Show SHEARING IN APRIL Sheep shearing will begin in southern south-ern Utah early In April, but, according accord-ing to C Ira Tuttle. assistant general freight agent of the Oregon Short Line, the movement of fleeces to the eastern markets will be unusually slow. Mr Tuttle said yesterday "There has been neither contracting contract-ing nor sale of wool so far, and there is a decided backward movement In this respect This condition is clue lo ihe tariff mainly Both wool growers grow-ers and buyers are simply sitting back, waiting the outcome of the extra ex-tra session and to see what will be done with Ihe tariff on wool. There is also a considerable quantity of wool still in the hands of buyers in the east. I look to sec a slow movement move-ment in wool buying during the beginning be-ginning of the season, although there will be just a6 many buyers on band and Just as much competition In tho field as ever before. The outlook for a good clip is excellent " |
