different kinds of cloth made therefrom.
These are commercially known in English as
felts, woolens. and worsteds The processes in
making these three kinds of cloth are SO diff.
ferent to make them entirely different In
dustries employing entirely different machin-
cry. Felt is made from the wool or fur In
mass, the cloth holding because of the lock
clutch of the imbricated fiber Woolens and
worsteds spun from threads, but the
threads in the two kinds of cloth are prepared
in different manner and the weaving is en-
tirely unlike. Formerly. entirely different
kinds of woods were used for making
the two kinds of cloths. rather 1t is more
accurate to say that only certain kinds of
woods could be used in making worsteds. Al
most any kind of wool could be used for ma
king wooens, although some were much more
suitable than others. and. as a rule those least
suitable for woolens best suitable for
worsteds. In effect, therefore. certain woods
used for wooens and certain other woods
for worsteds. With the improved modern ma
chinery used in worsted mills these limitations
are fading away, that worsteds now be
made from woods formerly not used for this
purpose.
The wool used FOR making woolens is card
ed; that for worsteds is combed The effect of
these two processes is that in the first the wool
fbers are crossed and interlocked as much as
possible. and in the second they are drawn out
