Paying Industries
For Enterprise

h, A wool securing plant ought to pay
well in Enterprise and certainly would
be Of great benefit to the owners of
sheep and indirectly to the county, said
E. B. Knapp, late of Coleman, Mich :,
who recently located in Enterprise.
At present the wool crop OF Wallowa
county is rated at only from 80 to 40
per cent wool, the buyers making a
very liberal estimate OF the amount Of
grease and dirt. In Mt. Knapp's opinion
the rating should be from 40 to SO per
cent.
The price here ranges from II to 20
cents pound. In Boston secured wool
is sold at from So to 72 cents. In other
words the sheep men of Wallowa
county not only lose from the low
rating, but pay the freight OH the grease
and dirt across the continent and the
profits of securing at some plant in the
East. 1t certainly seems reasonable
that securing plant would pay here.
The wool seller would not only receive
higher price per pound but would be
given credit for more pounds. The cost
of sec uring would be paid out in wages
here at home, and the profit on the
operation would also remain here,
building up larger and better market
for all other things the farmers have to
sell.
There is no doubt of such an enter
prise paying if yarn and knitting mills
were run in connection. There are
two Industries in which factoris can
not keep up with orders even running
night and day, and they are the shoe
and knitting industries. Knitting mills
everywhere in the East are over
crowded with orders ard are making
IL. mense profits. The demand for knit
goods has increased in wonderful way
during the last few years, and while
factories have multiplied yet not fast
enough to supply the demand.
A knitting MILL while it requires
expert management and certain
number OF experienced help, can be
started on a smaller scale and with less
capital than a mill making woolen
cloth.
The matter seems promising one for
investigation by the Commercial club
