MERCER SHEEP

Especial to The Argus.)

Aledo, May 27.-Mercer county
sheep breeding nocks show a de-
probation Of "A per cent during the
period from Jan. 1, 1919 and 1920
to Jan. 1, 1921, according to the re-
cent livestock survey made by the
Mercer county farm bureau In con-
nection with the state survey made
by the Illinois Agricultural associa-
ton.
The proportion OF wool clipped
will be approximately the same this
year as in the past. The wool pool
will probably come a little later in
the season in order to give an op-
portunity to farmers to get work
Of q rush nature out OF the way
pravious to pooling, as well as de-
creasing the cost Of storage. Last
years pooled wool is practically all
sold although no money has been
returned to the conisgnors. The
practice with the wooden mills after
buying wool is to withhold payment
for 60 days after delivery. Last
years consignors to the wool poo
were able to obtain from 10 to Ii
cents a pound more for their WOO
than it had been sold for at any
time since it has been pooled.
Local buyers are now taking W
scattered punches at prices rang
ing from 10 to Is cents per pound
Sheep breeders, however, are con
WINGED Of the great benefit that car
be derived from the pooling of theil
wool. AS a result of the efforts OF
the part Of the sheep mems organi
zation and the bureaus, shearinl
prices were decreased by 80 1-3 PEE
cent and there will be but few
flocks but what will have beef
shOrn by June l.
Mercer county people who or
dered wool blankets through tn
Mercer county farm bureau will b.
Interested to know that they will
be among the last to receive thes
blankets. In the drawing of orde
in which the shipments would b
made from the mills, Mercer cam
out in the 90th place. According t
the farm bureau it probably will b
a month before shipment of blan
kets reaches Aledo or Merce
county.
