Most of Supply of
1916 Has Been Sold

PORTLAND. Ore, June 26.-Attle
of the 1916 clip OF wool Of the Pacific
northwest remains to be sold. The
season for selling is about over and
returns are now available.
In the main wool growers have re-
ceived the highest prices ever known
for their fleeces quality considered
Not only has the market been active
and higher than ever before for the
hulk Of the supplies but the clips
have been sold sooner.
So great has been the demand from
wooden mill interests that little stock
has remained unsold to await the reg
ular wool auctions. In this early sell
ling growers probably made a mis-
take because it will influence the ac-
tions Of future seasons.
The auction system has up to this
time been the best method Of selling
wool because of the fact that it as
sembled at leading centers the bulk Of
the clip Of the three states. By get
ting all the wool into a great bulk
buyers were able to save money on
their buying expense and this was
generally added to the bids they offer
ed for the fleece on auction.
Until the entrance of the central
warehouse system at Portland the
auction system Of selling was far the
best for the growers as well as the
buyers. Now with two large wool
warehouse companies firmly estab-
lished at Portland and with the new
system of grading in vogue, there is
little doubt if more growers had pat
ronized the warehouses here, still bet
ter prices would have been obtained
As matters stand the receipts Of wool
at the two central warehouses here
were far greater than last year, which
was the first season the new plan was
tried.
Sales made by the Portland ware
house interests have proven beyond
single doubt that this system Of SELL
ing is far preferable to either the au-
ction or the direct system. To the
producer the warehouse system of SELL
ing is best because they not only get
their wool graded here but buyers are
able to secure Just what qualities and
quantities they desire. This means
the elimination of the buying Of sup
plies they do not need and thus ex-
pense is saved. This accounts in a
measure for the fact that they are
willing to pay more for wool here than
elsewhere.

GOOD PRICES RECEIVED
AT WOOL SALE. AT BEND

BEND, Ore, June 26.-Thirty-one
cents per pound was the highest price
paid Friday by buyers at the wool
sale held in Bend, only a small guam
tity went at this price. More than
126. 900 pounds were sold at prices
that averaged about "a cents per
pound,
The highest price paid for a clip
Of any weight was paid to the Will
liams Land and Livestock company
The price was 2S 3-4 cents per
pound. OF the $4,000 pounds, $4,000
pounds are unsold and the remainder
has been contracted at prices averag-
ing 21 cents per pound. The bidding
among the buyers was keen. Charley
Green. representing the Botany Wool
Mills of Boston, obtained all but one
clip at fancy prices.
The sheep men who were present
at the sale and sold their clips are
pleased with the prices they have re-
ceived. Central oregon wool, being
of fine grade, does not bring the top
notch prices. The prices paid are
the best that central oregon wool has
ever been paid.

SEVERE DEPRESSION
SHOWN in LIVESTOCK

PORTLAND, Ore, June 26.-Ihls
has been a week of severe depression
ali through the livestock trade al
North Portland. In practically every
line the weakness was the most
marked of the season to date, al
though total receipts were but slightly
increased.
The action of the cattle trade in
quoting severely low prices was TO be
expected in view of the overfilling OF
the trade here and elsewhere during
recent weeks by California shippers
The market was so intensely weak
during the latter part of the trading
that il was hard TO definitely place
top quotations.

 1t was our pleasure to spend an hour and a half with these good people. It was not a case of the ''Prodigal Sons Return. :" but nevertheless the good eats were soon prepared and we en- joyed the hospitality of this good and truly southern home to the fullest.
 Chalmers and his father seem- ed to vie with each other in showing us the old homestead, its excellent crops, fine jersey cattle, good horses and mules, and even the large artificial pond made in the green pasture for the cattle and live stock. MT. Thompson has only one acre of his crop in cotton, but it is some of the best we have seen and he stated he would make a bale on the acre which we do not doubt. His corn is some of the best and be also believes in growing plen- ty of potatoes, peanuts and other such products of which he has a nice crop on his place.
 While there we also had the pleasure of meeting MT. and Mrs. Raymond Bufford who reside in a beautiful new home a short distance from the latter's parents MT. and Mrs. Thompson. At 7:20 we said goodbye" and started on our return home, con- ing the Bay Road via Levesque and Wynne. Returning from Wynne we came the southern route crossing the Winters Bridge at Languile River.
