Wool Pool To Pay 42 Percent For Native Wool
Emmet County wool producers who market their 1942 crop through the Iowa Sheep and Wool Producers Association will receive an advance payment of 42 cents per pound for bright or three eights blood native wool. Semi bright wools bring 37 cents per pound. The advance arises from a government sale at ceiling prices and replaces an earlier 80 cents per pound top native wool advance. The advance equals about 90 percent of the total price the farmer will get for his clipping, with final settlement to follow when the pool is sold.
