The Rising Market Caused by a World-Wide Scarcity of Sheep Australia and South America Being the Heaviest Losers—California is No Longer a Competitor of Oregon. But is a Consumer of Outside Mut ton and Wool. The sheepmen seem isuh hopeful ami eonrtdent as regards the prospects for the summer and fall market for sheep on the hoof. They note not only that prices have appreciated of late, hut that the general tendency is up ward The recent advance from $'. 5«« to $2 for yearlings, and for oth er classes in proi«ortton excuses thei> optimism, while the explanation is found in the almost universal shortage of sheep in the greater mutton cen ters in other parts of the world, fol lowed of course, by a comparative scarcity that is reflected in the bulled markets of the world. In South America great floods have depleted the sheep flocks to such an extent that the sheepmen, stunned by their disasters, do not even attempt to estimate their losses. In Australia it is believed that 100.- tW.OOO sheep have died as the direct result of drought during the past three years One Australian alone lost four- fifths of his sheep, which numbered 1.250.«too when the droughts set in three years ago this fall. The monied flockmasters of Australia are in some districts importing hay at $6«' a ton to keep their blooded rams and high grade br«-e ling ewes a!iv< Some have been known to buy immense quanti ties of blackstrap molasses and the coarse sugar product that is its by product. and by strewing them upon brush and coarse feed otherwise un- pala.able. induce their sheep to eat enough to keep alive while waiting tot the rains. The Umatilla sheep raisers also call attention to the fact that California has become a consumer of outside mutton and wool instead of being a com pe it or of Oregon and the North west in general. As many sheep of all grades have been sold this year as ever before in any one year up to th.s date in the sea son. and sor> durably more than last year also. Tae prospect for still heavier later sales is improving ev ery uay. as the buyers' agents remain on the ground and inquiries from buy ers in the East who who have no agents in the field are more insisten than ever before. PRAISES UMATILLA. Tom Richardson Enjoys the Rich Country Adjacent to Pendleton and Speaks Highly of Its Prospects. Tom Richardson, manager of the Portland Comgaereia IClub. who au dressed the citizens of Pendleton. Monday night, praises the country he saw near Pendleton, on this, his first visit to this section. In speaking of his trip, the Morn ing Oregonian of yesterday says; While in Pendleton. Mr. Richard son was the guest of the Commercial Clnb and was taken for a drive on Monday over the fields in the vicinity of Pendleton, where he was shown rhe whea' both standing in the field and in the process of being harvest ed. On the road to Pendleton the ir rigated lands were pointed out to Mr Richardson, and he was shown much land lying along the track which is soon to oe put under water, either by private enterprise or by the government. Mr. Richardson is very much im pressed with the prospects of Uma tilla county, "it is a great country.” he said, in speaking of -is visit, "and the opportunities for development are boundless "When the land around Echo is put under water, as it is now partially, it will make the most productive part of the state. The soil will grow any thing and the climate is all that could be desired, making . a paradise that only waits the touch of water to make it bloom and spring to the front. "Umatilla county, with its wheat, stock, woo! and all the varied things that can be grown on irrigated ground has a future before" it second to no county in the Northwest.” Night Was Her Terror. "I would cough nearly all night long.” writes Mrs. Cfiarles Applegate of Alexandria, Ind., “and could hardly get any sleep. I had consumption so bad that If I walked a block I would cough frightfully and spit blood, but, when all other medicines failed, three 11.00 bottles of Dr. King’s New Dis covery wholly cured me and I gained 58 pounds.” It’s absolutely guaran teed to cure coughs, colds, la grippe, bronchitis and all throat and lung troubles. Price 50c and $1.00. Trial bottles free at Tallman & Co.’s drug store. DR. CHRISTIE OBJECTS. Says the Article Copied From Pacific Homestead Was Misleading and Un just. Dr. J. Christie, deputy state veteri narian, takes exceptions to an article copied by the East Oregonian, from the Pacific Homestead, reflecting on his official acts in dipping the C. B Wade cattle in this city just prior to the auction of the herd last spring. He says The tuberculosis test made by him on this herd of cattle was thoroughly scientific and in regular order, and that the charges made for the service were fixed by Dr. McLean, state veterinarian. These tests, he claims, are more matters of judgment and exercise of THE WHOLESOME CRESCENT and Phosphate BAKING POWDER BETTER THAN THE OLD-TIME CREAM OF TARTAR POWDER8. .y; Short orders at Gratz's $1.25 ba - at the Boston Geiser threshers at Kunkel's Drag and disk harrows at Kunke s W W Wolf, of Echo, is here today.
