Feeders for the

E. E. Laughlin of Paulina passed
through town the last of the week
from a visit to his family at The
Dalles.
Mr. Laughlin docs not believe
that any action by congress will
materially affect the cattle business.
Even if cattle are permitted to'
enter the United Stated duty free,
the effect would not be appreciable.
As the cattle range becomes more
restricted every year supply and
demand will boost the price and
keep the industry In a flourising
condition.
There is a goid demand for feed
ers in the Paulina country, he says.
This demand will be somewhat re
lieved by the arrival of J. E. Rey
nolds, the cattle buyer, with 5000
head of cattle from Northern
Mexico and Texas. He is expected
sometime between May and June,
f. J. Ferguson and Mr Dixon are
also expected this spring with a big
bunch of feeders.

The "Story of the Cadillac," i one of that mechanical and
commercial advancement which makes for permanency.
The Cadillac Company has never yielded to clamor by
producing that which catered merely to fancy, nor
that which took advantage of the uninformed. On the
contrary it has produced only that which it knew would
give to the purchaser "value received" in abundant measure.
The Cadillac Company has never been obliged to lesort
to exaggeration and over-drawn claims to dispose of all
the cars that it could make and more. Its policy hai
ever been to under-claim rather than over-claim. It is
gratified that the public accepts its representations at their
full worth; because the public has never been misled and
because the public could always expect and has always
received more than was offered.
