Umatilla County WOolgrOwers

Though contracts for the wool clip in
several counties have already been
made, advance sales for Umatilla coun.
ty wool have been very light, only few
small lots having been contracted for
up to the present time. Umatila county
woolgrowers consider it inpracticable
to sell in advance and as the quality of
wool raised here Is equal to the best
there is never any danger of disposing
of clips below the current market
prices.
Sheepmen in this county predict bet
ter prices, both for wool and mutton
this season than usual, and accordingly
all will hold for the best quotations
which as general rule, obtain during
the sales days held periodically during
the ason Wool in the interior coun-

woolraisers there are selling without
hesitation as those prices ate as good
as any offered at any time during last
year. Advices from Lane county say
that the 1905 wool clip has been begun |
to move at Lively rate ard during the
past week prices have jumped from Is
cents to 16 3-4 cents a pound, showing a
tendency to climb still higher. Several
large clips there have been contracted
at 16 cents and if the present prices con-
tinue much longer it is believed that
nearly all the clip of the county will be
sold in advance. The recent sales have
been of great benefit, it is stated, to the
