The secoud series of wool sales under
the sealed bid system for this year, con
ducted utder the direction of the Ore
gon Wool Growers' Association occurred
in this city yesterday.
To be In readiness for this sale grow
ers from Morrow, Grant and Gilliam
counties have been mulling their wools
to this city and a large amount was on
storage.
It was a busy day at the warehouses.
The buyers were on hand early and
business was rushing the entire day.
When the buyers got through in the
evening, the warehouses presented
aad looking sight. Wool was piled here
and there arid thrown in every direction
on both floors of the buildings.
The buyers haven't much respect for
wool sacks. Kach man carries a sharp
knife and when a lot of wool was offered
the sacks were split from one end to the
other. The wool is hand'ed and in
speeted without much ceremony.
R F. Hynd, manager of the M. C. L
A T. Co's warehouse and secretary of
the Oregoe Wool Growers' Association
had charge of the sales. A 'ter inspec
tion the buyers wou'd make their offers
and place the sealed bids in a hat when
they were read by Mr. Hynd to the
grower.
It was a fast way of doing business
and in some ways resembled the work
ings of a stock exchange.
In nearly every case growers were
well pleaded with the offers and ac
cepted their checks with a feeling that
they had received every cent their wool
was worth.
The sealed bid system inaugurated
by the Oregon Wool Growers' Associa
tion has been a great success. It has
been the means of furnishing the grow
ers a better market than could have
been obtained otherwise.
While the growers have been benefit
ted, it has aiso been satisfactory to the
buyers. The wool is pooled in large
lots where it can be examined. It is
held until the day of the sales without
trafficking and the buyers all have an
even show. It only requires two or
three days to do the business which
was impossible under the old system.
Tke wools offered here veeterdav
were mostly of the lighter Morrow,
Grant and Gilliam county clips.
The following buyers were present:
M. W. Iirigbam, representing Whit
man, Farnsworth A Thayer, of Boston.
Fred Kuhn, representing the Botany
Worsted Mills, of New York.
Frank Lee, representing C S Moses A
Co., Han P'rancisco.
Frank Green, representing S K"sh
land, San Francisco.
Wm. Mllery representing iiallowel',
Donald A Co., Boston.
Frank Lee, the well known buyer is
credited with paying the highest price
for any one lot of wool at the sales. For
the Chas. White clip of Lone Hock, he
paid 14 cents per pound.
Following are the sales at the M. C.
L. A T. Co's warehouse :
Thos. Gilfillen, M,(H pounds at Li's
cents per pound.
Conner A Hayes, r,v) pounds at 1334

From the first discoveries of coal out
