WOOL-CLASSING IN TECHNICAL SCHOOLS.
Mr Aker3, a large sheep-owner in the Manawatu district, says the "Manawatu Times," was so pleased with the way the PaJinerston Technical School students did their day's wool-classing on his place at Tokomaru, that he has engaged two of them to class next month whan the ewes are to be shorn. As a result of this year's experience, Mr Opie, director of the school, proposes next year to arrange for the students to class at various shads around Palmerston. It is hoped that a number of farmers' sons will join the classes next season, as the knowledge they would acquire would assist in getting better prices for their wool.
