I do not lilume the ml Union (or going abroad last year for material. He was able to Import on a 72-cent basis clean wool for which the speculator on this side wan demanding more money. If ho paid the speculator 74 cents this week, the latter promptly advanced his price the next. An Impression exists that the market Is being manipulated by the American Woolen Co., which contracts about r.O per cent of the loom capn- city of the United States, and many growers are declaiming lliut a bear campaign Is invariably Inaugurated nt shearing time. This is entirely er roneous as last year shearing time witnessed n boom. The present bad market Is not of recent development, a:- symptoms of demoralization were detected late last summer ond con ditions have been growing worse ever since. I regret that Mr. rinchot, In his recent speech at St. Paul, attack ed the American Woolen Co. in such scathing terms, declaring the tariff worthless to the grower and consumer alike. Men of Mr. Pinrhot's class are doubtless well-intentioned but their enthusiasm runs away with their Judgment. Modern conditions necessi tate vast aggregations of capital, such as the American Woolen Co., nnd such aggregations need curbing, but wholesale and unqualified denunci ation Is questionable at best. As I look at It the American Woolen Co. Is controlled bv the brightest talent in the trade and thnt talent, surveying present and prospective market con ditions, concluded to apply a little trade pressure. It wos realized thai wool could be bought high at any time and that good judgment dictated a policy of playing for lower prices. But for the boom a year ago this .YS would probably not have been ne cessary. Mlllmen inaugurated n hand-to-mouth policy last summer and have been pursuing it ever since simply because, In their judgment, speculators who got control of the 1909 clip overplayed the game.

He advised the women to work up the chapter house hero with all Its accompanying advantages and gav them sound business aavtce regarding the location to be selected and its title and advised them to get into touch with the Commercial association as soon as possible, laying before ths chapter a plan for the accomplish ment of that object.

She also touched on the various correspondence courses. Including music, art, lan guage and many others which are free to members of the league. Walla Walla is fortunate In the pos session of such a wide-awake, effi cient lady as the representative of the league In that city.

JUST TRY "Fruit-Malt," The Invigorating Thirst-Qyenchcr BEWMMfltai'gii mini it i uawmF j THREATEN 10 EXPORT AMERICAN WOOL 4 IVo-iou Dculcrs Disgruntled at Conditions on Tills Side of Atlantic. The follow ing interesting account of j w market conditions In America j-nii Europe is taken from a recent Nsue of th; Breeder' Gazette, pub lished in Chicago: Imagine a nation raising about 60 jcr cent of the wool it consumes pro posing to export us a relief measure! Vet this is what Boston dealers are : r.-;it ninp News from that wool center Is that owing to a stagnated market this side of the Atlantic con signments of domestic staple are to he made to London where periodical wiles are active and prices higher than here obviously an abnormal situation. Trade experts are diagnosing the .-iluatlon variously. They all agree, however, that presenl wool market depression Is the natural sequence of rhe boom of the first half of 1909. Just a year ago the man with a clip of unsold wool was courted by the dealer who was then in highly specu lative humor. The Incidental boom was short-lived. Manufacturers re fused to permit speculators to hold them up and went abroad for staple tc keep their looms running, the re sult being displacement of a consid erable proportion of the domestic clip of 1909. The American market- be gan falling when manufacturers be gan Importing and has been getting worse ever since. The trouble with the wool market now Is that specu lators are carrying a lot of last year's staple, acquired at high prices, and manufacturers are gunning strenu ously for them. Will the exportation of American staple reach any considerable vol ume? A. J. Knollln, of Idaho, thinks not. "It Is an unnatural trade move ment and such movements are ephe. meral," he said to The Gazette rep resentative. American mlllmen will not permit much domestic staple to go to London sales for the reason that they cannot fetch It back as cheaply as they can buy It here. The threat to export was doubtless conceived to force trading on this side of the At lantic. My own opinion Is that a trading basis for the season will soon be established. That It will be lower than last year goes without saying. I notice some activity In the West. Already I have been wired a bid of 17 1-2 cents for my clip. Unless I get 19 cents I shall order It Into storage at Chicago. Some sales have already been made in Idaho at 18 cents against 23'i.24 cents a year ago." Describing present conditions Mr, Knollln said: "A year ago middle men were buying wool at almost liny pi Ice within reason the grower saw fli to ask. Xow eastern concerns have a swarm of solicitors In the field seeking consignments on which they can arrange advances of 10(8)12 cents. This is good policy on the part of eatscrn dealers who have everything to gain by getting control of the clip, as with the new season's staple In his possession he will be in better shape to put a price on the wool, ho carried over, which must be sold nt a loss In any event. The dealer gets the commission on consignments anyhow and that Is so much money to the good. Meanwhile co-operative ware houses are filling up and If the mar ket picks up as the season advances an era of warehouse construction will he Inaugurated In the West. The Chicago warehouse, which received only 7,000,000 pounds last year, Is getting 25,000,000 pounds this rea son, taxing Its capacity, and the co operative warehouse Idea Is getting a good try-out." "Manufacturers will soon begin to show Interest In the market," pre dicted Mr. Knollln, "for the reason that they have been buying sparingly and the same policy has been pursued by wholesalers, cutters and retailers.
