leader of livestock extension. both
of University Farm. They advise that
the wool growers OF county, pool
their wool crop and form a wool sell
ing association. for the handling OF
wool on commission only, the produ-
GERS to receive all proceeds less the
cost of handling. In 1919. a pool of A.
900 pounds at Bemidji attracted bids
from four outside buyers, and the
wool was sold for cash at premium
of about 10 cents above what the To-
cal market had offered prior to the
organization of the wool selling asso-
citation. Successful wool pools were
also conducted in Kittsnn Roseau,
Waseca, and other coun$ies.
