QUALITY
WOOL MARKET IS
AT A STANDSTILL
Not a Pound of 1913 Crop
Yet Oontracted In
Oregon
In regard to the wool situation the
Oregonian gives the following:
So far as can be learned not a single
pound of 1913 wool has been bought
in Uiegon or, contract to date. There
was a rumor of some business having
been done at Baker in wool on the
sheep's back, but Investigation failed
to confirm it. Buyers in this state 'rep
resenting eastern houses have received
no instructions to enter on contracts
and they d) not look for any. With the
tariff situations uncertain, it is prob
able that all buying will be deferred
until the wool has been sheared.
The same conditions are likely to pre
vail in other parts of the West.
"Efforts thus far to contract in the
vVest have proved futile, owing to the
refusal of the growers to accept what
are'eonaidered as fair prices l.y buyers
j from the East," Bays tbe Boston Tran-
script "Many houses have men in the
j West, some on their usual trips at this
season, and others looking tne field
over, posHibly to see what ciin be done
i in securing individual clips before
'shearing time. Shearing is just begin
ning in Arizona, but nothing is report
ed us sold.
"In regard to the report that Ohio
farmers hud been getting rid of their
sheep, in "anticipation of a radical
change in the tariff h reperscntative of
one leading picking house says that a
big movement of this kind in the late
Fall and early Winter has about
'petered out.' Western farmers re
member very keenly tne sudden droping
sneep values which followed the pas
sage of the Wilson bill. The recent
shipment of sheep to stockyard centers
was merely a pre autionary effort to
avoid larger losses in the future."
Conditions in tbe Eastern market
are reported by the Boston Com
mercial Bulletin as follows: "With so
many unfavorable circumstances at
tendant upon the wool market at the
moment, it is not Btrange perhaps tbat
there is only a sluggiBh movement in
wool. Indeed, it would he strange if
there were any marked activity.
Notwithstanding this state of affairs,
there is nut much pessimism apparent
so far as the immediate future is con
cerned and from the present attitude
of manufacturers, dealers are not
lacking who express It as their hrm
conviction that an active market will
be in evidence again within a month.
"Prices have shown little or no
change within the past week. There
has been the usual clean-up of odd lots,
which nave brought various prices and
which are hardly ouotable anyway, but
wools of good description have com
manded pr ces equal to those of a week
ago. Dealers state demand is not lack
king for good wools, but that it is yet
possible to move stocks at the prices
some holders want."
Several hundred scrs of limber land
a few miles west of Paisley was bought
last week by Messrs. Kubic and Love
Lint. The ChewaucMn lnaiay8 iheje
gentlemen will immediately begin the
erection of a 30,000 capacity saw mill
on tbe property.
