Weather Condition Good For Livestock PORTLAND MV-Range and weather conditions In Oregon are very favor ablo for this time of year, and little feeding Is being done, as snow Is generally off the ground and stock back on the feeding ranges. This Is the report of the federal-state crop reporting service of the depart ment of agriculture. Condition of stock Is from fair to very good, the report said, and there is plenty of feed to carry through the winter. Sheep are staying out on ranges exceptionally late and are in good condition. Range conditions in the state show a slight Improvement over Decem ber, and little feeding has been re quired. Lack of snow is causing a water shortage In some quarters, the government report said, while other districts say feeding will have to be gin again If frost and fog continues. While the condition of Oregon cat tle shows very little change from last month, a great number are be ing held because of low price. Sheep are wintering well.

Witness, for ox ample, the tawny-gray .creature cap tured here in a grocery store. For the past two months Mr. and Mrs, George A. Fisher heard noises emanating from their store room. Nothing could be found. The noises continued, sometimes with the rasp ing chirp of a .cricket, but ofteuer with a quaint musical lilt. Most fre quently It was heard at night. Oc cupants of the living quarters in the real of the structure were awakened, puazled by strange melodies. Finally Mrs. Fisher discovered the mouse when sho was sweeping put the corners near some carrot- sacks. The nouse escaped.' All devices to capture it failed until it was again seen; singing merrily away iu a car rot "sack. Then strategy, was called Into play the open end of the bag was placed in the mouth of a large candy Jar and the tiny creature noved Its quarters.
