Will Hold Fleeces for Better Prices
Moeda Dlapaluh in the Standard reports Montana woolgrowers and the state association officers warn of a possible combine among commission house men to depress prices. Producers claim they could lose 4 to 6 cents per pound on this year’s wool clip if sellers unite and demand last year’s price. The Montana Woolgrowers Association urges top demand at a similar level, noting the clip is in fair condition and prices may hinge on broker actions in Chicago warehouses. Last year dealers offered from 1 to 25 cents per pound. this year they seek about 19 cents.
