WOOL REVIVAL IS

MARKET WILL ADVANCE, SAYS

VIII be Abnormal.

A revival of the sheep industry
in Montana due to higher mar
ket resulting from big wool de-
mands and many forced sales of
last fall is certain, thinks G. A.
Mcintyre of Bozeman, a promin-
ent sheep man of that place.
Ewes are selling at a good figure
now and the price will advance with
the season, he thinks. Others con-
cur in McIntyre's prediction, and
among them is Joseph Chievis, mana
ger of the Pacific Hide and Fur COM
pany.
Many of the larger ranchers sold
off much of the young stock last
fall but to offset this loss the small
er farmers who formerly depended
mainly upon wheat are now going
into sheep raising on a small scale,
said Chievis. A week ago his firm
sold a heavy consignment to a Bos-
ton house on which the net was so

Market Gaining Daily
"The wool market is now the best

.hievis. '"There is a constant sell
ing which has kept the market up
and it is daily gaining in strength"
Another reason Mcintyre looks
forward to a good year is the excel
Ient weather conditions of the win
.er which has enabled sheep men to
carry their flocks through with a
of loss and at the same
line keep them in good condition.
2anchers have managed to care for
heir bands much of the winter with
tut much feeding, and as a result
iheep and lambs are now rated as
10 per cent of normal.
The January figure as given by
George A. Scott, statistician of the
Montana Cooperative Crop Report
ng service, was 100. The figure a
ear ago was 100.
Good Clip in Sight
A good clip Of wool is also ex-
uected as we'll as a large crop of
ambs, for the losses from disease

and other causes have been almost
negligible. All reports indicate that
there are sufficient amounts of feed
to carry stock in satisfactory condi-
ton. With the exception of the high
er regions where stockmen are pre-
pared to feed their bands straight
about one month of feeding has been
necessary. There are only a few To-
calities where a late spring would
bring about an exhaustion of the
available feed, while many sections
apparently have more than will be
needed.
Montana wool brings a greater
price, from three to five cents a
pound more than Washington, Wyo-
ming or Utah wool.

fresh fruit there was none, and
canned fruits were not then on the
market in the east. Vegetables
were scarce. There was plenty Of
beef, and game, deer, elk, moose,
antelope, and mountain sheep could
often be bought, yet none of this
would constitute a feast for a pros

DAY LIFE
IN BANNACK CITY
CONTINUED from Feature Page.1

| went with a party down the can
yon to sec the miners washing ou'
gold, and to visit the little twelve
stamp mill where the quartz was
crushed, and later made into bars
My trip down the canyon was
not SO profitable as one my father
took at the invitation of a couple
of miners. He was initiated into
the method of washing out gold,
and spent a half day in this work.
On returning home he produced
two tiny packages from his vest
pocket, and opening them display
ed the glistening contents. In
those two packages, only a little
larger than the average powder
prescribed by a physician, were
seventy-fiye dollars in gold dust.
He certainly had done well for a
beginner.
There was very little money in
circulation. When a miner made
purchases he threw down on the
counter the stout buckskin purse
that held his gold dust, and the
merchant weighed out the amount
due him, and quite frequently more,
for he had every opportunity to
if he so desired. Gold was
then at a premium; but this was
not allowed the purchaser. If an
article was worth five dollars in
greenbacks, five dollars was paid
in gold.
Provisions, clothing, etc, were
brought by freight or express from
Salt Lake City, or packed in from
west by long trains of burros.
Necessarily prices were high even
.or war time. When A. J. Oliver
& Co. first brought the mail to
Gulch, a dollar was the price
charged for a single letter or paper.
Probably it was not less in Ban
rack. During the flour famine of

WORLDS CHAMPIONS
ALL SET FOR SECOND
ESSAY AT G0NFkL0N

New York, April 13.-Far from hav-
ing it's pennant appetite dulled by the
successive triumphs OF the Yankees
and Giants over the past three seasons,
New York's baseball fandom has mar
shalled itself behind McGraw and Hug
gins in their attempts to set diamond
history by making it four straight flag
victories this season.
Across Brooklyn bridge the third
metropolitan entry, the Dodgers, have
shaped their lineup for vigorous
campaign. but the chance that Wilbert
Robinson's men will escape the second
division is slim.
OF the two Manhattan clubs the
Yankees appear the stronger. with their
their worlds championship lineup IN
tact for opening day next Tuesday with
the Red SoX at Boston. Except to add
reserve strength, including a promis-
ing outfielder in Earle Coombs. Hug
gins has stodd pat on his 1928 club.
He banks upon his all-star twirling
corps to decide the issue again.
The Giants have been substantially
rebuilt by McGraw. who believes he
has acquired new pitching strength in
several rockies, notably Dean. Maun
and Baldwin. besides Terry, promis-
ing first sacker. Oeschger in the box
and Southworth in center field, both. ac-
quired from Boston, also have added
strength, he declares. The National
League champions make their bow to
fandom at the Polo Grounds next Tues.
day with Brooklyn as an opponent.
Brooklyn has bolstered it's infield
with Jones at rtstop and Klugman
at second base, and counts also upon
letter pitching to land the club higher
than in 1928.
