Over 2,000,000 Pounds Handled in the
Year 1904,
That Elgin Is one of the Import
ant wool shipping points In this part
of the state Is proven by the follow- j
lug figures, which the Reporter oh-1
tallied through Charles Proehstel, I
bookkeeper for the Elgin Forwarding
Company.
The xvool season began this year on
the sixth of June, on which date the
first load arrived from Wallowa coun
ty, and continued until the 10th of
the present mouth.
During this period there was baled
and shipped 2,275, 164 pounds of wool.
Engaged in handling this wool were
on an average 14 men, whose wages
ranged from $2 per day for truckers,
to $4.50 per day for graders and baler
foremen,
A glancve at these figures Indicates
that Elgin Is one of the principal wool
shipping centers of the eastern por
tion of (he state, and that the work
of handling It Is quite an important
item in the business industries of the
town.
There Is more Catarrh In this eectlon of
the country than all other dlaeasea pot

by constantly falling to cure with local
treatment, pronounced It Incurable. Sci
