Nevada wool growers push self selling plan for cloth
At a Salt Lake meeting of the National Wool Growers Association, proposals included growers sending wool to mills to spin and then retail cloth. A man’s all wool suit could cost about 55 dollars, with 20 dollars for cloth and 35 dollars for workmanship. The plan projected 60 orders daily per grower and 235 orders one member claimed to have filled in a day. A cooperative western wool market at Salt Lake was also suggested and Congress may be asked to embargo Australian and New Zealand frozen wool shipments to protect domestic output. Meanwhile Elko Free Press notes the Nevada Packard mine resumed operations after a month shutdown for water shortages, with Rochester Mines Company also set to resume work.
