Idaho In not the only state where woolgrowers are having trouble In getting prices they deem fulr for their product this year. The Knit Lake Re publican, In a recent Issue, nays: Idaho and Montana woolgrowers are still sparring with the buyers anil between this strife and a season of ex tremely unfavorable weather, the In dications are that the clip will not be cleaned up before the first of August, at lnf l wI(h iHier thnn iual. At present, shipments are at a stand still. 1 Discouraged by the slowness on the part of buyers In the field to meet their, terms, the woolgrowers banded together and formed a pool for the purpose of combining their clips and sending them east where they were to be stored and sold through an agent directly to the manufacturing con sumers. Large buyers In Salt Lake sny this move Is regarded as a bluff on the part of the growers and ex press Uie opinion that later develop ments will prove buyers have been of fering all the wool was worth and that they will eventually get the bulk of the clip remaining unsold around ID cents. In support of the theory that the combination of growers car rles with It an element of "bluff," buyers say It has been decided to hold special sales at various points where buyers will submit sealed bids for the clips offered. The growers say that, falling to sell the 6,000,000 or more pounds ot fleece In this manner at satisfactory prices, they will send the whole lot to eastern warehouses In charge of a selling agent. Traveling freight agents In the In ter-mountaln region Bay their titles should be changed to "wool loaders.' They are having troubles too numer ous to mention. One of the Bait Lake boys returned to "civilization." as he called It, after having spent ll days loading one car, and the agent for another road who started loading a car last . week wires that he hopes to come home Saturday If he can fill the car by that time. The cold rains of the laHt two weeks have caused henvy losses to sheepgrowera and some have postponed shearing Indef initely. As for the railroads, they are Inter ested principally In the threat of the Idaho growers to send their wool east In a bunch, for this would mean a congestion of traffic In the west erl ously. If, however, the movement continues ns It has been for the last two weeks, It will mean more disagree able work for the "wool loaders" and no congestion for the railroads.

The critical ordeal through which the expectant mother must pass, however, is so fraught with dread, pain, s iffering and danger, that the very thought of it fills her with apprehension and horror. There is no necessity for the reproduction of life to be either painful or dangerous.

He is a whirlwind fin isher and has often won a race at the post when his friends had given up (ill hope of cashing their bets. Sewell came east last summer. He quickly rose from an apprentice boy to a first-class jockey. Charlie Rowe, owner of Colonial Girl, that beat Her mls In, the $50,000 World's Fair han dicap, soon discovered that Sewell had great ability, and he engaged him at a big salory. The boy went to New Orleans last winter, and at the fair ground track soon rode so many win ners that In spite of an Illness of sev eral weeks, he managed to hold the lead among the riders at that track. Nlcol Jumped Into prominence last season as the pilot of Sysonby. He rode that horse In the majority of his races. James R.

Contractor Had Thirteen Hour to Spare When Completed. The last spike In the Vale Mal heur Valley railroad was driven and the construction train arrived In the city promptly at 11 o'clock the morn ing of the 10th, says the Vale Gazette. The ceremonies attending the comple tion of the railroad from the Oregon Short Line to the county seat of Mal heur county were In the nature of a demonstration by the citizens of the city and surrounding country, who as sembled to witness the entrance of the first railroad train Into Vale. Steve Culver, the contractor for the construction work, whs obliged under his agreement to finish the work by 12 o'clock Sunday night. It was pre dicted some days ago, when the storm visited this section, that Mr. Culver would fall to make good, but with an Increased force of men and teams he overcame the difficulties and complet ed the task, with 13 hours to spare. Regular train service between this place and Ontario will be Inaugurated at once, and the result of rail trans portation means a great boom for Vale and the Malheur valley. Three 18-Year-Old Uoyw nn Eastern Circuit Earn $20,000. Three little lads, none over IS years of age, are scheduled to earn from $30,000 to $35,000 each during this season on the eastern race tracks, says a Memphis dispatch. These boys with trust official Incomes are Jockeys Herman Radtke, Lee Sewell and David Nlcol. They range In weight from 95 to 105 pounds. What the steering gear is lu a snip ine jocKey is 10 a race horse. A single miscalculation, a too sudden pull on a rein or a lack of Judgment In regard to pace, may make defeat certain, and backers of the horso will lose thousands of dol lars. If a Jockey Is not competent enough to elude nil of the "pockets" In which rivals try to ensnare him all the speed of tho horse goes for naught. Oftentimes $200,000 depends upon the fleetness of foot of a thorough bred. In order that tin best horse may not lose where he is able to win, wealthy turfmen pay from $10,000 to $20,000 to little Inds who have clem onstrnted that they can think nulckly, grasp nn opportunity and land the horse the winner. The fleetest horse Is often benten. A bad start, a "pock et," a Jockey's lack of Judgment or Interference, one or all of these things may prevent the best horse from win ning. Radtke, Sewell and Nlcol fill all the requirements of a flrst-clasB Jockey. For a year they hove displayed skill, courage, alertness and strength to such a remarkable degree, that they nr t the too of the ladder. Radtke nroboblv is the greatest of the three, Ho was so successful last winter that Bud May, trainer for Paul Rnlney. the young millionaire, offered $27, COO for the lad's release. Radtke will ride this summer for Jack Keene, who will come east with a big string of horses. In nil his races Radtke has displayed A man who Is In perfect health, so he can do an honest day's work when necessary, has much for which he should be thankful. Mr. L. C. Rodg ers, of Branchton.
