Farm Products Are
Advancing In Price

The present week has developed
marked advancement in the price of
grain, especially wheat, and wool is
being contracted from the Sleeps back
at so cents in Eastern Oregon.
The wheat market took a sensa-
tional plunge upward in Chicago,
Tuesday, when a gain Of six and a
half cents was recorded on May op-
tions. The continued rise in the price
of wheat, and the jump made on the
Chicago market is received with more
or less elation on the part Of Athena
growers, many of whom believe the
raise at this time portends favorable
indications for good prices for the
coming crop.
1t is believed here that the present
market improvement is based on a
general shortage of wheat through
out the grain producing countries and
especially in the southwest sections
of the United States.
Dispatches would indicate that
leaders in the Chicago trading of
Tuesday are credited with having as
a rule, bought holdings instead of sell
ling out.
In the advancing prices of sheep
and wool, the sheepmen also see much
to be gleeful over. A band of six
thousand sheep was recently sold in
Morrow county at great advance in
price, and at Heppner, W. B. Barrett
sold his 1922 crop of wool on his
sleeps back at 30 cents pound.
The sale provided an advance of 81
per fleece,
