SHEEP-There was a very decent run OF
sheep here this morning for a Friday and
the market as a whole was in very salts
factory condition. There was a good
demand and everything in sight met with
very ready sale, so that the barn was
cleared by 2 o'clock in the morning. AS
to prices ii might be described as a good
strong market. Lambs which brought 1915
yesterday sold up to $3.50 today and lambs
which brought $40 on Wednesday reached
3T.6 today. Mexican ewes sold up as high
as $50. There were no choice wethers
or yearlings to make a test Of the market.

Wheat had a better tone at the opening,
due mainly to firner cables and bullish
news from Argentina. On a whole the sit
uation remains the same and all advices
point to a scarcity of wheat as the crop
year draws toward the close.
Corn Ia moderately strong, due to a
strong feeling and obstinate backing from
all country holders.
wheat was stronger and advanced on
fir1ner cables and more damage reports
from all sections OF the winter wheat belt.
Receipts are decreasing and should be
come still higher and this will strengthen
values. May wheat opened at A.lO and

COLUMBIA VALLEY
CROP CONDITIONS

A light shower of rain visited the
valley Sunday morning, which though
not adding materially to the moisture
already in the ground, was quite ben
eficial in that for few days follow
ing the weather was cool and cloudy.
In fact, the whole spring weather has
been quite cold. more so than ordi-
narily, and while there has been con-
siderable wind so far, the winds have
been cold and not the warm, dry
winds that are a menace to the crops.
These cold winds have not materially
depleted the moisture that the ground
contained from last fall and winter,
but have been instrumental in blow
ing much of the wheat out OF the
sandy strip south of town, but only in
the sandy strip Several reports have
come in in regard to the seasons
wheat crop and in the hard ground
a splendid crop is reported. some re-
ports stating that the grain was
never better in these fields.

STOP TARIFF AGITATION
SAYS JAMES, ]. HILL.

'All eyes are turned on Washing
ton" said Hill, land all lines of in
dustrial life are waiting to see what
is to be done with the tariff Some
people seem to think that legislation
will cure toothache, set broken limbs
or make crops. 1t can't do it. Let
the tariff alone and let the wheels of
progress begin to move. Talk on
legislation here in Washington keeps
people in suspense: it makes them
forget their business and hope for
some legislative cure-all. What we
want is to have tariff agitation over
with and let the people go back to
work and aid the great wheels of
progress to turn. Then things will
begin to hum. The outlook is good
in all directions and l expect to see
a great era of prosperity as soon as
the lawmakers will let us have it.
