IG THE MORNEVG OREGOMAX, FRIDAT, XOTE3IBER 19, 1920 BIOS LOW FOR-ALL General Hesitancy of Invest ors Is Blamed. THREE SALES. ARE HELD King Lavender Breaks All Auction Records by Bringing Day & Rothrock $2 00 0. Three great stock sales featuring -dairy and breeding cattle and tat stock were held yesterday, as part of the regular programme of the Pacific International Livestock exposition, but in all except the Shorthorn di vision prices were disappointingly low. Followers of the livestock in dustry, particularly judges and breed ers from tho east, say that the bids were only a reflection of present conditions, which show a general hes itancy of investors to make any great outlay of money. All 1920 Pacific International auc tion records were broken by King lavender,. 3-year-old bull owned by Lay & Kothrock, Spokane, who was sold for $2000 to O. O. Haga of Boise, Idaho, at the Shorthorn auction yes terday afternoon. But the record was tied before the close of the sale by Karl of Cilcncoe, I.owe & Powers. Cul bcrtson, Mont., who went to Edward Nelson, Fenn, Idaho, for the same amount. Shorthorn bulls were in Kood demand by the buyers and the average for those sent through the tales ring was in the neighborhood of S00. Itecord Bid Is fl.'OO. Thirty-five females in the Short horn herd averaged $613, with the record bid of $1500 going to Frank Brown, Carlton, Or., for his Aberdeen Lucile. She was bought in by J. H. Hulbert, Mount Vernon, Wash. Three new breeders planning to build herds In the northwest added life to the bidding for Shorthorns. One of thetnj Calvin A. Ingle, Corvallis. Or., bid in four head for a total of $2600. The first Guernsey led upon the auction platform was bought for the F. S. Peer herd, Crawford, N. J., after brisk bidding. The cow was Merle of Chicona, Albion L. Gile, Chinook, "Wash., and brought $700. The rec ord Guernsey price of the afternoon, JB50, was paid for Edna of Mountain A'icw. Leslie G. Perry. Wendell, Idaho, by Wallace & Fordyce, Sunnyside, Wash. Average prices for Guernseys were low. The it sold brought a to tal of $10,915, an average of $454 a head, while one animal went for $95 and another for $115. C. V. Jock 4th BrlnK fS95. C. U. Jock 4th, University of Cal ifornia, grand champion steer of the exposition, who carried the unique record of being the first Aberdeen Angus steer to take highest honors at the Pacific International, brought $695 on the auction block in the main arena yesterday morning when the prize-winning fat stock was auc tioned. The Sterrett Packing com pany bid him in at 50 cents a pound gross and he weighed out 1390 pounds at the Swift & Co., yards yesterday afternoon. The Pacific International record bid is $1.25 a pound, accord ing to O. SI. Plummer, general man ager. BidB on championship fat stock were low in comparison with former years, but some brisk bidding was in evidence. The second highest price per pound was the 45-cent bid of the Sevier Commission company for the grand champion barrow of the exposi tion, owned by H. Willard, rayton, Or. Edward W. Coles, Haines, Or., 'sold his grand champion carload of fat steers to Frank W. Burcher at 19 cents a pound, and his second prize car to Swift & Co. for 16 cents a pound. The two cars brought him $6536 and, in addition, won him over $600 in prize money. The 'senior year ling Shorthorn champion steer and rosprvn irranri rhamninn wan bonsrht from the University of California by the Portland hotel for $372. v Cnlf Auction Is Feature. A feature at the Shorthorn sale yesterday afternoon was the auction of a calf donated by Day & Roth rock, Spokane, to the . exposition. Frank Brown opened the bids at $100. The auction finally ended in all bid ders pooling their bids and buying the calf at $750. It was then re- donated to the exposition Avith the stipulation that it again be auctioned next year. Frank Kothrock, member " of the firm which donated the calf, ' agreed to keep it till next year. Frank Brown, Carlton, Or.; A. E. Dunn, Wa pato. Wash.; Frank Rothrock, Spo kane;' It. 11. Parson, Seattle, and A. J. Seely, Mount Pleasant, Utah, were the bidders who participated. 1SOO Donation Is Raised. Last night Holstein breeders raised $1&00 by subscription as a donation to the exposition building. The Jersey men immediately became active when the news had spread about and matched the Holstein gift with $3000 Today's auction sales will see the ylck of Herefords and Holsteins of fered to the public. An exceptionally large number of exhibitors In both these breeds are in attendance at the exposition and the sales are expected - to bring out both record crowds and record prices. Both will take place In the afternoon. An opening feature of tomorrow's matinee horse show will be the pa rade of senior, junior and grand champions of all breeds. The Satur day crowd is expected to eclipse all attendance records for. In addition to the matinpe horse show, it will be the last chance to see the champion ftock crowned by the premier stock Judges in the country before it is scattered once more to the ranches ' throughout the west. Jersey Awards Finished. After three