About one hundred wool-growers of
ftOregon held a meeting this morning in
jthe rooms of the Commercial club, and
discussed various subjects of interest to
jwool-grovvera throughout the state.
' Among tho resolutions passed one of
thanks to tho members of the D. C. &
A. C. was tendered for the nee of the
club rooms and the kind treatment re
ceived ut the hands of its members dur
ing the meeting of Wool-Grower's As
sociation. The question of exterminating wolves,
coyotes and other animals eo trouble
eotne to sheep-raisers was discussed and
a committee appointed to attend to the
matter of bounties.
The Cascade reserve question was also
tpoken of mid a committee appointed to
'arrange matters concerning the same.
Action will also be taken by the associa
tion to see that all sheep in the state are
kept free from scab and other diseases.
The necessity of such an organization
as this has long been felt by the wool
growers of Oregon, and now that it ia at
last organized the woolmeu feel enthu
siastic and will do everything possible
to make it u successful organization.
Anyone in this state interested' in
wool-growing can join the association in
the payment of fifty cents, which ia the
annual dues.
A meeting will be held here on June
23, 1898, and it is hoped that all Oregon
wool-growers will attend, and by
their support make it easier for the as
sociation to accomplish the important
ends for which it was organized.

The Pacific Northwest Wool-Grower's
Association had a very happy termina
tion at the closing session which was
held last evening, and was enjoyed
throughout by the large crowd which
filled the Vogt Opera to its utmost capa
city. The session was opened by a well-rendered
selection by the orchestra, which
was followed by the singing of "liosebud
Fair" by the Temple Quartet, and they
received the usual hearty encore.
As all of the questions of importance
had already been discussed, there were
a few of a more humorous nature left
over for last evening's meeting. Here
are some of them :
"Does scab ell'ect an hydraulic ram?"
This was answered by Fred Young.
"What ia home without a mother-in-law?"
This waB to be answered by Fred
W. Wilson, but a be fa'ilt"d to appear,
the mystery is still unsolved.
"Does the asphalt pavements of The
Dalles effect the health of its inhabi
tants?" This was anaweied by Mayor
Nolan.
"How to prevent a hen from setting?"
Thia was answered by Mr. Goodhue, of
Salem, aud it created considerable
laughter.
"Does the circulation of the War Cry
in this city effect tlio-advertising in Tin:
Chkonici.e?" This important question
could not be answeied without deliber
ate consideration, and waa put oil' until
the next meeting.
The questf.on whether it was deemed
prudent to plant thisles in our lawns,
was very ably discussed by Mr. A. It.
Leckerby, of North Yalima.
The quartet made a decided hit when,
in response to an encore they sang a
parody on "Hot Time in Old Town,"
iu which they introduced a number of
local hits, and were called back again
and again.
The illustrated lecture by Prof. French,
of the agricultural college at Corvallis,
Oregon, was very interesting, and a
number of splendid views were shown.
Among other pictures was that of Presi
dent George Blakeley of the Comercial
club, which was greeted with applause,
as was the picture of those who wc-ro
present at the Wool-Grower's conven
tion. The session was closed by Prof. Per
not's illustrated talk on pests which
affect the fruit in Oregon.
Chairman FrenchNlieu thanked the
audience and dedared the meeting of

Association closed.
