F. Ulcknoll and Scott An.lerson, who will ship to Idaho, Sheep shearing In Umatilln county will last for perhaps two week jet, though some of tho earlier shearer havo already finished their season' clipping. Result from tho shearing plant provo that tho earlier prophecy of good clip for this year Is proving as predicted. The fleeces aro found to bo unbroken and the staple good, due largely to the early grass and the bet ter than common condition of tho sheep becauso of the close winter. The lambing season for Umatilla county will last but a few days longer, though It will not cloeo quite so soon up in the foothills of the county. The increaso this year In the county will bo above 96 per cent, with the total near er the lower figure. The increase in Umatilla county will approach the maximum this year because of the ex ceptionally good weather conditions. Tho winter left the heep fatter than usual, due to the regularity of the snow conditions and the plentlfulness of hay. Then the grass came early In the spring keeping the fat of tho sheep up and adding more. The lambing season proper has found the weather condi tions especially good again. Tho who chanced winter lambing report an especially good Increase. WOOL CLIP GOOD. Mitchell Growers Say Quality Is Bet ter Than Usual.

All the sheepmen report that the crop of 1909 lambs will go beyond the 100 per cent mark.

The wool this year Is of a better quality than usual, and the price are likewise. Farmers of thl section are beginning to complain of drouth and cold north wind. Fall sown grain Is not doing so well a it should and the spring sown crop will need moisture to in sure a good stand. A larger acreage ha been sown to grain thl year than in former year and all concerned re gret that the weather should remain so unfavorable. While the weather baa such a back ward effect on the crop, it Is pleasing to know that tbe range Is abundantly supplied with tbe finest crop of grass that the stockmen could desire. All elaase of stock are in fine condition, and prospect point to a favorable grating season. No cattle or horse are moving on the market at prex-nt. but G. L.
