Cor. California A Oregon Sts.,
NV hen at Portland on Tuesday we
took considerable pains to enquire con
cerning the wool market. We were
informed that one buyer offers to con
tract for 30,000 pounds, and from that
quantity up to all the wool raised in
the Willamette and Umpqua valleys,
to pay therefor 2!» cents per pound de
livered in Portland, and intimates
that he might do even better. Par
ties in the interest of the wool produc
ers would not entertain any proposition
for less than 30 cents per pound, and
expected the offer would increase to
that price.
A gentleman down from the Palouse
country, was in Portland with his wool
clip of 2,000 pounds, and was offered
26} cents, but held for 27 cents, which
he probably received. Wool from east
of the mountains does not bring as
much as that of the Willamette.
While in Portland we visited the
Oregon Wool Grading and Packing
House, situated near the Clarendon
Hotel, which is large and roomy and
has ample accommodation and facili
ties for the business. Mr. Seymour,
agent for the company, was receiving
and grading some lots, but the busi
ness does not equal expectations.—
Here is an important branch of busi
ness, commenced by men of enterprise
and experience, in which our produc
ers have an immediate interest because
it offers them a direct profit of proba
bly two cents a pound on all wool
raised. At the present time men are
apt to rush their wool into market in
a state of poor preparation, and make
haste to sell it, frequently because they
need a little money, and they there
fore take what they can get, whereas
they could have it sorted and repacked
at a trifling cost and could realize on
it in that state at least 2} cents more
than in the rough fleece without care
or selection.
This packing house is willing to do
work at the most reasonable price and
as cheap as it can be done in San Fran
cisco ; but our wool now goes to that
place and is graded and repacked there.
If it was only to encourage home
institutions we could find a profit in
having this work done in our own
State, but. as our wool is more valuable
for being made marketable we cannot
afford to lose by letting it go abroad in
the rough. Still another point of im
portance is that Oregon wool is much
sought for at the F ist, and we can only
prevent imposition being practiced
and other wool put on the Eastern
market as from Oregon, by having a
responsible grading and packing house
hero whose brand shall be known and
respected in all markets. Next year
we can ship or have for sale 5,0(10,000
pounds of wool, which can be graded
and repacked in the best manner for
$25,000, and will bring the producers
$100,000 over and above that, as pre
mium for being in proper commercial
shape.
It will not be many years before the
wool clip of Oregon will make its mark
in the wool markets of the world. Our
flocks rapidly increase, and the profits
of this branch of business are assured.
Continual care is being taken to im
prove the breeds and quality of wool,
and our country is so well adapted to
the business that fleeces grow heavier
and fibre finer instead of deteriorating.
The Eastern plains and uplands, and
even the mountain sides offer vast
areas for sheep husbandry. Our cattle
market is so limited that stock lias be
come cheaper than ever before, with
no outlet for our great surplus. We
can raise horses, but we cannot find
ready sale for them ; but the fleece on
the sheep offers a sure remuneration
and we are in no danger of overstock
ing the markets of the world, lienee,
sheep husbandry promises more for
Oregon in the future than even our
wheat fields, and there is no branch of
business connected with it that we can
afford to neglect.
Mr. Seymour suggests that it is
time a Wool Exchange was established
in Oregon, at which all wools can be
sold by sample in open market. That
would perhaps insure a freer competi
tion from purchasers, though it might
answer another purpose, to give them
a better opportunity to combine. But
we incline to the opinion that the es-
tablishmert of a wool exchange would
result in much good, and the vari ance
ited.

foster her as a tender plant, and she is a
thing of fancy, waywardness and folly
—annoyed by a dewdrop, fretted by the
