NEVADA RnNINO STOCKS. By Hyman H. Cohen. Portland Union Stockyaxda Sent. 18. This waa a week that did not show op tha livestock industry of the Paclflo northwest In a very good light. Most of the stock that arrived was of very poor quality In fact so much so mat Duvers aia not care to ao business. It has ceaaed to be a question of getting a iavoraoie price ior gooa stuir, nut. where can good quality be secured at nv price. No longer do livestock shippers say they cannot find a market for good quality that will pay them for produc ing it. tne records or the livestock market during the past few weeks clearly showing thati killers are more than willing to nay a good premium for quality. Tha Paclfio northwest Is full of skin ny or half-fat livestock despite the fact that stock can Da more easily rattened and at less expense here than in any other part of the country. In the local yards of late it has been the exception instead of the rule, for first class stock to arrive, and packers are wondering whether they will be compeled to send to tha east to secure fattened cattle or sheep. It is a certainty that finished stock cannot be seoured In the Pacific northwest for packers and killers have been shouting themselves hoarse for weeka In order to attract tne attention of those who may have this quality to dispose of. For several years the big Backers of the Paclflo coast have been compelled to send to the east In order to aupply their needs of well-finished hogs. In stead of the high prices here being an incentive for atockraen to bring out larger supplies of fattened hogs, there is practically no chance In the arri vals here aa com Dared with the same periods in recent years. This, too. de spite the fact that the population of the three states has doubled within the same period and -consequently tha de mand for hogs and hog products Is thereby much increased. Stubble-Fed HofS Wont Do. Turnine: tha hogs into a stubble field and allowlnv them to shift for them selves to get half fat or starve, is about the w&v that moat of the raisers do; from tha appearance or lata arrivals here. There seemed to ba no attempt at fattening them although the prof its from fattenlne- hoaa at the present price (and real fat stuff would prob ably bring more) even though grain prices ara weu up in Tne air. inn much has been proven time and again by the Oregon Agricultural college and Dy private producers. 76 ToUl sales. t7.600 aha res.

All tnis money goes away from the state every yeai never to re turn but every cent of it could be kept here If the hogs could ba had. There are a few feedera of eattle In the Pacific northwest who ara making the slightest complaint over the prices they receive for their stock. There are very few of them, however. Bo few real s-ond feedera ara located in the northwest that sometimes the killers themselves are forced to buy feed stock j ana finlsn it necause producers win not do it. There is an urgent aemana now on for fat cattle but the supply is scant and competition so keen that prices are bid nigner. Tjivsstoek During the Weak.

Those who did bring fat hogs, cattle or sheep to marKet, received aaequaie returns, wnn miirlt aale. but shlDimrs of poor Quality are loud in their complaints because of the slow sale ana slower price. At the present time Portland is one of the best livestock markets In the country and win be man Detrer as soon afl producers learn that It pays to ship best quality to market Poor stuff should be kept at home and fattened. There are four regular livestock com mission firms nere at tnis time ana everv one of them Is anxious that pro ducers learn that tt does not pay to ship orr-grade stock, rne nrms repre sented are: Benson & Gould, J.
