Description
Summary:Dr. J. E. Duerden, Director of Wool Research, writes here on the problem of the uniformity of wool production. All raw wools vary much in their many characteristics, while the manufacturer, to produce the best fabrics, requires uniformity, the demand for which is now all the more insistent because of the uniformity possessed by the artificial fibre. The present study is concerned with the quality variability met with in single fleeces.--From caption.