days of strenuous Vork, George W. Sisson Jr., of Potts dam, N. Y., tied the last ribbon in the Jersey classes yesterday. The Jer e-y exhibit numbers more than 300 animals and competition was keen in both open classes and groups. Aside , from the individual championship records announced earlier in the week outstanding Jerseys were found in frlmost every class. Although both grand champion ships went to the state of Washing ton, Oregon scored a victory in the special state herd class, while promi nent Oregon breeders won in nearly all of the other groups. In a special county group contest, a picked herd from Clackamas won over similar herds from Yamhill, Linn, Coos and Tillamook. The McArthur and Stauff herd from Jtickreall, of which Representative McArthur is chief owner, captured 20 rries in the Jersey classes, being second only to the naikiki farm ex hibit in number of prizes won. The lcArthur and Stauff herd won blue ribbons in both senior and junior bull calf classes and won consistently in almost every group In which they were shown. The calf and dairy herds of thi .exhibit in particular scored heavily and the seia of two different sires AUCTIONEERS CLASS WITH MALE BOVINES AT SHOW Salesmen Declared to Have Flow of Language Like of Which Is Seldom Heard; Exhibitions Are Best in History. BY ADDISON BENNETT. M ANAGER O. M. PLUMMER Is to blame for the bad weather this week. A wireless received by Judge Carey, vice-president of the show, from J. Pluvius, chief engineer of the heavenly water supply, says that Mr. Plummer never arranged for good weather, either by mail, express or wireless. J. p. says he is very sorry for the extent of the moisture dished out to us during the week, but will guarantee fine weather for the next show. But why kick at the weather? We should worry when the attendance thus far during ,the week is better, both day and night, than on similar days last year or the year before. Yesterday when I entered the doors I thought the place was deserted, at first glance, but hearing voices in a southerly direction I went over to the auction stadiums and found them both packed to suffocation and hundreds trying to get even a look in. J. W. Hughes, auctioneer of For est Grove, was selling Guernseys in one of the inclosures. Did you ever hear the siren voice of Auctioneer Hughes? If not you have missed a treat. It is a far-reaching, penetrat ing and inviting voice. Frequently It is. accompanied by tears; more fre quently it brings tears to the eyes of the audience. I saw him yesterday sell a beautiful Jersey heifer for $700, the measley, insignificant sum of $700. The voice of the auctioneer' led' one o believe that a bid of less than s.tnnn for such a superb animal was a crime against the entire Guernsey family and each and every one of the di rectors of the show. And vet! And yet, he actually hinted that the only way that the bidder could gain fame and fortune, peace and tranquillity, was by buying the aforesaid animal. And furthermore, he held out some thing more than a hint, in tones that went right down into the bidder's hip pocket and dug up his check book, that included in the bargain, iroinir with the heifer, as it were, was a through ticket to the pearly gates. ncluding a Pullman berth and three meals a day in the dining car. Yea, verily. Brother Hughes as an auc- ioneer is I was going to say in comparable. But there is another auctioneer meanwhile making sounds with his mouth and wiping his weeping eyes on his near-silk handkerchief in an adjacent apartment, with an audience of a couple of thousand people pres ent. He ts Harry Cranke of Chinook. Wash. He was selling Herefords. He started in by intimating that a man who would start the bidding on as fine an animal as the one on the platform at the insignificant sum of $250 was not better than he o. rht to be and that he would call the atten tion of Chief Jenkins to the fact. The culprit immediately bid anoth er, against his own bid. Instantly were in the list of winners. A re markable feature of this herd lies in he fact that all but three out of an exhibit of 22 animals were bred by heir owners. Mr. McArthur was an interested spectator throughout the judging of the Jerseys and was also a close follower of the progress of the le Wednesday. B. C. Altman," Gresham, Or., won first place in the two-year-old heifer class with his Helier s Queen Maid and scored well up in the groups. Chester L. Mulkey, McMinnville, Or., took first place in both the senior and junior yearling heifer classes. - An thony Malar, Boring, Or., won first and seventh in the senior heifer calf class which brought out 32 entries- The Congdon & Battles herd or prize Aberdeen-Angus cattle from Highwood, Moiyt., will leave immedi ately after the close of the stock show to participate in the Chicago International stock show which will open next week. Oregon boys and girls were well to the front in prize awards on their stock exhibits. Every first prize but one was taken by them and the $1000 prize money offered in this depart ment has been distributed among the coming generation of stockmen in this state.

