Cattle Getting Better ; It seems an assured certainty that the tone of the cattle inarkefis picking; up; that there is n firmness about it which. resembles permanency. If so,' hurrah, for no class of producers nee'd a better market for their wares, unless it be the wheat farmer. 5,! ;We have- been uoticinjr little things of Jute that look like, cattle wbuW be better, nnd today we have a letter from George ' IUclLulJen, the flld Kansas City stock yards cattle-dealer,." who' says: I : "The', cattle market ' has picked up materially in the Inst few. weeks', especially on good, huiidy-weijrlit, killing steers and best she stuff; and I believe we are going: to liiive '!a; good snappy market on ' all classes of cattle from now. on. Best.,beef steers are selling from (9 to $10.50." .While many cattlemen have .been caught under the wreck and will never be able to gain their footing again, yet a change for the better in the markets will help those who are left. '. Not long ago a buyer who conies to La Grande occa sionally, made the statement that a year from next spring the price of beef on foot would be so high that it would acr.re one to think of it. lie gave as his reason that the old-time herds had been marketed and where there was a dozen cattle raisers a few years ago there arc maybe one or two today. : You know every dog has his day, according to the old rhyme, and peifiaps the wheel has turned in the cnttie bus iness for a better inning.

Keeping Up With Corvallis One of thdVeiy best nnnual editions that has come to the desk of the Evening Observer is that of the Corvallis Garatte-Times which was issued as a New Year greeting to the'people of Benton county. ' Forty pages Of bright, interesting descriptive matter of Oregon and the Willamette valleyiuses one tox think twice, for the Gazette-Times has so adroitly written up the different communities that each one seems to offer attrac tions of its own. .'The editorial page of this special edition is filled with the excellent productions of Editor Claude ingnlls, while the advertising sections show that the business manage ment of the newspaper is well cared for. Such editions as the New Year's numlier of the Gazette-Times are price less to the community in which they are published. The Pendleton East Oregonian is worrying quite a lot about the amount of money Henry Ford will save when the Mellon tax reduction plan is put into operation. Why worry about Henry? Everyone was at that a few weeks ago and then Henry cleared the atmosphere with his own words. He may reduce the price of flivvers again, espe cially those used by members of the Democratic party.
