ExampleMeaning
Yeah yeah. Another puzzle part that you won't know is last year- well I'm licensed through the Canadian-Co-operative-Wool-Growers. And all that means is to take the wool off a sheep in one piece and leave as much skin to grow next year's, eh?
A place to sell wool.
ExampleMeaning

A place to sell wool.
And then you'd roll them all up into a ball and keep each- each fleece separate. And then the what they call in Carleton-Place the wool-growers, you've maybe heard of them, eh. And that you'd sell out there, get a better money for it.
A place to sell wool.
