Arizona Wool

For the seventh time in as. many years, R. J. Salter, Boston wool buyer, arrived in Phoenix this morning to open negotiations with wool raisers. who make this city their headquarters. Speaking of the quality of Arizona wool, Salter remarked that it stands high with eastern manufacturers, who have during recent years come to realize that it stands first in the western product. Salter attributes the su.
 perior quality to the fact that sheep owners have paid special attention to the breeding of their sheep, im- portations of blooded stock having been made by most of the sheep men. Just at present the possible revision of the wool tariff is caus- ing some worry to the wool raisers and buyers. Salter is one of the best known wool commission men in the country.-Arizona Democrat.
