TOLL GATE, Wenaha Forest Has Trouble With , Snow Many Band Caught. Walla Walla, Oct. 17. Sheep grow ers of this vicinity, are much worried over reports from Toll Gate, and oth er places that the snow is three feet deep and they fear heavy losses, as at tempts to get the sheep out of the re serve have failed. There is little or no feed in .the mountains for the big flocks of sheep. . One man made an attempt to reach Toll Gate this week and was unable to get within six miles of the place, he reported. The snow was over three feet deep in most places and still falling. Whenever it rains in Walla Walla it apparently snows in the mountains. Ordinarily the owners -are able to get their sheep off the summer range In the reserve upon the end- of the grazing season, October 10. Thig year the snow commenced falling much earlier than usual and in some places extends nearly to the fo(hills. : r " i : The Walla Walla sheepmen are not alone in danger of losing their flocks. Similar reports have been received from Baker City, Elgin, Pomeroy and other places where sheep are fed in i!e Blue mountains. ' , ' ' From all t5ese places come reports that unless the weather modifies so that the snow will thaw, the bands of sheep will perish. The snow is so deep as to. render 1 travel on horse back almost impossible. Whiles owners , will ; not put their losses in the form of dollars, it ' is known that local men stand to lose thousands of dollars if "they cannot get their flocks to lower ground. vaal r chops Me; veal ike. sleek 2e; Teal stew Me; half veal Me; smoked In, wfcato Ste; ark. bacon, light 8C Ml earned 3c; salt perk lie; Seed aam Site ate; bailed haws 2Se; MM mm atteed s; emeked than)- Uc; Ims) lac; hver Itok; teagwe lie; hearts fc; ealmo 2c; aallba lie; amah le; - FOREIGN INTERESTS DECIDE OREGON HAS BEST JUDGES.
