Some Wool Changing Hands

j. A. Ebaugh, wool buyer for
Hecht, Liebman Il Co.. Boston, has
contracted for about half million
pounds of wool at prices ranging
from Is to 10 GEMS.
Mr.. Ebaugh when interviewed, like
all other buyers, was very reticent
about giving out figures at this date,
fearing the report of prices paid
might give wool growers, whose clips
have not been sold, wrong ideas
about the market value of their wool
the price it would bring. Some of
the tleeces look first class but when
sheared the amount of dirt and
grease cause considerable shrinkage,
hence buying is not SO brisk.

CANADIAN FARMERS ARE
ANXIOUS FOR RECIPROCITY

Ottawa, Ont, March 5.-The feel
ing developing among the agricultur-
lists against the campaign which man
ufacturers are pressing in opposition
for ratification of the trade agreement
with the United States, is indicated
by letter given to the press today
by James Bower, president of the Ca
madam council of agriculture.
The organization is the most extern
sive in Canada. In his letter Mr.. Bow
er said in part:
81 have been impressed with the
notable persistence of those interest
ed in protection in their efforts to mis-
lead the public. 1t is very plain that
a determined effort is being made to
manufacture public opinion adverse to
reciprocity.
ITO me one thing is sure:
knowing, as do, the temper of
the farmers of the Dominion as ex-
pressed through our farmers associa-
tons, demand for recall would be
very quickly made to those who, in de-
fiance of their constituents wishes,
answer to the beck and call of the
protected interests"
