After talking with leading sheep

further increase in the bands will
be shown during the coming season,
With both wool and sheep quoted at
abnormal prices the sheep man is

Little wool remains to be sold in
this section. That already sold has
been disposed of at the highest pri-
ces known here, and buyers Wed with
each other to see which could give
the best quotation.
Portland is well thought of among
woll men here. The operation of the
two wool warehouse companies in
Portland has been a big aid to the
market generally. So say the sheep
men, and they say they have the proof
of it in their bank books.
