CLOSE OF MARKET
The Portland Union Stock Yards
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the week have been,
Cattle 548; Calves 63; Hogs 1658;
Sheep 7368; and Horses 73.
At the close of the week prices
were a good 25c higher than at the
opening. There was a strong rally
and the demand was not met by the
light receipts. There is a great
amount of wonder among campaigners
as to'-what is to become of the cattle
marget. Over at Chicago the market
papers are frequently predicting that
$10 steers are in sight. Local operat
ors who balked at paying $5 and $5.25
for feeders are now considering pay
ing one-fourth to one-half cent high
er. The pronouncel shortage as com
pared with a year ago, the abund
ance of feed crops and the strong
prices prevailing have created a bulV
ish tendency that is backed up by nat
ural conditions. Just where it will
end and how high cattle will go, are
problems that only time will solve.
Next week this market expects to see
part of a train load of feeders from
Texas. ' No more eloquent lesson of
the shortage that prevails in this
country can be given than the willing
ness of buyers to pay high prices and
the carrying charge on cattle from
Texas. The establishment of a com
pany, known as the Portland Feeder
Company, created for the purpose of
taking care of the farmers' needs is
an evidence of the acuteness 'of condition,-
Not only is the alfalfa .count
ry clamoring for feeders but the Will
amette Valley is making its demands
known.
The hog market is strong to higher
with tops at $8. The receipts are
fairly liberal, considering that the
supply came from local territory.

Talks. r
By EDWIN A. NYE.
THE WAY OF THE WORLD.
Oscar Hammerstein, London:
I have quarreled with Alphonse, the cat
is dead, and the stove has gone out.
SUZAKNA DUMESNIL.
Behind the cablegram printed above
is the story told by a theatrical writer
a typical story of human life.
Every year Oscar Hammerstein used
to go to Europe, looking for song birds
for his opera.
In Paris be beard Suzanna Dumes
nil, a famous French soprano, and
said to her, "I want you." In addi
tion to buying her release from her,
manager be offered a big salary. -
Shrugging her shoulders, Dumesnil
said:
"Leave my so dear Paris? Nevalre!
Why should I leave my Alphonse, who
loves me; niy cat, that I adore, and my
good,, warm little stove?"
Why indeed?
There are other things in life aside
from dollars. And Dumesnil knew
that very well.
And yet
Six months later the soprano was
swaying audiences in grand opera,
London. And the discriminating said
they could detect in the wonderful
voice a new undertone of sadness.
Ah. me!
Alphonse had proved false, and the
cat was dead, and the little stove was
cold.
What was it somebody said when he
first heard Jenny LindV "Break her
heart and she will sing divinely."
Well, and somebody did break her
heart.
It Is the way of the world
The way of disillusion.
I When Alphonse is true and the csit
purs on the hearth and the Ore in the
little stove hums brightly, then does
life ahead look like a radiant morn
ing. But-
Comes a day when the fire is but
ashes, and there is no sweetheart true,
and the poor cat is dead. The mirage
has risen. The rivers of joy have
lost their runnels in life's desert places.
Well, well!
It may be that some sweet day Jules
will fill the heart that Alphonse left
empty, and another kitty will sing,
and the fire In the little stove will
flame np again!
Do It Now!
"Have you forgotten that $10 you
borrowed of me some time ago?", .
"Oh, no; I still have it in mind."
"Well, don't you think this would be
a good time to relieve your mind?"
Exchange. ..-.-'

Westminster Abbey,.
All visitors to London make it a
point to visit the famous Westminster
abbey. But in reality there is no such
place as Westminster abbey, because
the abbey disappeared many, many
years ago. What they see now is the
church that used to belong to the ab
bey. and the proper, name" for this
building is the Collegiate Church of St
Peter. They keep up the old name
Westminster :ib!ey because people,
like it, just as they keep the blood,
stains in the Tower freshened up witb
paint now and then. New York Sun.
Taxless Town.
There is a community In France
where not only are there no taxes, but
the timbers on the communal lands are
sufficient to grant each person a small
annuity. This happy land is Montmar
lon, in the Midi. There are seven elec
tors in the hamlet, so to avoid anything
like rivalry the seven return them
selves to the local council. Cutting
down the trtses and selling them is suf
ficient to provide a livelihood for these
simple people, whose tastes are so mod
est that they may be termed by some
uncivilized.
Bright Pupils,
These are some of the pupils' answers
to examination problems:
The countries benefited by the over
flow of the Nile nre Europe, Asia, Aus
tralia and America, because they are
not there to be drowned.
The source of the Nile river is its
main strength.
Example A boy paid $8.25 for a
wagon and sold it for $7.75. Bid he
gain or lose, and how much?
Answer He gained on the cents and
lost on the dollars. Kansas City Star.
Fogarty's Retort. -Fogarty
got into a jam with the man
ager of a company in which be was a
member. The criticism was that he
was not doing his best, and the argu
ment led up to this climax:
"Well, I'm the manager of the
troup."
Fogarty Anybody could tell that by
taking a slant at the shape of yout
skull. Chicago Post.
