Volume 59 Since winter arrived in reality as well as on the calendar, we’ve all been taking our woolen cloth ing out of storage and possibly have gone to the store for more. Perhaps some of you are a bit puzzled about all the terms that go with wool. Such things-as virgin wool, new wool, all wool, reprocessed, wool and re-used wool are a little more than con fusing. So I’ll give you a little explanation of them, so that you will know what you are buying. Many of these terms came into use after the Wool Products La beling Act passed by Congress in 1939. Enacted to protect the con sumer, this law requires that a label stating the fiber content of the fabric in terms of percentage must be firmly attached to any product containing wool with the exception of upholsteries and floor coverings. Although we commonly think of wool as the fleece from sheep, the term also includes such “spe cialty fibers” from the camel, an gora and cashmere goat, the llama, alpaca and vicuna. Virgin wool is wool that has never been processed in any way before it was made into the gar ment. Virgin wool may also be called “new wool.” Fabrics of the highest quality are always made from virgin wool. A label with just the word “Wool” or “All Wool” tells you that the fibers may have been partially processed. Yarns which have been processed up to weav ing or felting may have been used. In enacting the law, con gress decided to permit the use Brightens up your home!

Co. of these wastes and clippings on the theory that the damage done in this processing was not suffi cient to seriously alter the qual ity of the fibers. Now we come to the terms “reprocessed” and “re-used\ wool. There is a big difference in the quality of these two prod ucts, so it’s important that you know the difference. Fibers clas sified as “reprocessed wool” in clude wool made from scraps of knitted, woven, or felted fabrics ipanufactured for the first time which have never been used or worn before being reduced to yam again. They are usually taken from scraps left from the cutting table and mill ends. While the fibers are somewhat broken and shortened in reprocessing, they keep enough of their orig inal qualities to give you a serv iceable utility fabric. “Re-used wool,” on the other hand, is made of fabrics which have been worn. This classifica tion covers the material made from rags, old clothing, and other used and worn wool products picked up by rag dealers. These rags are cleaned and sorted ac cording to the color and type of wool, then shredded into fibers and processed chemically. It’s then almost always blend ed with stronger new wool for used in utility fabrics. It stands to reason that the longer this used wool has been worn, the fewer natural qualities it will have left. And there is no way which we, as consumers, can judge the amount of this damage. However, the price for re-used woolens is usually substantially lower than for the virgin or re processed wool products. Many mothers are finding that it’s wise to buy children^ snow suits made of re-used wool since the gar ments often are outgrown before they wear out. So when you come across these terms on the labels, you’ll know that virgin or new wool is of the best quality and the fiber has never been processed in any way. The term wool or all wool tells you that the fibers may have been processed up to weaving or felt ing but not ¡beyond. Re-processed wool, however, may contain fi bers which have been woven into cloth, but never made into a gar ment. The least durable of the fibers are in re-used wool. They come from old rags and we have no way of telling how worn the fibers were. But as I said before, they are generally strengthened somewhat with more durable fi bers and serve a definite purpose Perhaps the two main types of material made from wool fibers need a bit of explanation, too. Anyway I’ve had several ques tions about it. They are woolens and worsteds, which incidentally is pronounced without the “r,” even though it’s there. The main differences in these two materials is the type of fiber used and the spinning and finishing processes. Worsteds are made from longer and finer yarns, are combed and spun so that the fibers lie smooth and parallel, and are often fin ished without a nap. The yarns for woolens are spun from shorter fibers which, in stead of being parallel are criss crossed in every direction while being spun. This gives a softer, more fuzzy appearance and they are often napped to emphasize this feature. Some of the popular worsted are gabardines, serges, and co vers, which drape and tailor well and are especially resistant to dirt and wrinkles. Woolens are found more often in the heavier weight materials for men’s and women’s suitings and coatings, in tweeds and other casual types of fabrics. Regardless of- which “grade” of fiber you choose, one important thing to remember is to look for the label.

A “Foundation Program” is established for each district school based on total number of pupils belonging. The law establishes the amount of money per pupil belonging to elementary school for each of two categories, isolat ed school and non-isolated schools. An isolated school is one which is so situated that it is impracti cal to bend the children to any other school because of distance, road conditions, etc. Non-isolated schools are granted a lower min imum allowance than isolated schools. High school programs are established in a similar man- CHARGED WITH ASSAULT Harvey Withington of Dillon was charged with third degree as sault by County Attorney Gilbert after an altercataion at a local night club last week and pled guilty before Justice of the Peace W.

The foundation program is not necessarily the school budget since it is not varied or influenced by the needs or projects of the school but is set by law as a given amount of money per pupil be longing, varying only with school population and the location of the school. 2. The income and operational funds available within each dis trict are determined, including the five-mill levy in each district, and all miscellaneous income from the state, interest on in come, forest reserve, etc. 3. From the total income of the district a “Reserve Fund” is set up for the purpose of operating schools from July 1 to 1/he De cember apportionment each year. This reserve fund may be an amount up to 35 per cent of the school’s foundation program for the current school year and it is replenished each succeeding year to the total established this year, i. e. the reserve fund amount as established for the school year 1949-1950 is permanently fixed as the reserve fund for the school. 4. ' After the reserve fund has been taken from the district in come for schools, the balance of the income figure is divided by the amount of the foundation pro gram to determine the percentage of the foundation program which the district itself can finance. 5. The county then adds all dis trict foundation program amounts to establish the county founda tion program. 6. The county then figures its total income, based on the county ten-mill levy and all other in comes for schools. 7. From the county ten-m ill levy that portion of the school transportation expense to be paid by the county is subtracted. ’(The county pays one-third of the transportation bill, the state and district each paying a third.) The remainder of the levy plus all other incomes is the fund from which distribution to each dis trict is made. 8. The county divides this net income figure by the amount of the county foundation program to determmine the percentage of the program that can be financed by the county, except as shown next. 9. If any district has a higher percentage of self-help than the county percentage of ability, that district is ineligible for county or state aid. All ineligible districts are eliminated from the county list of foundation programs. • 10. The countv foundation pro gram is now refigured, leaving out all ineligible districts, the new total is divided into the net coun ty income to establish a new county percentage of ability to pay. This process is repeated un til all remaining district percent ages are less than the final coun ty percentage. 11. Each district percentage (for eligible districts) is subtract ed from the county percentage giving the net percentage of coun ty funds which that district will receive for school operations. 12. If the county and eligible districts are unable to finance the foundation programs, the state will aid up to 90 per cent of the foundation program. For in stance, if the total county and dis trict funds are 80 per cent of the foundation programs, the state will supply 10 per cent of the programs. 13. After the district, county and state have supplied 90 per cent of the foundation program, the remaining 10 per cent may be raised by a levy made by the county commissioners, without a special public vote. The law also permits a 20 per cent increase in the foundation program.for ele mentary schools and a 15 per cent increase for high schools if the approved budget of the school calls for more than the founda tion program. This allowable in crease can be added to the special levy made by the commissioners if the county, district and state funds are insufficient for the pro gram. Previous to the time the new law went into effect, the method of apportioning county funds for district schools was as follows: After the report of collections was made by the county treasur er, the county levy for schools was divided on the basis of the average number belonging in each district school as of the pre vious June 30. ♦ LEGALS • NOTICE TO CREDITORS In the District Court of the Fifth Judicial District of the State of Montana, In and Foi* the County of Beaverhead.
