ANNOUNCE WOOL 

 MARKETING PROGRAM 



Illinois Wool Growers Association the 

 lAA wool marketing cooperative, has 

 completed an agreement with Indiana 

 Wool Growers Association whereby the 

 Illinois cooperative will sell its wool in 

 Indianapolis instead of in Boston as has 

 been done for a number of years. 



The new agreement is expected to 

 facilitate earlier price settlements because 

 of the nearness of the Indianapolis mar- 

 ket. 



In the past, growers .brought their 

 wool to the county ^ol maintained by 

 the association, received an advance and 

 then awaited judgment of the Boston 

 market on its value before a final settle- 

 ment could be made. 



Under the new arrangement, farmers 

 will continue to deliver their wool to the 

 county pool but will not receive the 

 customary advance until it has been 

 graded at Indianapolis. Final settlement 

 will be made after appraisal by the Com- 

 modity Credit Corporation in Indian- 

 apolis. 



The Illinois Wool Growers Association 

 board of directors feels that the new 

 arrangement will be welcomed by both 

 grower and county pool because the 

 grower will get the advantage of a 

 speedier appraisal at a nearby market 

 and the pool will be relieved of the 

 responsibility of grading. 



Wool growers were also advised by 

 the board that the Commodity Credit 

 Corporation has extended the wool buy- 

 ing program until Nov. 1, 1946. Prices 

 will be approximately the same as they 

 were in 1945. 



In the 11 years that the National Poultry 

 Improvement Plan has been operating, the 

 average annual egg production per hen in 

 the U. S. has increased by more than two 

 dozen. 



Windbreaks properly planned and planted 



save on feed and fuel bills. 



The unloading of four cars of rock phos- 

 lAate at Ottawa illustrates the increasing 

 use of this essential soil builder.. All 

 were sampled ond tested by lAA soil im- 

 provement department. 



AFTER YOUR PROFITS! 



Flies are responsible for the loss of much of 

 what might have been your profits. They don't 

 take the cold cash, of course, but they sap the 

 strength of your cows, thus reducing milk 

 production. 



The losses through disease and fly-produced 

 parasites amounts to a tidy sum each year.
