New Wood Hydrometer Aids Forest Fire Prevention
M. E. Dunlap of the United States forest products laboratory introduces a wood hydrometer to measure moisture in dead wood and logs. At Missoula Rocky Mountain station the instrument helps foresters predict dryness days in advance, guiding fire guards and smoke chasers to strategic locations to suppress fires early. A second duff hydrometer measures ground litter moisture, improving overall fire risk assessment and safety for field crews.

50 000 Fleeces Remain Unsold in Northern Montana
The 1928 Montana wool clip mostly contracted to eastern buyers, with about 50 000 fleeces left unsold. Unsold wool is 5 to 10 percent of the north state output. Wool prices have fallen 10 to 16 percent, and buyers cannot forecast if the decline is temporary. Wool houses supervise loading and shipping resumes as shearing proceeds.
