Conditions to Be Improved After Iron none Begins to Puff. (Special PUpatch to Tbe Journal.) Klamath Falla, Or., Jan. 27. Cattle men report that thla winter haa been tha best for cattle, in Klamath county. of any winter in the past 16 years. Tbe moderate weather and the small amount of snow have allowed the cattle to be out at pasture all winter, and ao far it has not been necessary to feed them a single day, and they are In prime condition. Horace V. Mitchell, a prominent cat tleman, is very optimlstlo concerning the future of Klamath county as a cattle country. He states that while the lack of transportation and the high price of hay makes the business a speculation at present, that when the ..11... i.Hva .An(lflAni will Ha m o . terlally changed, both aa regarda ahlp- ments ana tne price oi nay. This county has the largest an cheapest ran re in the state, and the climate and aeneral conditions combln to make it an Ideal cattle country. H also slates that sugar beet pulp and tons have Droven very aucceasful fatteners. and that with the possibility or an unlimitea supply or nay, tnn county will be able to compete success FOREIGN LOSS CNTTIIIG WHEAT Values Here About lc Lower , on Account of Weak ness in Liverpool. Foreign wheat weaken and tha con tlnuad lack of oriental flour business la causing weakness and accumulation In tha local wheat situation. Today'a prlcea here are practically lo a bushel lower. Tho fact that Liverpool waa weak and uninviting at tha atart and cloalng to day, while Chicaao had a a harp rally, added to tha depression here. Liverpool la atlll in tna marxet tor our wheat, but of lata tha trade there haa ahown a disposition to shade quotatlona. In tha interior the movement to mar ket atlll ramaim heavy but late pur ohaaea ara not ao heavy. There is no oriental bualneaa offering and is not likely to be any coming from Japan for aoma time because of the stiff tariff there on flour aa compared with the duty on wheat Many mora Inaulrlea are betnr re ceived locally for oata and barley from easterners, but thua far no ordera have been reported. Quotatlona are aettln closer together every day and some business is likely to result at any time. Hay market la weaker though quota tlona ara nominally unchanged. The mlkl weather haa causad many In terior holdera to decide to unload and a number of cars ara now in the cltv awaiting purchaser Dealera aeem In no mooa to out si trie moment, al though it la believed that some con cessions in value would be allowed by riellers, wbo aeem quite anxious to et go.
