Jamestown weekly alert. [volume] (Jamestown, Stutsman County, D.T. [N.D.]) 1882-1925, 1920-07-15

Dakota wool can be maintained, pro-
vided the minimum amount is not
less than 100000 pounds and in this
state we have approximately 2,000,'.
600 pounds.
Illinois, Iowa and 1ndiania have
been pooling their wool with this
house for the last two seasons with
excellent results. South Dakota is
this year shipping approximately one
million pounds to this same concern.
The same contract can be secured
for North Dakota wool as has been
secured by the other states, the main
points of which are as follows:
1. The National Woolgrowers
Warehouse Co., at Chicago will make
a charge of &c. per pound to cover
all labor involved in unloading, ship
ping the wool out of the warehouse,
insuring, grading, storage and SELL
ing for a period of five months. II,
after that date, it is necessary to
hold the wool longer, charge of
15c per sack per month will be mada,
and insurance extra.
2. The identity OF North Dakota
wool will be maintained il 100000
pounds are shipped thru the North
Dakota association. ....
8. The North Dakota Association
may have their REPRESENTATIVE at the
Warehouse to see that justice is Sc
cured in grading, weighing and SELL
ing their wool.
An advance of rs per cent of the
estimated value may be secured for
those who must have the money.
Tho Jamestown Meeting
At meeting in jamestown, Sat
urday, July 10 representatives were
present from three wool growers as
sociations in the county. The pro-
position was laid before them as CIV
en- in the lines above. There was
considerable discussion and a wide
difference of opinion expressed. How
ever it was decided that the mos.
feasible thing to do was to have each
OF our local associations, join -
State Federation of Wool Growers
Associa ton, paying soc. for each
member and permitting the State
association to levy hc. per pound
for covering the expense of having
Il representative from the State AS
sociation at Chicago, and ship our
wool to the Chicago National Wool
Growers Warehouse Co., the same
as is being done by the wool growers
in South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota,
Illinois, Indiana and many other
states. Each local association will
be asked to take this matter up with
their members and inform the Coun-
ty Agent as soon as possible how
much wool they are ready to ship
according to this plan.
