4t That business conditions are 4fr
good in the interior is the re- !
port hrought buck to this city -fc j
by Henry Hahn of Wadhains 1
& Co. and one of the owners of ifr j
the Prineville Land & Livestock
Co. Mr. Hahn has just returned !
ie from an extended trip to his j
central Oregon properties and
reports conditions good al-
though the range. Is said to be ijt
lit extremely dry. "They are rals-
If- ing; many more hogs in the in- 4
terior than ever before," he
says, "In fact they are raising in
them In sections so remote from
transportation that only home
consumption can be figured.
Mr. Hahn states tlmt there
will likely be less cattle placed 4
on feed this winter because of
the shorter hay crop.
