WOOL PRICES AND coNDI-
ITloNS OF MARKET At PRESENT

Wool is being delivered at the
QuarleslMonk warehouse in Salmon
for storage. Prices are not quoted
in any of the markets but conditions
are not considered unusually bad,
only what NAV be expected in every
Presidential year.
Since. November, 1918. the prices
lOf wool have declined in comparison
with the same month of the preced-
ing year. The highest average price
reached was go cents per pound in
March and April, 1918, since which
ure as 47.9 cents in April, 1919. In
January, 1918, the average price was
5S.1 cents; January, 1919, 55.2 cents;
and in January, 1920, 53.3 cents. The
producers price of 16.7 cents per
pound in 1918 advanced to So cents
in 1918, and fell to 81 cents in 1919.
These figures are in accordance with
reports received by the Bureau or
Crop Estimates of the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
Hugh Sproat, president of the Ida
no Woolgroyers' association, has the
following review of the wool market
Presidential years are invariably
off years in so far as business is con
cerned, and the present drive at the
High Cost of Living takes no account
of the high cost Of production. The
wool clip is the first product of the
farm to reach the markets, and deter
mination on the part of growers to
obtain living price for their pro-
duce may as well be fought out on
this article as on any other of our
staple farm products. Profiteering
has been carried on to an extent new
er before heard of. but the farmer
and the stockgrower are not in this
class. The profteering is done in
the handling of our produce. and ev-
Iery effort TO lessen the number OF
handlers between consumer and pro-
ducer should be encouraged.
Growers concerns for the handling
lof our wool are seeking wool on con
lsingnment. and in the absence of a
direct sale at prices approaching the
cost of production, they should have
our patronage. On no consideration
should We take any stock in the
statements OF the representatives OF
Speculative houses, when they assert
they are better equipped TO handle
our wool on consignment. That may
be all true, but they are working for
lother interests than the woolgrower

BOND ISSUE Is
FAVORED, BUT.

A meeting in the interest of pro.
noting another bond issue for Lem.
nj county roads was held at the on.
era house Monday evening, having
been called in response to general
requests made to the Lemhi Business
Mems association. Unfortunately
the attendance was not large owing
to the exceedingly busy season now
at hand for farmers. All the persons
present, however, seemed to favor
the proposition, with the reservation
that it should be well understood be.
forehand that the spenders of the
bond proceeds are to be men of the
right sort of integrity to handle pub
lie funds.
DR.. Stratton, president of the asso.
citation, introduced the speakers, who
included Allen C. Merritt, Ray Wick
ham, G. H. Heidner, Harry B. Sum-
mers, Fred L. Viel and others.
The hit of the evening was made
in the statement by one of the speak
ers that the people of Lemhi county
might be induced to vote a bond is
sue of 100000 provided the handling
and expenditure of that large amount
could be placed in safe hands for ex-
penditure-"a good, honest-to-G God
he-man," who would not divert it or
misapply any part thereof. 1t was
explained that the county would be
able to secure the expenditure in this
way not only it's own appropriation of
100000, but the state and federal
would come through
each with as much more, SO that a
total expenditure of 100000 would
be made for good roads in the coun.
ty. Moreover all the roads thus i'm,
proved would automatically become
thereafter a charge upon the state
treasury for maintenance, just as
the Salmon river highway is soon to
become.

No PROSPECT Of Cheap Sugar.

BOISE. June 6.-There is a slight
hope of a reduced price in sugar be
fore the canning season, according to
Max Mayfield. on account OF the
large amount of foreign sugar which
lis to be imported.
The American Refining company
has quoted sugar for September and
October delivery at $3.50 which
would mean a retail price of $3.50
per hundred. but this viii come TOO
late for the canning season.
Sugar at San Francisco is now
selling at $3.50 which means that II
will retail in Boise for $3.50. Boise
dealers are selling sugar at the same
proportionate profit. but bought at a
cheaper price, so that IL is still pos
sible to get beet sugar at FIVE pounds
and half for one dollar. at the pres
ent time.

Not One of His Specialties.

w. NJ Friedorff, energetic business
man of Leadore, is hard to stop at
anything he undertakes. He just
keeps on going ahead. The other
day Mr.. Friedorff took seat in a
town auto truck which was standing
quietly on the street awaiting its
owner and regular driver. AS if
taking on something of the Friedorff
electric go-ahead-ativeness the little
machine started off. Mr.. Freidorff
knew how to steer but that was all
so he kept II going round and round
the block, meanwhile calling for
somebody to jump aboard and stop
him in his purposeless career. This
Leadore business man is successful
in all his undertakings but he feels
that running truck is not one OF his
specialties.

YOUNG TROUT AND YOUNG
PHEASANTS FOR LEMHI co.

! Forty thousand lingering Brook
trout were received from the state
hatchery at Hayspur on Wednesday
iast Dy the Salmon rifle club, for dis
tributing in Lemhi creeks. The rife
club has a splendid membership of
real sports who have found a kin,
dred soul in Otto NJ Jones, the state
nsh and game warden. Mr.. Jones
from the very first introduction to
this club found it composed of the
right sort of fellows and he told
them Salmon should have better
treatment than in years past by the
state department. This shipment of
young trout is not to be the last even
for the present distributing season.
Later we are to get a lot of Rain
bows
! Not long ago the Rife club asked
Mr.. Jones where Chinese pheasant
eggs could be secured for the intro
duction of these birds here. He took
lively interest in that connection and
was able to offer suggestions as to
where the eggs might be secured.
AS result about two hundred eggs
of pheasants are now in process of
incubation under Salmon hens of the
domestic variety.
While the eggs cost s24 per hun
dred the young trout are given free
ly to the organization.
The trout were distributed at Car
men, Twelve Mile. Leadore, Lemhi,
