FLEECES EASILY
WASHED AT HOME
AFTER MAKING WOOL INTO BATS,
BEDDING CAN BE FINISHED
AT LEISURE

When washed properly, fleeces from
the farm flock make excellent material
for light weight comforters, baby quilts,
and even pillows and mattresses, advises
management specialist at Montana
State college.
With the shearing season out OF the
way, many farm Housewives have raw
wool on hand which can be washed
and made into bats now and then
later on the bedding can be finished,
Miss Stautz said.
To get wool thoroughly clean with
the least effort, the home manage
ment specialist advises that sou water
is essential. If soft water Is not avail
able she recommends a good softener
such as trisodium phosphate.
The first step in washing a fleece is
to part it and remove all stained por-
lions and heavy locks. Unless this is
lone the wool will not be pure white.
The fleece is then immersed In clear,
lukewarm water. This first bath pre-
vents soap in the next bath from felt
ing the fibers.
The next bath is in a soap solution
consisting of n pound OF high grade
neutral soap to II gallons of rain water,
or softened water. The temperature OF
this bath should be between ITO and
liz degrees. The fleece is lifted from

At this point in the process another

soap to II gallons of soft water: The

should be repeated with another solu-
ton if the first washing fails to clean
The final washing operation is a
rinse in lukewarm water for from three
to five minutes. Rinse again in another
soft water bath that is somewhat COOL
er than the first: Then dry the fleeces
in warm air and it is ready to make
into bats.
If the washing operation is to be
successful it is essential that soft
water be used for every wash and
rinse, Miss Stautz cautions. She also
reminds farm women that if a water
softener is used it should be put in
the water before the soap is added.
Another point to remember is that a
factory for washing wool. The agita-
ton felts the wool and makes it hard
to card.
An excellent dryer may be made for
wool by placing clean boards two O.
three inches apart on Wooden horses
or boxes and covering the boards with
clean sheets o other white cloth. This
type of drying rack allows the air to
circulate through the wool.
For a medium sized comforter about
two or three pounds of washed and

"Silver King" of Early Placer Camp
Passes; Ever Had Faith in the Hills

Passing close to SO years in the state,
and a most successful operator when
the Gibbonsville placer mines had their
early boom, Morgan D. Jones, IS, died
recently in his cabin in that region,
where he had faithfully remained,
though the camp has long been de-
serted.
He was one of the most picturesque
figures in the Big Hole and Gibbons
vile districts. His cabin was in the
mountains near the old Gibbons Wis
dom highway.
Born in Wales in 1851, Morgan Jones
came to America in 1882. He served as
scout when the Santa Fe was under
construction in Arizona and New
Mexico. In 1888 he drove a half thou
sand head of cattle into the Big Hole
from Texas. He arrived in the valley
with 200 of the herd. The rest were
lost enrOute.
At that time the Gibbonsville placer
mines were booming and Mr.. Jones be-
came one of the most successful men
of the little camp. He was for q time
called the Silver King"
Lost Fortune
Like so many other miners, he lost

q fortune seeking greater wealth. He
was among the early prospectors in the
Pioneer district between Montana and
Idaho on the Gibbonsville road.
Though this camp has long been de-
serted, Mr.. Jones still had much faith
in the locality. He prospected in the
section for many years and lived on
his claims near what Is called the
Morgan Jones lake" through winter
SHOWS and summer sun for more than
a quarter Of a century.
The old man lived alone and many
times during the winter friends from
Wisdom and Gibbonsville would go on
snowshoes or skis to his cabin in the
deep snow to see how he was getting
along.
