The Markets


TO reenpture that city.
Fifty thousand pounds of~wool were
sold at Echo Wednesday. 1t was tho
clip from mutton sheep and the price
is Known but is said to be high. a
little contracting has been done in
Eastern Oregon during the past week
most of it at 10 cents. Clips along the
Columbia were sold during the week
to the amount of $4,000 pounds at
prices ranging from 1879 to IS cents,
Wheat is not moving but prices are
firm. Oats and barley were weak AMI
prices slightly off, The poultry sup.
ply is light. Hens are quoted at II
cents and broilers at 30. Eggs refuse
to go below 10 cents, the cold storage
demand holding them firmly at that
figure. Dealers could sell all they had
at that price but could not boost the
price a fraction of cent as that
seems to be the cold storage limit. Some
speculation is indulged in as to the
price of eggs next winter as it is
pointed out that while last year many
eggs went into cold storage at Is cents
and sold during the winter above so
the additional cost this year should
send the price next winter above that
of last year at least ten cents.
