' Sheepmen' In Eastern Oregon have never experienced a better outlook In the wool industry than this year. The wool market continues firm, with a slight Increase In prices, and the elli this year Is the best almost In tho state's history. The past winter has been a most favorable one for the range, grass being plentiful and the sheep in good condition for shearing. The wool Is of the finest quality, one of the re&ults of the splendid condi tion of the sheep. The recent rains, though tying up shearing In Umatilla county, as well as Morrow and Giiltam counties, has brought joy to the hearts of the flockmaster, for now ample range is assured until the opening of the forest reserves for summer graz ing. . - Dan P; Smyths, on a recent visit to Arlington, brought back some sam ples of wool which he declares are as good as any he has ever raised, one staple measuring seven Inches. The wool, owing to the abundant rains Is very clean and should hp nn im. portiint factor with buyers of the Ore gon clip. Shearers declare it Is ' as clean as the Montana wool, where lit tle sand is found In the sheep sections of that state. Pendleton Live Wire. 1 Change of Ownership. .; A. N.