Its cadence almost proved, that the bidder was a gentleman and scholar and a good judge of that horse of Doris McCleave by the name of what is the name of that animal? In the meantime other bidders arise and the tones of the auctioneer sink almost to a. whisper as he endeavors to get another hun dred; then the tones become bitter, drastic, as cutting as a knife, when another bidder tries to sneak into the game on a bid of only a sawbuck. But he takes It, yea, he takes it, and knocks the Shorthorn down to- him with the advice that the purchaser has made a fortune and will know troubles no more forever. . From there I went out to give the Herefords, the Polled Angus, the Shorthorns and other beef breeds the once over. Once over! If one gives them the attention they deserve It would take more than one day to go over about six acres of this stock. In the very first row of stalls, 16 of them, - there were Herefords, those great, big, white-faced fellows. They belong to the Cook stock farm. Town send, Mont. Facing them were IS more belonging to Herbert Chandler of Baker, Or. Everybody in Oregon knows of the Chandler herd. He Is one of the top-notchers among the Hereford breeders of the west. So is Mr. Thiessen, for that matter. The next 16 belong to W. L. Vele of Highwood, Mont., then 32 from the farm of A. H. Barnum. Jloro, Or. Moro is in Sherman county, where a farmer that doesn't own an auto, a tractor, a gold watch, a two-carat diamond, a piano and a graphophone is ruled out of society. Well, I can't give all of the names of the exhibitors of the beeves. It would take a week to give the splen did array the notices they deserve. But I will mention Mrs. McDowell, "what keeps the hotel" In Prine ville. She and her partner, the firm name is Dixon and McDowell, have 21 head of the Aberdeen Angus, or Polled Angus, breed, those fine, black, hornless fellows. But let the reader take a day off and go out and see the wonderful animals on the grounds.' Remember, it is not a fake, neither is it a little county fair display. There are 3500 Animals, horses and cattle, there, and nearly as many sheep, goats and hogs. You may, if you have not been out there this year, imagine that you know all about it without going out. But you" don't. It is indeed so far above any other show of the kind ever held on the Pacific slope that yo.. will feel a wonderful pride when you see it and remember that it is an Oregon show. You owe it to your self, your city and your state to go and see it go more than once if you can. And also remember the great night horse shows. Did you ever see a million dollars' worth of horses at the same time? I'll bet you never did. But you can by going out tonight or tomorrow night. Harrisburg, Or.; third. S. O. Starr, Mon roe.

