ROSEBURQ, ore., July 21 m
Paul Sax man, Scottsburg resident
who became lost last Monday while
hunting, I'ound his way out of tho
woods yesterday evening, striking the
Umpqua highway at the mouth of
Weathorly creek, two miles below his
cabin. Throe days and two nights in
the woods left Saxman little the
worse physically but his clothing was
in tatters from continued fighting
through thick underbrush. He sub
sisted entirely on huckleberries, ho
reported. Though he became con
fused in his surroundings Monday.
Suxmau said he felt little alarm as
he was confident that he could find
bis way toj safety in time. Ho was
very apologetic for having caused
anxiety and trouble to those who had
gone In search of him.
KANSAS CITY. July 21 VP) A
pic two of government subsidized co
operatives with loans at preferential
mtej driving private commission firms
out of business and bringing chaos to
the livestock industry, was painted
Wedmaday before a house investigat
ing committee by J. O. Swift, former
president of the Kansas City live
stock exchange.
Mr. swift cnoracterizea mo activi
ties of the federal farm board as a
atop toward growing bureaucratic
government, in ma wstimony oeiore
tho congressional Inquiry into gov-
ornmontal competition with private
business, being conducted by a com
mittee h?aded by Representative Jo
seph D. Shannon of Missouri,
ilo stressed tno great importance
of livestock to tho midwest, and
warned of dire consequence through
"tampering" with the industry.

All tho livestock interests ask,"
Promoting New
Plan to Handle
Farmers' Wheat
lly G. C. Meek
(Observer Correspondent)
i WALLOWA, Ore. (Special) Leo W.
Bell, local grain buyer, has been buiy
recently acquainting some of tho
wheat growers of this community
with a new plan he has in mind for
handling tho wheat which is to be
sold on the market this year. Under
the .new system growers may hold
their grain as long as they desire and
still havo the -advantage of having
about 75 per cent of the market value
of tho grain to use and if the mat
ter can bo worked out satisfactorily
it appears that there also 1b a good
chanco for. a saving In the matter of
handling and other charges. Tho
grain would be loaded into tho cars
for shipment as It Is hauled in from
the farms and shipped to terminals
where it would bo stored if tho grow
er desired, If growers do not care
to make delivery at harvest time
tho grain can be stored on the farms
and they can secure money on it.
The question of heavy dockage has
in past years resulted in a heavy loss
to growers, both in the matter of a
lower price for their grain and also
because of unnecessary freight on
weed seeds, trash and so on. Accord
ing to Mr. Bell It would: be possible
to secure a suitable cleaner which
could bo Installed at the car and
clean all grain before shipment, this
he believes would result In a very
worth while saving to growers.
A considerable number of cattle
nave oeen shipped from this coun
ty during the past few weeks. Some
of tho recent shlDments are reported
to have brought quite low prices. One
itirmer reports me returns irom some
two-year-old steers of only $3.06 a
hundred net. A shipment of two
carloads were scheduled for ship
ment from here this week, however.
because of the unfavorable markot
prospects at present the shipments
hove been held off for a few weeks.
The greater part of the stock being
auijjpeu h(, una time are saicr to-pe
in excellent condition. . .
Oscar Maxwell and Irvin Gastln
returned home the latter part of the
week from tho Washboard range
whore they were looking after cattle
ranging mere. They report an abun
dance of Rood feed on the ranees
there and all cattle getting fat.- The
springs lurnismng water in tho range
areas are said to be holding up well
yet.
A good many of the farmers of tho
community have been going over
their summcrfallow tracts for the
last time before Btarting harvest
work. Weeds have come quite good
on much of the early plowing.
Some lots of huckleberries ore be
ing brought In. from Promise and
other parts of tho county. A num
ber of local people have made trips
Into the timbered areas recently In
search of berries, and some report a
scarcity of. berries in muoh or tho
wooded area It is said that frost
somo time ago killed a large part of
the crop.
Miss Ila Couch, of Leap, spent sev
eral days the past week in town wa
tering and tending to their garden
at Mrs. Henry Spence's home.
Oastin and Cusslns were busy the
latter part of the week moving their
sheep to range In the Whiskey creek
section.
. Eugene Gastln, who is tending
sheep camp for Ivan Simmons in the
Sled Springs district, spent the lat
ter part of the week visiting at the
home of his mother, Mrs, Kato Gas
tln of Leap.
L. W. Minor has had a crew of
several men busy during the past
week stacking hay at his farm in the
hills. He recently cut about' 125
tons of cheat and grass hay there.
Mrs. Bertha Taylor and daughter,
Olivia, were visiting at the Meek
home at Leap the early part of the
week.
L. W. Minor and family and Mm.
Tennant were Sunday visitors at the
K. C. Hearing home at Evans.
Many of tho car owners of this sec
tion are much pleased with the ad
dltlonal 15-day extension granted by
tho governor in which to operate
cars on the old license, although
many report that they do not intend
to secure new licenses because of the
scarcity of money.
James Anderson, who is working
for John Couch, of Leap, was an En
tpmrise visitor the latter part of the
week.
P. A. Mlngel, of La Grande, visited
at the Meek home at Leap the early
part of tho week.
Several of tho farmers of tho hill
feet ions are starting to cut hay from
their fall wheat fields this week.
Many report their crops very light
requiring a good part or the crop for
hay for livestock during the coming
winter. Some were busy a few weeks
ago cutting weeds and anything
wnich would provide a supply of win
ter feod.
O. c. Meek and Earl Burchfleld
were Sunday visitors at the A. Mc
Alexander home In Middle valley.
Co-ops, With U. S. Money, Compete
' With Private Business, Swift Says
Mr. Swift said, "is a fair field and no
favors. We'd like to return to tho
fundamental principled of govern
ment on which this country was
founded and developed, and we're
ready to fight for our principles."
He advocated outright repeal of tno
agricultural marketing act. In thi-
suggestion h3 was seconded by Jamea
Tod, Maplo H1U-3, Kan., livestock
producer and feeder, who also owns
two ranches in New Mexico. 1
Tod also objected to government
financed Irrigation projects as "sjwll
lng the ruin of tho cattle business."
"Bight off the bat," Mr. Tod told
Ohairman Shannon, "I'd repeal the
agricultural marketing act. I'd modlTy
the packers and atockyarda act to
givo police power back to tho ex
changes and do away with govern
ment reclamation projects iudcftu
ltoly and repeal the second section of
the transportation act which puts a
limit on tho earnings of railroads.'1
