At a Sleepy Eye gathering in the Commercial Club rooms the Brown County Wool Growers Association was formed. Tom Gannon was elected president, Otto Friton vice president, JD Ingraham secretary treasurer, with H A Alfred and Roy Current on the board. The cooperative aims to boost the wool trade, provide supplies, weigh and grade wool, and market it with costs prorated among shippers. Membership is fifty cents a year, and the group expects to set delivery dates and handle records, promising to return as much as the market allows after expenses with a small sinking fund for the association.
