SHEEP
One industry where there Is never
a surplus is wool-growing. The
United States has 472,000 wool pro­
ducers and 4fl.000.000 sheep, yet 40
per cent of the nation's require­
ments must be Imported.
Two-
thirds of our output comes from the
Rocky mountain and West coast
states. Chief producers are Texas,
California.
Wyoming.
Montana,
South Dakota and Ohio. We also
produce each year, about 110.000.000
pounds of shorn wool and 60.000.000
pounds of pulled wool from slaugh- j
tercd sheep.
After the fleece is removed from
slaughtered sheep, the slat goes Into
glove leather, lining for shoes, sweat
bands for hats, and college diplo-
mas. The wool grease or Lanolin is
used as a basis for medicinal oint*
ments.
Sheep fat has wide uses in tallow,
soap, stearine or oleo oil. As glyc­
erine. it goes into anti-freeze liquids
and finds uses In paints, cellophane,
cosmetics and- bases for polish.
Blood is used in serums, medicines,
weather-proof glue and nnimal feed
and as a retardant for plaster.
It requires the glands of 100,000
lnmbs to make one pound pt adren-

which has been known to cause a

Sheep intestines become
strings for violins, cellos, harps and
ukuleles and many other musical in­
struments. They are much used for
surgical ligatures to tie blood vessels
and sew wounds during operations.
They are much favored because na­
ture absorbs them while the wound
is healing.
The best quality of

Slip cover material usually

Frequently a narrow chair back
