OU R XMAS NUTS AND CANDIES Have Arrived v WE INVITE YOU TO CALL IN AND LOOK OV: ER OUR ASSORTMENT BEFORE BUYING Regardless of what, the wool tariff may end up with, there will be plen ty of good mutton on the markets next year. The splendid range grass over all Eastern Oregon ranges this year has prepared flocks for a se vere winter if such should result, and to all appearances 'Eastern Oregon consumers of mutton will not hav'i to pay very high prices for their favorite meat dish. This, too. Is en couraging In view of the fact that mutton has In the last year or so become a much more popular food : stuff than It has usually been. Speak ing of the sheep conditions, the fol ' lowing is quoted from Pendleton: i 'My foreman at Arlington tells me that the grass on the range Is now better than he has seen at this time 'of the vear for 15 years." says Dan P. Smythe, extensive "woolgrower,and for many years secretary of the state association. "The rood condition Is due mainly to the fact of the good rains last spring. The sheep did well on the summer ranges because of ,mucb grass and moisture. Then when the ycame down to the winter range the fouad much rood dry grass to eat That feed kept the sheep going well until the green grass was ready. They are now in splendid shape and should go through the winter well. The Indications now re that the wool next spring will ibe heavy and of good quality. The quality and quan tity of wool born b ya sheej depends very largely on the physical condl tion of the sheep. If the sheep gets into bad shape the wool clip is light and the wool of poor grade."
