Over a Million Pounds of Wool In the Warehouse Now Four Carloads a Day Coming. Tho Pendleton Wool Scouring mills started work this morning with 13 men from San Francisco at tho scour ing tables. By Thursday morning tho scouring machines will bo ready to run and when they start the worlilng force will bo Increased to 25 men. The first of next week a night force will be put on and the mills will bo run night and day for the rest of the season, carrying a payroll of about ou men and boys. The mill had on hand when It started 1,125,000 pounds of wool, nnd more Is coming In nt tho rate of nbout four car loads a day. Last season tho mills scoured 3,600, 000 pounds of wool nnd graded about 7o0,uoo pounds of tho amount scoured, What the mill will do this season Is not yet certain; it may have n greater run than last year, or It may have a less. The price of wool governs the run of tho mills to a great extent, n wool Is cheap and easily gotten the run will bo greater; If the market is tight the run will be lighter. .Most of hte output from tho mill Is shlppel to Hartford, Conn., direct. In fact, nearly all of tho total amount goes East, for tho wool the Pendleton mill uses Is not a drop In tho bucket compared with tho entire product of the year's work. Some wool last year was shipped to Oregon City, but It was a small amount. The Pendleton concern has virtual control of the local wool mnrket, ns they enn more easily handle tho sandy wool of this part of tho conn try, paying higher prices to tho grow ers and still make a living profit, than can tho outside mills.
