10、 trade for this purpose,particularlyin connection with the determination of clean wool fiberpresent by Test Method D584.The procedure in Test MethodD1113 is used by the U.S.Customs Service for the determi-nation of the vegetable matter in importations of raw wool onwhich the allowance for loss of wo
