I'eiKlleton's Enterprise.
A gentleman who has observed very
carefully and in detail the working of the
Pendleton wool scouring mill writes to
the Portland Oregonian suggesting the
eminent desirability of the establish
ment of such an enterprise in Portland.
The Oregonian has before pointed out
the apparent good work and great eco
nomic' advantage of this enterprise in
Eastern Oregon. Theoretically it could
not fail to be of great advantage to save
the expense of freight on the waste of
grease and dirt in wool, said to be some
thing like 70 per cent of the raw product.
Practically, 6ays the Oregonian, it is
gratifying to know that the operations of
the Pendleton mill bear out the hopes
entertained of it.'
The following computation is offered
as taken from the facts: Take, for ex
ample, 1000 pounds of wool in the grease,
costing at the lowest rate $1'.75 per 100
pounds, making $17.50. When scoured
it gives 300 pounds,' the freight on which
at $2.50 per! hundred, is $7:50, showing
that the difference, $10, s paid to the
railroad companies for transporting 700
pounds of grease and sand to the Eastern
wool markets. There are eaid to be
seven scouring companies in San Fran
cisco, in which fortunes have been made
in ecouring Oregon wool. It is also
thought that if such a concern could be
started in Portland it would eventually
make a wool market here, and buvers
from' the East would be represented here
instead of at the inland towns, giving all
growers the benefit of a central market
and the opportunity for all the benefits
of the competition of an open market.
The low price of wool and the general
cloud which hangs over the wool indus
try by reason of the opening of our mar
kets to free wool from cheap-labor. coun
tries, renders the ecouring question a
more vital one than ever. It looks as if
we shall have to employ every resource
to overcome, the disadvantages of free
competition. One of these resources,
apparently, is. eliminating the item of
freight upon the waste in the raw wool.
This, if it can be done, and the Pendle
ton experiment would seem to have set
tled that question, should make the en
terprise one to commend itself to capital.
Besides the direct saving on freight
charges, the industry ! would mean the
natural . benefit of the presence of the
plant in the community, employing men,
disbursing wages and affording a cash
market for prompt realization to the
grower. r It would mean a great deal: to
Orenoij if our raw wool, enormous as its
product is in the aggregate, were to be
made up into finished wares at home.
