WOOL CLIP IS

While the general prediction is
that the wool clip of this spring Will
not be as heavy as expected, nor as
heavy as that of last year, the
"crop" is still coming in and is keep

prise worn out with handling it and
keeping it away from the unloading
wagons. An estimate of the entire
clip that will be stored here is i'm
possible to be made at this time. In
an interview with Manager Knapp
Of the Warehouse company, that gen.
tleman kindly took time from work
that was very pressing to explain
that any estimate approximating the
full clip would be practically impos-
sible now.
The only wool sales day SO Tar

Word came to Enterprise last week
Iof an immensely rich strike of gold
quartz in Wilson Basin. The mes
sage received by q. T. Anderson was
AS follows:
''Lostine, oregon.
Come to the mine at once. Sam
pies of gold are shipped YOU today.
Bring sacks for sacking, as ore is
too valuable to put on dumps"
The message was from John
Henry Wilson, an old miner and a
Wallowa county resident who has
BEN and continues to be enthusiastic
over the outlook for this county as
a mineral producing section.
The Enterprise Press wishes to- be
conservative in all it's statements and
desires rather to understate than to
overstate any matter, when it comes
to boosting
In such a vein of conservatism the
paper viii say: First, the sample
of gold quartz shown a press repre-
sentative is better than sample OF
gold quartz examined by thY same
representative in the Medicine Bow
district of southern Wyoming, which
went over $4,000 gold to the ton.
We do not know, nor do the mine
owners know, just how much of such
gold ore the Big Dick and Little Joe
claims in the group contain. But
the two claims contain at least some
lof it, for some of it was found.
| Mr.. Anderson left the first of the
week for the mine. On his return
he brought samples with him which
show copper glanc in addition to the
gold quartz, a trace of silver, and an
excellent deposit of some of the best
graphite the Press representative has
ever seen. Graphite occurs in zon'

are driving. The hanging wall is OF

THE CORN EXPOSITION.
Shows to be Held in Columbia I'm De-
ceimber.

The South Atlantic States Corn Ex-
position which is to be held in Colum-
bia from December to 8 is attract
ing attention all over the South.
A. d. Hudson of Newberry, the
president of the exposition, has Just
returned from Georgia, where he Sc
cured the cooperation of all of the
papers in that State. Several Geor-
gia papers will offer prizes at the ex-
position.
The following in the Atlanta Jour
nal several days ago, indorsing the
corn exposition, will be of interest:
with a view to improving the
breed and increasing the production
of corn in the South Atlantic States.
great corn exposition will be held
at Columbia, S. c., December SIS.
The farmers Of North and South Car
olina, Georgia and Florida are invit-
ed to take part. The makers of farm
implements and fertilizer are asked
to lend their aid. A liberal and va
ried prize list will be open to contest
ants.
This will be the first corn exposi-
tion in the Souths history and il will
mark a long stride forward in the
sections agricultural enterprise. AS
stimulus to a diversified system of
farming, its influence will be partic-
ularly strong and opportune. Cotton
has heretofore been not only the king
but also tht tyrant of Southern fields.
While it deserves and will doubtless
hold the pre-eminent place among our
crops, it should not exclude attention
from other crops which are essential
to our prosperity and we'll being.
THE Southern farm should be. like
the farms of Europe, self-maintain-
ing. Until recent years the farmer of
this section has found it necessary to
spend the entire proceeds Of his cot
ton crop to buy supplies for the new
year-such elemental supplies as
grain, meat and hay. This is plainly
a wasteful and foolish system IF
Will be discarded as soon as a wide
spread and intelligent interest in corn
breeding is bestirred.
TO arouse such an interest is the
prime object of the South Atlantic
corn Exposition. The project is at
once brilliant and useful. 1t is earn
estly to be hoped that Georgia will be
