Henry Gray was down from his ranch on Crooked river Saturday, to attend the stock-growers meeting and reports having sold his yearling heirl'ers to S. S. Steams for 30 per head, which is a good stiff price for year ling and speaks well for a little judic ious breeding. Mr. Gray takes more than a passing interest in such mat ters and is ever in the front of every movement for the building up of the stock industry of this county. W. F, Hammer, ex-county clerk of Linn county, was in the city the fore fpart of the week and paid this oilice u riendly call. Mr. Hammer has large real estate interests in the Haystack country aud has moved to this county for the winter and may reside here permanently. We are always glad to extend the hand of welcome to such citizens as Mr. Hammer, for he is an entliuiastic worker where ever he is and no doubt but Crook county will feci the effects of his efforts for ad-1 vancenient of its interests.

After getting things under good headway a committee was sent to wait upon Mr. Langille and ask hinr to adress the meeting on matters pertaining to the grazing of cattle in the Cascade reserve and as to the probable action of the government in the matter of the Blue Mountain reserve. Mr. Langille stated that the methods employed by the cattle men in the vicinity of Uufur who herd their cattle on the open hills until the grass is well grown in the mount ains and they do not allow their cattle to congregate around the springs where they will stamp out all the grass and gradually cause the springs to go dry as has been done in many places in Colorado. He also recomendel the sowing of grass in the barren spots and on the low hills and said that by cor responding with the Division of Agrostology, Department of Agri culture, Washington D. C, that all the necessary information about such grasses and the method of their propagation, could be had. A resolution was offered by A. II Lyle for presentation to the legis lature for the repeal of the scalp bounty law, which wa3 referred to the committee on legislation. A rising vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Langille for his talk and explanations. It was ordered that the executive committee lie instructed to make a map pf those portions of Crook county that the association wished incorporated in the lilue Mountain reserve in ad dition to such as has a'ready been withdrawn from sale. The meet ing was an enthusiastic one and will be the means of fostering the cattle industry in this county more than any oth-.r one thing. Shoes. A full line of Ladies', Gents and Children's shoe.
