WOOL GROWERS MEET

The wool men of Crawford county
met Monday afternoon in the farm
bureau Office and organized county
wool growers association. The coun-
ity, association is a branch of the Iowa
division of the State Wool Growers
association.
The purpose of this organization is
to improve the marketing system of
the clip. Heretofore all wool growers
sold direct to the wool commission
men. Many Of the wool men were not
{. familiar with the wool grading system
and consequently they were at the
mercy of commission men, both as to
grading and price. i /, 49, !,
Tis year all wool men joining the
association have the privilege OF mar
kettng through the state association.
Each man sells his clip direct to the
manufacturer, paying 21s cents per
pound commission charges and the
freight to the commission house and
handling the wool The National Wool
Warehouse and Storage company will
handle the Iowa clip.
The Crawford county wool men de-
cided to ship comparatively this year
and to market through the state asso-
citation.
The wool will be shipped by the
car load from Denison. Each sack
will be weighed and tagged by the
county agent. The freight charges
will be pro rated among the shippers.
Arrangements were also made at
the meeting Monday to obtain q wool
|shearer. A circuit was laid out so
that shearing could be done quicker.
All wool men who were unable to at
tend the meeting Monday and who
wish to ship through the association
should get in touch with any OF the
following officers of the association: 1
Frank Slater, president; Thos. Glib
line, vice president; J. S. Quist, secre-
Itary, and Henry Hadenfeldt, treasurer
The W. G. T. U. meeting on last
Thursday was of much interest. Fur
Their jubilee campaign plans were made
and jubilee messages received from
many parts of the country. AS 1t was
the meeting nearest to Mothers day
the president called for each one
present to tell something she remem.
bered about her mother. This was
very interesting part of the program.
Tie death of Mrs. Emma Bond was
mentioned and the secretary instruct
ed to note this worthy :. members
passing from us both in the minutes
and in the state organ of the w. G. T.
u. Mention was also made of our
thankfulness that DR.. Winifred Miller,
who had met with such severe acct.
dent, had escaped without permanent
injury. The union sent a beautiful
bouquet OF spring flowers to her. A
plan was made for mid-month meet
ing which will be announced later, to
which all are requested, il possible,
to bring q jubilee dollar.
