The Good And The
(Continued from Pag* B 5)
The club donated a substantial
amount of the earnings to send four
county 4-H’ets to the national
meat judging competition in Kan
sas City.
Both girls take piano lessons.
For several years, Ashley had
taken clarinet and oboe lessons.
Amber also takes dance and art les
sons. The sisters ate avid readers
and their mother often needs to
confiscate flashlights taken to bed
for the purpose of continual read
ing instead of sleeping.
Both girls share a job cleaning
an older person’s home. The home
is filled with antiques and interest
ing stuff that fascinates Amber.
Her older sister has to constantly
remind her that they arc there to
clean, not to admire the home’s
furnishings.
Because Ashley is disciplined in
studying, she is able to fulfill her
duties as state lamb and wool
queen and participate in many
other activities.
Although difficult, Ashley con
tinues to encourage lamb con
sumption. Here arc some of her
favorite recipes.

All About Wool
It is true that wool is comfort
able to wear in both warm and
cool climates?
Yes Wool helps regulate body
temperature because it is an
absorbent fiber When the air is
cool and damp wool absorbs
moisture and keeps a layer of
dry, insulating air next to the
skin. When it’s warm, that same
absorption capacity takes up
perspiration and keeps insulat
ing dry air next to the
skin, .making the body’s natural
cooling system work better
What about the flammability
of woolen fabrics.
Wool is the only fiber that
naturally resists flaming
Unlike many artificial fibers,
which often melt and stick to the
skin when on fire, wool usually
smolders or chars instead of
bursting into flame. Although
wool will burn under intense
fire, it normally self-extinguish
es when the flame source is
removed A hot cigarette ash on
a woolen skirt, for example, usu
ally goes out without damage
because wool doesn’t melt and
will not support combustion.
Do all wool fabrics shrink if
washed?
Some do, some don’t. Woolen
fabrics that have not been treat
ed for washability will shrink
because wool has a central hol
low core made up of overlaps
like shingles on a roof or scales
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 3, 1999-B7
on a fish Agitate these untreat
ed fibers in soap and hot water
and they interlock so that each
fiber can’t spring back to its
original length, thus the fabric
shrinks
Chemists have developed’a
mild, thin resin which is spread
evenly over the fiber surface
before spinning, It eliminates
the friction between the over
lapping scales of the central core
of each fiber and eliminates
shrinkage
How can I tell which wools
won't shrink?
Just look for the Superwash®
mark The mark certifies that
the fabric in the garment has
been treated for machine washa
bihty and dryability under strict
standards set by The Wool
Bureau, Inc
How can wool shed rain and
absorb moisture ?
Wool is slow to absorb drops
of water yet readily absorbs
moisture in vapor form Each
wool fiber has a waxhke outer
skin or epicuticle This thin pro
tective film acts like your rain
coat to shed even a moderate
shower In addition most woolen
and worsted fabrics have a hair
like surface which encourages
raindrops to run off much like
a bird’s feathers On the other
hand, wool fibers are hygroscop-