California Writer Sees Ttanid Growth in Future for Portland Livestock Exposition. The Portland livestock show is characterized as by far the best show of its kind on tne .Pacific coast by Hamilton Bassett of San Francisco. Pacific coast representative of the Horse Association of America and editor of the livestock department of the San Francisco Tribune. Mr. Bassett said that there was an especially fine showing of cattle and that the enthusiasm of the crowds put tne snow in a ciass Dy ltseir. He commented especially on the large crowds attending the horse show in spite of the weather condi tions. Mr. Bassett predicted that the next Portland show would see a - much greater representation of California breeders. There should be 25 or 3 breeders from California at the show when there are only about a half dozen," he said. This he said was due to the fact that California breeders did not realize the extent to which the Port land show had developed. Mr. Bassett said that it looked as though the shows put on at Portland, Chicago, Kansas City and Denver would dominate in the livestock in dustry. From here Mr. Bassett will go to Chicago to attend the international livestock show there. On the return be will attend the show at Denver. As a result of his attendance at the horse show Mr. Bassett, who has ridden as a jockey and in steeple chases, outlined the following "don'ts" for riders? 5 Don't stick the feet out in front of th norses snouiders; rest them naturally along-side the horse's body. Don t turn the toes out with the heels pressed in to the horse's sides; let the feet rest easily in the stirrups parallel with the horses sides, the knee xriDDine the saaaie, ieet loose. Don t lean back in the saddle: sit straight with body erect. Don't lean forward in the saddle ex cept to take the jumps. Don't the carry the reins under your cnir. ; Keep tne nanas aown. Don t ride the horse s mouth, not even on tne snatue ; use your knees and bal ance. Don't carry your whip like an um brella; carry it down. Don t jerk horse's head; his mouth is sensitive and his head a balance pole; loose his head at the jumps. Don't bounce in your saddle, take up tne jar who me anaies ana tne leg muscles. Don't mind the gallery; pay attention to your horse. Bad Checks Charged to Man. C. K. Edwards was arrested yester day by Police Inspectors Tichenor and Mallett on a charge of obtaining money under false pretense3 as a re sult of the protest made on numerous checks which he is alleged to have cashed following his marriage at Hood River last week. He is said to have admitted passing the checks. He came to Portland recently from Los Angeles. He Is being held to the etate grand jury. 88 ALIENS BECOME AMUCK War Veterans Take Oath to United States. - STUDENTS SPECTATORS Naturalization Proceedings Call Forth Pathos anl Humor as Citizens Are Made. Aliens came in crowds to the United States district court yesterday when Judge Wolverton heard natur alization masters, and as a result the United States has 88 more citizens today. Eighteen of these were for mer soldiers who forsook their al legiance to their monarchs and took the tath to serve ' the flag under which they fought. There were number of serious moments during the hearings and some that had touch of humor, and as a whole the new citizens seemed to feel the im portance of the hearings. When Abel Eklund raised his hand and renounced his allegiance to the king of Sweden his little son, Charles Willie, aged three, stepped into " the box and raised his hand also, while the proud mother stood nearby and watched the two new citizens with moist eyes. Ouisippe Casciato was accompanied by his dark daughter of tender age when he took his final leave of Italy and adopted the Stars and Stripes as bis flag. Scotchman Take Oaf a. Many of the old members of Cap- i tain Hogan's troop A will remember George Ironsides, the canny Scot with the steady seat who taught so many of the rudiments-of equitation, and yesterday Ironsides formally left the kilted land forever as a citizen of the United States., Bagat Singh, na tive of India, who served with the United States forces during the war and wag discharged with the rank of sergeant, was also one of the happy new Citizens.

STOCK JUDGES PRAISED EXPERTS COMPLIMENT TO SHOW, SAYS O. M. PLUMMER. Men Who Passed on Exhibits at Local Exposition Well Known in America and Abroad. The judges, who have just complet ed their work at the tenth annual International Livestock exposition were a distinct compliment to the character of the exposition and have gone far toward establishing its rep utation among stockmen of the coun try, O. M. Plummer, general manager of the exposition, declared yesterday Not only do the judges number men of national and international- repute among stockmen, but they include some of the outstanding cattlemen of the world. William Hartnett, Bue nos Aires, Argentina, came all the way from South America to preside over the Shorthorn exhibits. He i one of the largest Shorthorn breeders in the world and an importer of blooded cattle both from the United States and Europe. Stanley Pierce, Creston, 111., has not only qualified as a judge of Aberdeen-Angus through long experience at livestock shows, but he is a breeder of high grade stock.

