Frank E. Rickey came to town and

of the season's wool crop, continuing I
to buy until there was not enough of
the season's wool on hand to make a
suit of clothes, there will be no wool
sale here In July, as had been announced.
Rickey bought the wool on the
sheeps" backs, as shearing has not yet
taken place here. He is conversant
with local conditions through long ex
perience, and took advantage of the
fact to beat his competitors to the wool.
He paid an average of 14 cents, some
lots being taken at 15 cents.

paid HH cents a pound, or about
