WOOL BUYERS OFFERING
soc FOR SPRING CLIP

According to a report from Hum
boldt county wool buyers have enter
ed the field contracting for the 1920
clip at an average price of 30 cents
per pound, price equal to that paid
last season, which was considered the
highest price possible. indications
pointing to a steady decline owing TO
the fact that the government consider
ed allowing the entrance of Australian
wool to the United States markets, an
auction sale being scheduled to be held
at Boston this month.
The reason for this sudden change
of heart on the part of wcol-buying
firms has not yet been learned. 1t is
thought that some means must have
been found to stop the mammoth
British wool auction at Boston. or
perhaps to eonfine them to small
quantities. At any rate. no other rea-
son can be thought of by men in
touch with the situation for the sud
den desire to purchase - the high
price of fifty cents.
Several sheepmen of this locality
were interviewed yesterday but none
of them had as vet received o..ars for
their 1920 clip. but were exceedingly
pleased to learn of the reported price
being paid in Humboldt county.

has driven hundreds of quail from

of feed. Yesterday flock contain
ing over 200 came out of the canyon
near VALLEY Springs. and took up
their abode in the chicken yeard. For
the past week or more, reports from
different parts of the Valley have told
of large focks of quail gathering ON
the farms. Saturday a big flock of the
little game birds had the courage to
alight in an orchard In Gardneryille
feeding on the apples that remained
on the ground
The Commissioners of Douglas
have expended considerable money
during the past several years in I'M
porting quail into this county, and
now urges upon farmers and others
to give cooperation by feeding the
quail as long as the snow remains on
the ground and send bill for the feed
to the county. Several farmers have
reported that Indians had been shoot
ing quail. Anyone having proof of
such instances should communicate
with the sheriff
County Clerk Jepsen has urged the
Record-Courier to give publicity to
this matter in order that the farmers
would be informed that they will be
reimbursed for wheat of other feed
given to the quail. Unless this CO.

ing this Valley with quail.
