Futures Uncertain In Wool Market

Montana wool buyers may delay contracting this year says Phil I. Cole a local sheepman in Great Falls noting buyer inspection before purchase and risks from past sudden market slumps. He expects consignments to rise as breeders anticipate higher post shipment prices and cites a Wisconsin feed yard price of 28.5 cents for wool. Lambing nears completion with shearing in about a month and buyers expected to travel to Montana.
