Good Prices Expected
for MOhair This Year

Portland, Oregon March "a Goat
shccriug in the valley. which started
last week, has been suspended this
week because Of the rain storms. A
few small lots of mohair have been
shipped in on consignment. but the
market has not yet been established.
Nominal prices for the new elm are
30@3l cents. The undertone of the
market is firm, as might be expected
with wool at a high level.
Private wires received from the East
indicated no change in mohair prices.
Commenting ON market conditions at
Boston. the Commercial Bulletin said:
"Thcre has been a more general in
quiry for mohair in the local market
this week Prices are very firm for
the stocks held here, which are only
moderate. The bulk of the business
has been in Cape hair, for thee best of
which 3G cents has been obtained quite
readily, while less slightly stock is sell
ing at about % cents and inferior lots
at slightly less still.
''There has been some business in
domestic hair as well, but at prices
which show no change from current
quotations.
The market in Yorkshire is still
fairly Keen and prices there are well
maintained on the level of the past two
or three weeks. For Cape Summer
flrsts, 10 3-4d Is reported paid at the
tape.
Alpaca is moving steadily at Liver
pool at very firm prices. y
Boston mohair quotations: Best
combing, 37M4O cents; good combing,
35W37 cents; ordinary cOmbing, 3l0
SO cents; good carding, 30M32 cents;
ordinary combing, 26@2S cents. Cape
tirsts, 34@35 cents; Turkey fair aver
age, 3o@31 cents.
The rains have also stopped wool
shearing in the Yakima Valley, but as
soon as the weather permits, shearing
will be on again in full blast. Buyers
are giving attention to the Yakima sit
uaton, and very active market is
counted upon as soon as shOrn wool is
available there.
There IS nothing doing at present in
Eastern or Central Oregon, as buyers
and sellers cannot agree on prices, and
with such a wide spread between their
ideas of values it looks as if the market
will not open until after shearing next
month.

.GIRST ANNUAL
AUDIT OF STATE
FINANCES MADE

but is for local school purposes, The
state annually pays out of Its gen
eral revenue" approximately s+OO,-
600 towards the support Of the local
schools. Without this state aid'to the
local schools the local district school
levies would be increased to three
and one-half cents and the state levy
for the present year would be ten ana
one-halt cents, instead OF fourteen
cents; for the year 1916. less than
ten cents: and for the year 1917. not
to exceed two and one-half cents.
1.-The expenditures for the years
ending June 30, 1916, and June 80,
1917. are extraordinary, being great
er than the ordinary expenditures,
for the reason that buildings and re-
pairs that should have been complete
ed during the preceding two years
were not commenced on account OF
lack OF funds. Said buildings and
improvements are now being made
and the cost is included in the esti-
mate of expenditures for the years
ending June 30. 1916, and 1917. To
meet the extraordinary expenditures
and the deficit which had accumu-
lated, requires an unusual amount Of
revenue.
1.-THE deficit In the general reve-
nue. Of the state fund originated dur
ing the year 1912 when one-cent
state levy was laid ana the industrial
trouble In the Kanawha valley oc-
Cured which cost the state over
$500, 900 for the maintenance OF law
and order. Sufficient revenue was
not afterwards provided to meet the
growing needs Of the state. together
with the expenditures for mainte-
nance OF law and order and the loss
OF revenue from liquor licenses.
"As stated In the preceding pages
o, this report the state had an ac-
tual deficit July /, 1914, OF $346,000.
This deficit existed before the loss OF
revenue from liquor licenses. hence
our present needs can be attributed
only partly to the loss OF liquor IL
censes."

all purposes Except investment IL

Why Tolerate CataTTh?.

Youhave noticed, no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the
flow Of mucous amazes you that such
objectionable matter could find lodg-
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsidies is
wrong because it continues to slowly
iniure the delicate Innings of the nasal
passages and clog them up.
To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos
trils frequently with solution ofwam
water and salt, insert vaseline on re-
firing, and take spoonful OF SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for one month.
SCOTS acts through the blood to iced
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes

the most valuable service rendered
by the audit is that 1t will make pos
