RESOLUTION   ADOPTED    BY   THE
WOOL  DEALERS.
The Boston Wool Trade Association
j have adopted the following resolution
I that Michigan wools shall not be con-
I sidered    Merchantable    unless    Free
j From Tags or parts of other Fleeces,
j tied with a Hard Glazed Twine, not
heavier or larger than what is known
as size 4%, 3-ply India, using not more
than three single strings each way ot
the Fleece.   Wool put otherwise than
in this manner shall be considered
Unmerchantable and shall be subject
to a discount of at least One Cent Per
Pound.   It might be well for all growers of wool to investigate this subject
before shearing time as it may save
you dollars.
OF Hit Repeating Shotgun
Made famous by its dependability. The solid top and side ejection keep gases and powder away from your eyes;
nelp quick, effective repeat snots. Rain, sleet, snow and foreign matter can't gel into tbe action.1"
The mechanism is strong, simple, wear-resistin-j. The double extractors pull any shell instantly: two spedal safety
devices prevent accidental discharge while action is unlocked, and an automatic recoil block makes hang 6res harmlesj.
All Marlins are strongly made, finely balanced, accurat<\ hard hitting guns, and are the quickest and easiest to tak&
■down and clean.   Illustration shows Model 24 grade "A" 12 gauge; it has all the features that make lor a perfect gt*n.
