Smith-Powers Company Will
Have Large Cattle Ranch in
Neighborhood of Eckley.
Tho Smith-Powers Logging com
pnny has purchased tho big Guorln
ranch nt Eckley, ono of tho finest
stock ranches in southwestern Oro
gon, and somo additional proporty
thoro. It is understood to bo tho ln
tontlon'of tho Smith-Powers company
to uso theso ranches nnd additional
land holdings of tho O. A. Smith
company noar them for ono of tho
blggoBt cattlo and stock ranches in
this soction of tho Btato. Tho com
pany Is planning to start with a hord
of eighth undred to ono thousand
head of cattlo.
Tho company Is now planning to
rnlso all its own beef. It is claimed
that boof cattlo hnvo becoino so
scarco In this section as to mako tho
prices almost prohlbltlvo for supply
ing tho camps and boarding houses
of tho Smith-Powers andSmith com
panies. It requires about two critters n
day to furnish meat for tho camps,
boarding houses and vcssols of tho
compnnics. With a hord of 800 or
1,000 animals, It Is oxpected tho big
ranch will bo nblo to possibly furnish
somo of tho butter or milk used by
tho companies.
Tho section nround Eckloy Is es
pecially well adapted for stock rais
ing and grazing and for this reason
was selected by Mr. Powers as tho
location for tho new branch of their
indusrtics.
