Long has it been generally known that Cove Is one of the Ideal fruit .pots of the northwest. Long has It been' known that Cove Is tine horns of the best cherries. In or der to .further 'illustrate and show to the outside world the merit of its claim the ' little town and community has gone to considerable expense to pre pare an exhibit that is par excellence. This wa9 not considered an Ideal cherry year in most section of Oreponj yet In Cove the growers have cher ries in large quantities and tbiey are willing to back their crop by holding an exhibit, which is evidence of their faith Jn the Industry. Cove people are to be commended for thus pushng to the front and plac- -.- on exhibition a crop that is bound to give wide publicity to the Grand Ronde alley. - ' . ; . There was but one thought in the minds of the Grande Ronde people to day and that was Cove Early in the morning the big "chod-ebbo' drays be gan hauling their human loads of buz zing and expectant freight across the valley toward the welcome shades of Mt. Fannie. The trip is especially en joyable to resident and Granger alike, for the bumper crops laughingly sway and nod their golden heads that so soon are to fall before the crisp step ping of the. giant "combines" and the golden coins can be heard tumbling Into the enlarged pockets of the happy farmers. ' The commonly thronged bitullthic trailed through our city were almost depopulated and the sad-faeed ones cooped up In their stern office walls were sad only because they , couldn't "go to Cove." . .' CATTLE IX EASTERN OREGON. : Several loads of Wallowa county cattle, were shipped through La Grande last night on their way to the Portland market. Each load meant a bunch of money for It has been many, many years since cattle growers received the price for cattle they are receiving this summer. The suppjy is very short and the demand is heavy, hence the high price. It tg JuBt as Impossible to di vorce supply from demand and vlca versa as it Is to make the sun Mop shining. There Is always more or less Jug gling by trusts and packing houses to govern prlees, but the great main spring of the cattle business Is the supply and demand, after all. In this I Eastern Oregon country flew people are raislnit cattle as compared with a ' few1 years ago. Sheep became profit : able and many entered the business.

The cowmen call themselves by the go d mou'.h-filling name of the-'American National LIto Stock association. All stockmen are welcome, but the mem bership Is made up chiefly of cattle men, the sheepmen prff erring to flock by themselves. These men represent over 1500,000,000 In live stock", a source of gigantic p wer In an age when mon ey la the ruling force if organized. Inls H. Weed In Success Magazine. "THIS IS MY 45TII BIRTHDAY."

' No one doubts the fact that Orepon,'s lumber market Is In the middle states and no one can doubt another fact: Not so many years ago the cowboy that the money producing business of. had orders to keep his finger on the the northwest country Is her lumber trigger; today such actions savor, of prices and beefsteak Is a luxury carry ing a heavy expense.
