Mr. E D Gaaklll, who is noted for bis well bred stock, drove a herd of pure bred Hereford cattle through the city to his pasture near Morgan lake, and an unserve? reporter wsa given an op portunity of seeing them. They are the E J Conrad registered Hereford stock, and are a splendid testimonial of what this breed of cattle develop In to wben kept upon the range. They are all in splendid condition, well rounded, and show the Hereford mark ing to perfection. The cows are In perfect condition, and their calves show that the Hereford! make first olass mothers. The bull which la with the htrd, though only two years old, la a picture of bovioe beauty and per feet ion. Mr. tiaakill states that the Herefords have demonstrated the fact that they are thoroughly able to take care of themselves on the range, and the splendid condition of the entire herd Is certainly sufficient demonstra tion of this fact,-A few more sooh herds In this valley would soon make the Grande Ronde valley world famous as a produoer of unexoelled oattle.
