Every night one or more groups OF
Victory loan workers get together in
this city and devise plans for selling
more bonds and putting the city over
its quota.
Last night the committee from the
first ward met under the leadership
of it's chairman, J. B. We'll, and a
further canvass will be begun imme-
diately. In all the wards soliciting
will go merrfly on until the last
hour. Quite a number of sales have
been recorded during the last few

However, it is hoped that by Sat
urday night everyone will have been
seen and the rural districts will
come in with their share just as they
have so creditably done in the other
loans.
Payment Due by Saturday.
Those who have subscribed for
bonds are asked to go to the bank
which they designate on their appli-
cation not later than Saturday and
make the first payment or make
other arrangements for taking up
the bonds.
AS previously stated the banks in
Keokuk are willing to extend a par
tial payment plan to everyone who
will buy bond and the terms are
quite easy and extend over num-
Der of months.
1t is not necessary to hold off buy
ing a bond just because the actual
cash is not Immediately available.

PREPARING WOOL
AND SELLING 1T
Clark County Farm Bureau Agent
Disseminates Much Valuable
information For Sheep
Men.

W. A. Hook, county agricultural
agent of Clark county. is dissent
mating much important information
about shearing sheep and getting
market returns for wool to the best
advantage. The data comes from
D. A. Spencer, sheep extension spe-
cialist Of the Missouri College of Ag-
riculture, and is as follows:
Sheep shearing in Missouri Is
usually done during April and May.
Occasional cold, windy days will be
very severe on the shorn flock, and
for this reason it is advisable not to
shear until the weather is settled
and fairly warm Another advantage
In not shearing too early Is that the
fleece will be comparatively light
during hot summer weather. Never
shear when fleeces are wet.
A clean floor is needed for shear
ing, one that may be swept often and
kept free from litter. In order to
prepare the fleeces for the attrac.
ton Of the buyer, it. will be neces-
cary TO tie them up flesh side out.
This may he accomplished either by
the use of wool box or rolling the
fleece on a clean floor. Never use
more Irvine on a fleece than is nee
essary 1t Is usually possible to bind
fleece securely by two or THEE
strings each way around the fleece.
Never use binder Irvine to tie up the
fleece. The fibers OF such Irvine are
menace to good wool when in the
hands of the manufacturers. Paper
or glazed twine is most desirable Tor
lying UP fleeces, and paper wool
t"ine is really more desirable than
me glazed Irvine, for it has no fibers
Oh the paper Irvine will tie up about
% to 80 per cent more wool than a
dollars worth of glazed Irvine.
The wool should be stored immedi-
ateiy in wool sacks and kept in a
ciean, dry place. Never pile 1t on a
iloor strewn with chaff, straw, or
ntter Of any kind Remove tags

and half inches should be kept

Inc government is not planning to

control of the American wool trade
was discontinued last December. AL
