IDAHO wooLMEN GET
so CENTS FOR CLIP

Thirty-fve cent WOOL
That is the prediction of wool men
now in touch with the market They
claim that there are many instances
where wool has been sold the past two
weeks for 30 cents that the top price
reached will probably be 35 cents and
that the clip for Idaho, Utah and Wyo-
ming is better this year than it has
been for many years.
While local sheepmen claim that the
expense of growing wool is increasing
the high prices promised for this year
means that growers n Idaho are now
clipping cleaner wool than for some
wears past and that many of them are
holding out for topnotch prices which
il appears they are going to get.-Capi-
