Farm Price Not Set
By Wool Ceiling
Ceiling prices established on wool
do not set a maximum farm price,
despite the fact that 37.1 cents for
greased wool is the basis used in
figuring the ceiling price applying
only to scoured wool. This explana
tion has been received by Oregon
extension officials from the USDA
and OPA headquarters.
While farm prices for wool will
naturally bear a relationship to clean
wool prices, the price ceiling is on
a clean basis and fixes no definite
maximum price to the grower.
