Wool Substitute. Is Aztec ssg
ing Market Price Of Product
Fine Grades Sell for Less than Med
iums Due to Mixing Latter, With
"Rayon"-Co-op. Sales Good

"Rayon," new vegetable product
made from wood pulp, has been de-
veloped with much secresy until its
use has grown to an extent as to SER
iously affect the market on the fine
grades of wool, according to R p.
Jones, general manager of the Min
nesota Cooperative Wool GroWars
association. 81
In making sales of the large@lsts
of wool pooled through the assnda-
ton this year, Mrs. Jones noted a
mysterious demand for medium
grades of wool in preference to I fhe
fine grades, feature which buyers
for the wooden manufacturers never
explained the reason for. Inpeesti-
cation reveals the fact that rayon
mixes well with the medium grade
woods and adds a fine luster to- wo-
mems garments. Rayon costs whole
sale about sec Id. as against,'t$1
per pound for secured medium wbols.
1t is said that 100000 pounds of
the new product was used in. the
United States last year and rayon
garments are now extensively adyer-
tised in preference to silks.
TIL large use of this substitute in
place of silk has, a tendency to in
crease the demand for medium woels
while lessening the call for. fine
woods. IS r
The Minnesota Cooperative Wool
Growers association, with headquar-
tiers at Wabasha, handled more
than twice as much wool in 1925
than in 1924, and its sales SO Tar fave
brought very satisfactory returns to
the members. The November sales
