Wool Market Up in Yakima Valley Optimistic Sheepmen
In Yakima Valley the wool market sits unsettled as buyers quote 16 to 18 cents while growers ask 22 to 25 cents. Prominent sheepmen like James Wright and Coffin Bros. predict 25 cents, citing Montana wools cheaper and ongoing shearing across the valley. Wright shipped 10 carloads from Montana last week and will receive 14 more next week, with wool being processed south of Yakima before sale to British Columbia.
