of the largest buyers of Montana
wool. We see) that this wool buyer is
using the result of the Oregon sale
to convince the Montana flock mas
ters, juBt before the season opens
there, that their wool will not bring
anything. The statement follows:
"I think the prices in Montana will
range this season from 10 to 15
cents. There was recently sold in
Oregon approximately 1,600,000
pounds of long staple wool, the kind
produced In Montana, and it fetched
from 8 to 13 H cents. I was told that
Joe King, the Junior partner of Dew.
oy, Gould. & Co., has purchased the
fSnylo wool clip of 800,000 pounds at
13 cents at Billings." i
Buyers Were Bears.
There can be no doubt but that
the wool buyers early in the season
tried to hummer down the price of
wool, and had It not been for the ef
fectlve combination of the wool grow
ers of Montana. Wyoming and Utah
they would have aucceded.
The Montana growers refused to
sell at low prices. The Wyoming and
Utah growers also refused, and imme
diately established an immense ware
house at Omaha, and when the wool
buyer saw he could not obtain their
fleeces without paying a fair price,
the price at once advanced from 4 to
5 cents per pound.
In support of this we submit the
following statement from the Wyom
ing Wool Growers' association:
"The state aud national associations
of wool growers advised the growers
to hold their wool and not accept
the offers of the buyers, and almost
without exception this advice was
heeded. The result was the buyers
could not obtain wool at their own
prices and were compelled- to raise
their offers to get wool.'"
We also submit the following, pub
lished by tho Montana Wool Growers'
association:
Same Tactics in Montana.
"When the large buyers invaded
this market and published broadcast
in the papers of the state the mis
leading Information that Montana
wool would only bring 10 to 15 cents
per pound, we Immediately sought td
combat the impression sought by the
wool buyers of cheap wool ,and so ad
vised the sheepmen of the state
through these columns and by means
of this paper urged every
wool growers of the state to be very
careful of the very misleading Infor
mation sought to be scattered through
the state by representatives of the
wool buyers, and the results have1
been made manifest.
"The very buyers who made the
statement that our wool would bring
but 10 to 13 cents, immediately offer
ed up to 16 cents, and the price has
been forced to over 18 cents, and in at
least one" instance we know of as
high as 10 cents being paid.
"While we do not hold that this
association forced the prices up, we
flatter ourselves that the Information
given to the wool growers of the state
through .this association caused the
great mass of the producers to hold
off and thereby force the buyers to
materially advance their prices,"
Inconsistency.
While declaring in the main part
of his interview that the Oregon
sheepmen received all their wool was
worth, the Tribune Informant admits
In the following language one conten
tion of the East Oregonlan, namely,
that the sales were held too early:
"The fact is the sales here on the 28th
of May were too early, since titers
was no established market at that
time."
Regardless of the assertion of the
Tribune wool grower, we are satisfied
that 90 per cent of the wool growers
of this county believe they did not
receive within 4 cents of the market
price of thjir wool. And if this Ore
gon flockmnster would look up the
facts he would know Oregon wools
are always worth within 2 to 2 cents
as much as Montana wools.

REAPS LAND VALUE IN

Walter Glasby ThreJe Over 50
Bushels per Acre front 59 Acres of
Farm.
Pullman, Wash., Aug. 11. -With
wheat yielding from 25 to 60 bushels
an acre and the price ranging from
75 to 80 cents a bushel, farmers In
this part of the country are taking
an optimistic view of the future. In
tho country tributary to Pullman it Is
estimated that 90 per cent of the
wheat Is of the winter varieties and
that It will yield within 10 to 15 per
cent as much as last year and fully
equal the average of the last 10 years,
while the price Is higher than ever
known at this time of year. There
have been half a dozen times In the
past 20 years when wheat reached
80 cents a bushel, and nearly all of
these times came late in the season,
when the bulk of the crop had been
sold.
This year the price has reached this
high plane before bushel of wheat
was ready for the market and the
farmers nre given the opportunity of
selling all of their crops at a high
price. The case of Walter Glasby,
whose farm Is near Armstrong sid
ing, three miles northwest of here,
Is one of interest. Mr. Glasby has a
farm estimated worth from $40 to $50
an acre. He threshed more than
50 bushels an acre of 0-fold wheat,
