Local Wool Sales Reach Prime Market Prices
About twenty seven thousand fleeces of local wool were sold this week by the growers' sales committee to Jeremiah Williams. The price was 31 1 2 cents per pound. J G Pace of Cedar City represented the purchasing company. The sales committee included Walter C. Mitchell Winford Day and Clark Orton. The Bayles Clings sale of five to ten thousand fleeces brought 32 1 2 cents. Cattle and sheep in Pine Valley areas show less sand in wool, aiding quality.
