Pooling the Wool Clip of 1920.

What will gain by pooling my
wool That is the question being
asked by every one who has sheep.
There viii not be much gained if only
few go into the pool. But this will
be gained by every one who has good
wool; he will get the very highest price
for his wool. For the one who has
poor wool it will not be much gain ex-
cept he will get what his wool is worth.
Now what mean is this The buyers
are not in the business of buying wool
for the fun they can get out of it. Ii
the wool is not graded they must scale
their prices so that the poorer wool is
paid for at a little better price than ii
is worth and the good wool at a price
a little lower than it is worth.
This state OF affairs will help the
poor wool grower but it will hinder
the better wool growers.
We are going TO have a grader pres
emit at the Town Hall on the day OF
June 9Th. Bring your wool in that
day and see it graded and will not feel
that you might have done better il you
had known your grade OF wool II you
cannot get in that day but can bring
your wool the day before, bring it in
and see me at the Court House and |
will weigh your wool and have it grad
ed for you the next day and SEND you
the amount of your different grades.

Secretary Sheep Growers Association.

Another Counterfeit
War Savings Stamp.

The Post Office Department a few
days ago announced the discovery OF
another dangerous counterfeit OF the
blue war savings stamp, series OF 1913,
in addition to the one discovered about
a month ago.
The second counterfeit is printed
from a steel plate on a good grade of
white paper, and is a close reproduc-
ton OF the genuine, it is declared.
There are several defects, however,
some OF which are given as follows
1.-THE counterfeit is OF a somewhat
lighter shade OF blue than the genuine
stamp, and the printing is found under
a magnifying glass 10 be not SO dis
tinct.
The hyphen in the words "War-
savings" at the top looks more like a
period than hyphen.
"A distinct white vertical line APP
pears in the counterfeit along the edge
of Franklin's lett cheek.
THE upper little bali or dot between
the laurel leaves on the right-hand side
OF the stamp, at the left OF the August
price "A. IL, is not so distinct as in
the original. and looks more like a
part OF the leaf.
1.-The white vertical line near the
edge of Franklin's left cheek is the
most marked defect. Most OF the other
differences are so slight that expert
examination will be required to detect
them.
