The thought will strike the a: rage citizen as a flight of fancy in this day and age, though there §s no basls in fact for that attitude. Approximately 28,000 pounds of raw, Nutmeg state wool have been manufactured Into §,000 yards of cloth and 600 bed blankets. If you happen to be one of the lucky ‘n- dividuals you may corral some of the native suitings, for there are some 250 distributors scattered throughout the state, most of whom are the farmers who ralsed and sheared ‘the - sheep. Somewhere in the meighborhood of §,- 000 sheep of the Nutmeg state lowt their heavy growth of woal in the shearing process, yet most folks had no idea that thcre were that manmy in all of New England. In discussing the wool situation from| a Connecticut standpoint, Frederick Chapman of Old Saybrook, vi dent of the Connecticut Sheep Breed: association, tics and intimated during the course of his conversation that the sheep raising industry within the state was due fm, something of a ®Moost. Mr. Chapman attributed his belief to the encourage- ment given the wool growers under the provisions of the recent tariff. the recent action of Connecticut : sheep herders in pooling thelr interests may be taken as a criterion, there will be ample co-operation on the part of <he farmers in taking advantage of the si uation. Under cut the direction of the Conneecti- Sheep Breeders' association, up- 250 farmers pooled their wool and the entire bulk, amounting to 28.- 000 pounds. was turned over to the manufactureng Sor conversion into cloti. The wool began to appear about the middle of September and was gathercd at central points throughout the state. Cars were loaded at Willimantic, Plain- field, Saybrook, Sudbury, Seymour, Tor- rington and East Hartford, and the to- tal collected for the pool vepresented about one-half the wool grown in Con- necticut. Some of the farmers sold the wool outright, and in -those Instances received a flat rate of G50 cents per pound. For the first time' in many years, sheep raising is looming up before tie Connecticut agrarians as a worthavhile undertaking. As a result several car- loads of sheep have found their way into the state since the pool was put over, and the next wool crop should show a substantial increase. Jn ma instances,” farmers who wouldn’t con. s.der hawing sheep on the piace, afe| now —awaltening to the possibilities in | that fie:d, and sheep are mnow seen where they never browsed before. Ob- viously, it is the effect of the tariff, and the results are noted in increased sheeg Lerds, with the farmer acting as hm’ own retailer after the cloth comes back| from ¢he mill i In referring to the aims and purposes of the Connecticut Sheep Breedera” as- sociation, Mr. Thapman stated that it} planned to show, and actually/ prove tof the farmer. that thousands of acres of pasture land throughout theé state which is absolutely no good for the grazing of cattle, ‘can be used In a pay- g way .for sheep raising. Sheep. v Ahrive where cattle will starve, and in- cldentally they are a. valuable factor i keeping the pastures clear of the fast- growing orush. Connecticut farmers are seeling the light from a sheep-raising standpont : and it was Mr, Chapman’'s aplnion that| the industry would show a healthy anad ! prosperous condition, with satisfactory | remuneration of the farmer and the re- claiming of a vast acreage that s now useless, Mr. Chapman i5 very well re- membered in New London, having been a member of the; teaching staff at Bul keley school years ago.
