been present at the Portland
hearing, "Mr. Williaroa thinks

fied. Conference I'ropoetl
Mr. Williams was commenting
on a press dispatch from Klamath
Falls in which it was said that
the Klamath County Chamber of
Commerce will in the near future
call into conference at Klamath
Falls the service commissions of
both California and Oregon, and
declaring that each commission
had referred the Klamath county
citizens to the otheT commission
when they had appealed for help.
I am not censuring the Klam
ath Falls people because they
failed to appear at the Portland
hearing of the Interstate com
merce commission," said Mr. Wil
liams, "but had they been present
matters " doubtless would have
beenj simplified. They were no
tified of the hearing."
Itehcaring Allowed
The Portland hearing referred
to by Mr. Williams related to
cases against the. Southern Pacific
company brought by the Portland
Traffic association, the Medford
Commercial club and the Klamath
Commercial club and Business
Men's association. The hearing
involved freight rates in Northern
California north of Redding and
ennecially involved rates on the
Southern Pacific on the Klamath
Falls branch The case was first
heard in 1117 and subsequently
an order was issued setting the l
case for rehearing in January of
this "year. All the cases were
consolidated at the recent hearing

Friday morning at 7 o clock the

apparently desolate since Christ's

ning at 3:30 the Stations of the
Cross will be recited and a ser
mon on the crucifixion preached
by the pastor. At all services on
Good Friday the collection goes

other services during the week.
The services commence at 7
o'clock on Holy Saturday. A fire
is enkindled and the fire Is
blessed. The triple candle Is
lighted, which indicates the Most
Blessed Trinity, as. at. the proper
time is also the Paschal candle.
This latter Indicates Christ, the
Light of the World. The baptii
mal water Is also blessed, as well
as Easter water. ' Mass is said,
and at the Gloria1 the bells are
again rung and the whole church
takes on a joyful appearance In
dicative of the resurrection of
Christ, thus, in a measure, antici
pating Easter.
Everyone Is welcome to any or
all the services. Confessions will
be heard on Friday afternoon and
evening, and also on Saturday af
ternoon and evening. On Satur
day confessions will be heard In
English. French and German.

ond mass will be said, the girls
of the academy Hinging, and at
10:30 there will be a solemn
high mass with three priests of
ficiating and will be sung by the
regular choir. The sermon will
be preached by the visiting cler
gyman or the pastor. The col
lection on Sunday is for the Sem
inary, for the education of young
men for the priesthood. Dene
diction will follow last mass. All
strangers are cordially welcome.

Livestock men in eastern Ore
gon are optimistic, according to
a press bulletin by the state live
stock sanitary board. Tne win
ter just passed is reported as one
of the most favorable in years
for the livestock industry.
Farmers also are encouraged
with the overhead costt dropping
Laborers, who have been cut from
about Js5 to $50 a month, it Is
raid, have made little oblectlon.
knowing that a reduction In wages
is necessary.
The bulletin says In part:
SlK?op NhearrrV Vasi Drop.
"A trip through eastern Oregon
shows that the winter just ended
has been the most favorable In
many years for livestock. The
overhead which was eo ruinous
a year ago. has been cat to prac
tically one-fourth the costs of the
winter of 1919-20. Cheap feed
and mild weather have been In
part responsible for this.
"Material reduction has taken
place in labor costs. Ranch era
ployes, have been cut from $85
a month to something like $50
Sheep herders are now working
for from $60 to $75 a month
which represents a cut of 40 per
cent. Sheep shearers are asking
12' cents largely because this
price was established by the Utah
Sheep Shearer; union, who vol
Juntarily cut from 17 cents to
12. The growers are talking
10 cents and will have.no trouble
in filling the jobs at this price.
"The heavy fall rains produced
a luxuriant growth or grass and
all stock taken up in the fall
were in prime condition. Thla
was responsible for an early ma
turing! of all feel-lot stuff. .Prac
tically; everything -got fat this
year. As a result thre has been
an 'early marketing of pen-fed
animals and a fine growth of wool
and a bumper lamb, calf and colt
crop will be insured.
Confidence In Fstnrr Shown.
"Stockmen are optimistic. They
have been able to get along with
out much mon?y and have by
means of trading among them
selves, and In some Instances giv
ing their help an Interest In the
stock, been able to squeeze
through. They have been suc
cessful in cutting the overhead.
Labor has objected but little,
knowing that this was absolutely
necessary. A peculiar situation is
present in respect to sattle. Feed
ers are selling at market points
for practically as murh per pound
as killers, indicating confidence
in the future of the beef indus
try. The horse market Is Improv
ing. There is considerable demand
for stock to take the .place of
trucks and tractors. A number
or mares will be bred this spring.
Farmers feel the need of raising
nffieient colts to replace the
older horses, worn out or sold to
avoid depreciation. Several years
ago horse raising enabled the cen
tral eastern Oregon wheat farm
ers to pull through several short
crop seasons. The present price
for grains and hay bring horse'
expense per year below $100.
Small tractors cost at least $600
(covering operation, depreciation
and repairs) annually, hence more
than six head of horses will haf
to be replaced In order to pay out
under present conditions.
Mwey I Karetl.
"Eastern Or-gon stock growers
are determined to pull through
the pi-e.sent period of depression.
Hankers state that there has ben
enough money saved during the
pat-t six months to recoup much
of the loss that has been sus
tained because of growers not
selling at top prices. Stockmen
realize that the only way In the
long run that one can lose in the
stock game Is to lose the stock.
This year there has been no dis
ease Jos?: neither has there been
(torm loss, nor has there leen
any considerable amount of loss
rrom forced liquidation. If there
ever have ben losses in thentock
industry, either the stockman or
the banker have been at fault
the stockman, perhaps, because
he has given up; the banker be
cause h? has lost faith. Any stock
man that has stood off failure
unm now is surely through the
worst of It. The banker who ha
helped him is now well able to
see the fruits of his good Judg
ment.
