missing party. It has been ignored
for years.
A case brought on these grounds

of wool was sold, ranging in price
from 14% to 19 cents per pound, 4
cents higher than last year.
The wool was all of the best grade
and the bidding was very brisk. The
sales were a complete success and
the growers are now more determined
than ever to stand by the sales day
agreement. Very little wool was sold
this year outside of the sales and
what was sold, went lower than the
same grade at the public sale. The
next sales at Shaniko will be held on
June 14 and July 1, at each of which
sales about 2,000,000 pounds will be
■old.
