To make practical application Of the
above tables, If farmer has wool which
win grade as three-eighths staple, the
price on the clean secured basis is Sl,45
per pound. We note in the table of
shrinkages that three eighths staple, In
the grease, will shrink from As to 40 per
cent. Let us assume that a particular
lot will shrink AZ per cent. Therefore,
SO per cent of the weight Of the wool in
the grease will be clean secured wool.
Fifty-three per cent Of sl.45 equals 1886
cents, which should be the price of three
eighths staple in the grease Out of this
price, however, must be deducted an al
lowance of one and one-hslf cents per
pound TO cover dealers charges from
grower to loading wool on board cars, If
the grower sells to q country dealer, also
the freight from the shipping point to
the market and an allowance for mois-
ture shrinkage and interest. The freight
from northern Vermont points to Boston
is 1874 cents per cwt. A lot of three.
eighths staple wool in the grease should,
therefore, bring the grower slightly over
"a cents per pound.
A grower may consign to an approved
dealer on his own account, in which case
he would have the benefit of the one and
onehalf cents per pound allowed the
country dealer, whose services would be
dispensed with. We shall be glad to fur
nish lists of approved dealers to Vermont
wool growers who desire to ship direct.
Farmers should post themselves on
grades of wool and methods of eomput-
ing prices so that they will be in position
to demand what their wool is worth,

Commissioner of Agriculture.
