MOHAIR SOLD WELL
Polk County Pool Brought Thirty
Four Cents at Public Auction.

The Polk County Mohair Association
disposed of it's pool Of 10000 pounds Of
choice mohair at public auction last
Friday afternoon. The handsome
price Of "a cents per pound was realized
for the entire lot Sealed bids were
opened first, but none of these were
satisfactory, and the mohair was then
offered at open sale. Seven bidders
were present and the bidding was
spirited. The successful offer of 81
cents was made by II. l., Fenton, of
Dallas. The growers are we'll satisfied
with the price received, as it is several
cents above current quotations.
The Rural Northwest of April Is
says every few individual sales have
been made in Oregon and these have
been at about 80 cents. Growers who
have asked for offers have been quoted
from 81 to 81 cents, and local buyers
in some Of the districts where good
hair is raised have been paying 81
cents. The Portland buyers say that
the local dealers who are doing this
can not unload on them at present ex-
cept at loss as the present market
in Boston do not Justify
more than 30 or at the outside 81 cents
in Portland. These statements ap-
pear to be justified by Boston quota
tions but the market will not really
open until the Dallas sale today. AS
a general rule that pool sells for from
one to two cents above the Oregon
it is the largest pool in Ore
gon andis considered to be better than
average quality.
