sheep on Monday at II cts. Mr.. Good
ale's boys take full care of his sheep.
They have been successful with the band

l.. Christensen and Geo. Thorn sen, of
Belfeld, sold their clip, 81 sacks, to w.
/ A. Dupee at " cts. j. Kuntson of the
same place also got the same price from
the same party.
W. A. Dupee bought the Glen Ullen
wool-I65,ooo pounds-on Thursday at
I6A Cts; dead wool 10 cts. Mr.. Dupee
has hadthis wool for several years lin fact
each year since the people combined
| there and demanded more than the mar
ket price, which resulted in their con-
signing and 8 or 10 months after getting
returns at 6 cts. per pound.
Dickinson wool brin rs the highest
price of any wool in North Dakota, and
is selling today at from 2 to 3 cts. per
pound better than the woods of Eastern
Montana. Last week Nichols, Dnpee &
Co. bought 100000 pounds of wool at
Glendive, including Frank w. Smiths
fine clip, at IS cts. per pound. 1t is like
ly, these people sold too soon and could
have received l6 cts. had they held on a
little.
The Cota-Burgister- Cook wool came in
this week. w. A. Dupee bought the clip
without seeing it at TX cts. E. E. Cook
who has charge of this band of sheep is
we'll satisfied with the success of the
business the past three years. This fall
the sheep are to be divided and Mr.
Cooks share will represent a snug sum
Of money.
The Boston wool sales for one week in
June amounted to 100000 pounds do
mestic and 100000 pounds foreign
against a total of $4,000 pounds for the
corresponding week Of a year ago. Thi:
shows that the wool market is strong anG
active. Manufacturers, big and small
are buying extensively. The tendency
of wool prices is upward and there is nc
reason why every wool.grower should no
get a good price for his clip.
c. H. Pearl sold his clip, around 3o,ooc
pounds, to w. A. Dupee at TX cts
Only a part of the wool is off and it viii
be nearly the middle Of July before the
last of it is delivered in Dickinson. Mr.
Pearl got his W price $4,000 to binc
the trade) and he is not finding any fault
but if he had waited a few days he coulc
easily have taken a quarter more.
Last year F. M. Smith of Broncho con.
signed about 5000 pounds of wool to the
Aurora Securing Mills, of Aurora, ILL.,,
and 2 weeks ago Mr.. Smith received
check for his clip, which, to his great sur
prise, brought the net price of his WOO
down to a fraction less than 10 cents PEI
pound. Mr.. Smith was offered IS cts
per pound for his wool here before hi
consigned, and clips of the same grad.
sold as high as IS cents, SO it looks a!
though he had been done up by tn.
Aurora outfit. Besides at the time whel
the remittance was made, the sale sup
posed to have been effected-early il
June-wool was advancing very much il
price. Mr.. Smith had no advances OF
his clip. He had not asked it and wa
not rendered it. The Aurora Mills neve
had but a few consignments from thi
section and it is very sure that they will
never get any more. Mr.. Smith was il
Dickinson Wednesday with 5000 pound
of wool-the same as his 'o8 product
and the first offer he received was ~ ct!
and the probabilities are that he will &c
TX cts. So it is evident that the Auror
folks swindled him out Of 5 or E cts. pc
pound over and above a fair profit fc
handling the wool.
