A Pleasant Resort
' Few places In Oregon surpass Ladd
Canyon for beauty, aocessebiMity, or

the high cliffs on each side affjrd
ample protection from the . wind. In

Some Fine Cattle
This morning those of our citizens
who dellgnt In one stock bad an op
portunity to see some as fine cattle as
any stockman would hope to see. 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.
