Enterprise Man Disposes of His Wheat For $1.25 This , Week, .Two thousand bushels of wheat were contracted this weak by 'Georgo P. Faught to be soW to the Elgin For warding company at $1.25 a bushel. Delivery will be made next week, says the Enterprise Chieftain. Mr. Faught for several years has been a shrewd seller of Ills wheat. He has made a practice of holding it in the fall, and waiting for ' the high spring prices. -Thus he has got 20 to 25 cents a bushel more than others who Bold at threshing time. In the middle of last summer he conclud ed wheat was going up before spring and said- he would not sell until, he fixed the price at $1.25. Thie price was fixed the middle of the week and he was called on to "come through." Wheat has been close to $1.50 in Portland! this week, and the larger operators expect it to go still higher.
