Apple Days Are Numerous.

North Yakima - National apple
days" are becoming numerous, in the
opinion of Secretary r. A. Jennings

MOUNTAIN HOME WOOL GALE
Because Of the small quantity d
wool that changed hands. the drst
sale Of the season held Tuesday At
Mountain Home, was scarcely indica'
tory Of the prices that are to prevail,
Only about 10000 pounds changed
hands, and the highest price paid
was Is SIS cents q pound. This was
paid for only q small clip Of about
5000 pounds.
The lowest price paid was for Me-
rino heavy shrunk wool, and this
brought only bid Of IL cents .
pound. Many refused this price, de
claring It was not high enough. Gen
orally speaking, this price was low
for Merino wool, but 1t Is not . fair
indication OF the bids that may be
expected this season, owing to the
small quantities offered tor sale.
There are about 100000 pounds in
the Mountain Home, district, but not
all Of 1t was offered for sale Tues
day, as some Of the shearing has
not been finished.
The next wool sale Ia to be held at
Weiser on May 20. and it will be
followed by q sale at Midvale on
May 81. At those sales more wool
may be offered, and 1t 10 expected
that better idea OF values for this
season may then be obtained
