A 1906 magazine article surveying Oregon's wool industry, from sheep raising and shearing through baling, sale, scouring, and manufacture in the state's woolen mills. It gives 1905 production figures and prices, compares Oregon with other western states and Massachusetts, and discusses the influence of climate on fleece quality. It names the principal Oregon mills and the products they made, including tailoring cloth, blankets, and Indian-pattern blankets. One halftone photograph shows sheep shearers at work.