Sisson Jr., Pottsdam, N, Y., Is known throughout the country as "the best liked judge of the Jersey breed." He pronounced the showing of Jerseys at the Pacific International as one of the most wonderful displays of the breed ever put on exhibition. Some classes which he judged had 80 entries. Albert Hill, Alexandria, S. D., who judged the Herefords, is very favor ably known throughout the northern states. Another prominent breeder who- is well known throughout the west is C. H. Hinman, Denver, Colo., who judged the milking Shorthorns. Holstein men are loud In their praise of W. S. Moscrip, Lake Elmo, Minn., who has completed his third year as Holstein judge here. He is a veteran among the national shows Joseph L. Hope of Madison, N. J., i acknowledged as a premier judge of Guernseys and stockmen say that an animal chosen winner by Mr. Hope s marked for life. John L. Smith, Spo kane. who judged the Ayrshires and Red Polled, has the distinction of be ing an accredited judge in almost everv breed of cattle. Judges of sheep included W. A. Me Kerrow, University of Minnesota member of the McKerrow family of Wisconsin, long famous in 6tck breeding circles, and J. H. Kins, Lar amie. Wya, who leaves here to judge i tne Chicago International next week. Bob Davis, Rio Frio. Texas, declared that Oregon's groats are the peer of breeding stock of the country and that Texas will look to Oregon lor foundation stock. After judging the exhibits here he arranged for the purchase of a buck which he consid ers one of the best in the country. Professor J. I. ThomDson. Davis. Cal.. formerly head of the University of California animal husbandry de- Salem, Or., field representative of the I Berkshire association on the coast. I were the expert hog men who passed j on the 1920 pens. Fat stock was judged by Fred Stemm. Union Stock lards, Chicago, head cattle buyer of one of the biggest packers in the country, and Manager Washburn of the Western Meat company, San Fran cisco, both keen judges of stock with years of practical buying experience.' Horsemen of equal distinction were judges of the exposition exhibits. A. Latimer Wilson, Creston. la., has judged draft breeds at the Chicago International and many other exposi tions.

HUSBAND BLAMES SPIRITS LAFAYETTE HUNTSMAN" SAYS SEANCES BROKE UP HOME. Answer and Cross-Complaint to Wire's Divorce Snlt Filed by Portland Lawyer. Spiritual seances had much to do with breaking up the home life of Flora M. Huntsman and Lafayette M. Huntsman, according to her husband's answer and cross-complaint to MrB. Huntsman's divorce suit. Mrs. Hunts man began annulment proceedings on the ground that she had not been legally divorced when she married the defendant in September, 1919. This ac tion was voluntarily dismissed and new complaint was entered last week, charging cruelty. Huntsman, wjio is a local attorney. in his answer, declared lodgers left his home because his wife bothered them about spiritualism and insisted on their attending her seances in the evenings. He declared she would pull down the shades, plug up keyholes and burn incense, then call on the spirits, which frequently asked her to dance with them." It was further stated in the cross-complaint that the plaintiff wished Huntsman to quit his law practice and take up spirit ualism as a business. The attorney said that his wife as sociated with improper persons and listed them as follows: One man who was arrested for having 30 quarts of whisky in his possession," another who was arrested for cohabita tion," another who was taken in cus tody for "beating his board bill" and another named Reese, arrested for burglary." He further declared his wife went to public dances with an individual known as "Cock-eye." Mrs. Huntsman, It was set forth in the first annulment suit in which she appeared before Presiding Judge Taz well, in 1904, was married to Ralph Clayton in Baker. She later discovered her husband was a woman and al leged that she consulted Huntsman when she wished to have the mar riage declared void. At that time, she alleged he wedded him, under the im pression that these details had been attended to while iij fact, the divorce was not actually granted until later. The judge took the case under ad visement, but dismissal was requested before he had rendered an opinion. MISS CAMERON AT CLUB Heilig Player Introduces Husband at Press Luncheon.

Miss Cameron will be the guest ol honor at a reception at the Press club tonight for her entire company. CLARINET PLAYER NEEDED Albany Chamber of Commerce Band Can't Practice. ALBANY, Or., Nov. 18. (Special.) "Wanted Clarinet Players. Albany Chamber of Commerce." This would be an appropriate want ad for Albany's commercial organi zation now for the chamber is very anxious to locate some clarinet play ers. Recently the chamber took the initiative in organizing a municipal band for Albany. A good many play ers turned out and prospects for a successful organization were fine. Then it developed there were no clarinet players in the list. Enough musicians have enrolled to make the band a large musical organization and a well-balanced one.
