consistent FACTOR in the o trade,
acting in the interest of the wool
growers, therefore
Be it Resolved hat we heartily
endorse the National Wool Ware
house and Storage company and
recommend that woods now unsold
should be consigned to that com
pany.
Resolved. hat we condemn as
dishonest the general practice of
selling re-worked wool Commonly
called "shoddy") under the trade
name "All Wool" We reaffirm
u endorsement of the French
Capper Truth-in-Fabric bill, and we
urge all associations interested in
agriculture and livestock in the
neighboring states to work to Sc
cure the passage of state laws sim
liar to the Wyoming pure Wool
act"
Be 1t further Resolved hat we
urge our representative in con-
gress to redouble their efforts to
secure the early passage of the
French-Capper bill.
Number II. e.
We consider it the duty of the
Federal Trades commission to pro-
coed against merchants who sell
under the term all wool goods
which contain shoddy and not all
virgin wool. We believe further
that this practice is a deception On
the purchasing public and the Fed
eral Trades commission can ard
should take the necessary steps to
terminate this unfair practice.
Number Is.
1t is hereby resolved that we
commend the untiring work of the
Federal Bureau of animal Industry
for its cooperation with the state
board of sheep commissioners and
urge its continued support.
1t is further resolved that we de-
mand and insist on the strict en-
forcement of the law regarding the
eradication of the terrible disease
known as scabies.
Number 16.
Resolved. hat we commend the
faithful and diligent work of the
Biological Survey and respectfully
urge our delegation in congress to
secure a liberal appropriation to en-
able the Biological Survey to in
crease its working force both for
the predatory animals and rodent
control, and we also ask that the
proceeds of the sale of furs made
by the hunters employed by the
federal government should be turned
over to the predatory animals fund
to be used for the expense of the
Biological Survey.
Number II
Resolved, that the valuations for
taxation purposed placed upon our
grazing lands are not only above a
fair market value, but dispropor-
tionately high as compared to other
of property. We recommend
the classification of lands be
clearly defined by what the lands
actually used for grazing lands can
be placed in a higher clasifca-
ton by local assessors. We recon-
mend further that in making vaIua-
tons on the different classes of
land the earning power of said lands
taken innto consideration instead
of a speculative value.
Number IS
Whereas, predatory wild animals
and disease cause great losses in
each year, and
Whereas, there are not sufficient
funds appropriated by our state and
federal government to co~bat these
menaces successfully.
Be it resolved that our state CON
stitution should be amended so as
to give our state legislature power
to enact a law levying a special
assessment on livestock, the funds
to be used for the purposes of the
eradication of predatory wild ami
mails and the determination of dis
eases.
