Building Large Shearing Plant.

A sheep shearing plant unequalled
by any in the country is now being
built at Echo, by the wool growers OF
this neighborhood. The new plant
will consist of large permanent
building of substantial construction,
arranged so that a large number of
sheep can be handled easily.
The building is to have front Of
100 feet and will be $50 feet in
depth. Through the center there Is
to be a shearing deck 36xSO, onto
which the sheep are driven for shear
ing. Shutes carry the animals to the
ground floor after clipping. A belt
conveyor runs down the center of the
deck to carry the fleece to the pack
ing machine. Inspection bins will
be along the side.
Heretofore the Echo plant, housed
in rough temporary sheds, has shear
ed from 10000 to 10000 sheep ev-
cry spring. The increased facilities
provided by the new plant will allow
of handling much larger number.
When at capacity the plant will EN-
ploy so or so men. A cook house,
20x4O, for the shearers, is now being
built.-Echo News.
