No matter how much snow may fall in the vicinity of Pendleton, and tho surrounding hills, on the Tutullla, Wild Horse and north of the city, thero is a strip of country 15 miles south of this city that enjoys a warm current of air, which either prevents n heavy fail of snow when other por tions of the country get It, or elso molts the snowfall avny, immedi ately, so that Rtrip of country is bare most of tho year, although snow in great quantities may be seen all around It. There seems to bo a gap through the Blue mountains which permits or attracts a chlnook wind, every win tor which keeps the foothills bare at all tlmos. Settlers out 1C miles south of Pendleton Bay that tho recent snowfall which amounted to eight Indies in this city and the surround ing country, amounted to but three uud four Inches in that chlnook belt, aud that lasted but a day or two, when the bare hills began to show through the Bnow. Farmers and stockmen who have lived In that vicinity for years, say It is a regular occurrence, and not an occasional freak of tho weather. It Is an actual fact that there Is a belt of country, from five to oight miles wide, about 15 miles Bouth of Pen dlot'on which extends east and west across tho county from the foot of tho Illuo mountains, which seems to ho in a warmer current, and which is visited regularly with warm winds, which uncovor tho foothills earlier In the spring and keep them uncovered later in the fall, than any adjacent torrltory.

KORPPB-N A BROTHERS Sheep Are Fat and Crowing Fine Fleeces Plenty of Dry Feed In the Country, and a Heavy Snow Would Have Its Advantages Sheep Mar. ket Is Dead Because of High Local Values. James Hackett, tho sheepman, has returned from a visit to his sheep on Spear's canon, and is very much pleased with tho appearance of things not only among his own sheep, but among those along tho .road to and irom his holdings. Judging from what ho has seen of his own and oth,er sheep, and from what ho has heard from those coming from different sections of tho county, the sheep of Umatilla aro In bettor condition this year than thoy wero at tho same season of last year. All of tho flocks are fat and in good condi tion, and the wool Is henvy and grow ing fast. The ewes are giving prom ise nf vlnlfllnir n irnnri tnprnnflrt Mils year, and taken altogether the sltua-' tion is decidedly encouraging to the sheepmen. Good Pasturage. The pasturage Is good, tho grass being strong and plenty of it. Owing to the favorable weather that t has been In evidonco during part of tho winter that has past, there Is more grass now than there has been at this time for several years past, and t.ho sheep are taking advantago of the abundance to put themselves in as good condition as the grower could wish. The crisis In tho sheep situation ls now practically past, for the pastur age has been so good that the grow ers have not been compelled to feed a wisp of iheir hay throughout this county, and now it Is so late In tho season that u there was a long and hard snow to. oome it would work a benefit to the growers rather than the reverse, because it would rest tho pasturage and compel the men to feed whllo the ranges could rest, aud the grass would grow under the snow so that when the warm weather came nnd uncovered the grass it would have such a start and tho ground would be in such good condition that there would bo no question as to tho outcome of the season. Plenty of Hay. There Is plenty of hay In tho coun try and It Is already provided by tho sheepmen and is here to uso, so that if the snow was to como and tho sheep had to bo fed it would work no real loss, but a gain in the future condition of the ranges. For this reason It is thought by all of tho growers that a snow would bo bene ficial and that the tlmo Is too far to wards the spring for damage to be dono by oven a hard spell of weather at this time. The sheep market Is as good as dead at this time as far as tho grow eis selling is concerned, for they have no incentive to sell at this time of the year. All their feed has been paid for and the woo) on tho sheep is growing fast. In fact, is in bettor condition now than It was last year at this time, and they havo nothing to do but to wait for tho shearing season, now 90 days away, before they will begin to realize on their winter's Investment. There ''are a few buyers through the country, hut they are having a hard timo to furn ish mutton to tho market of tho city. Thoy cannot afford to pay enough n tho growers to overcome tho estimat ed value of the ficeco and make a profit on their mutton. For these rea sons there Is little doing In tho sheep business outside of the simple mat ter of herding and feeding until the tlmo comes for, the harvest of the spring and early summer's wool crop. Promising Wool Outlook. Tho wool outlook is brighter now than It was last year, for thero Is better range than at that time, tho grass is stronger, aud there is more of it, so that the sheep havo had more nourishment and as a consequence tbe lloocea aro extra heavy and grow lng fast. If the present conditions keep up the coming clip will bo Mio heaviest one In several years, at least that is the opinion of tho men who own tho sheep and handle them. Kverything is brlghtor in outlook, grass, weather- conditions, Increaso and wool thaplt was a year ago, and the sheepmen are correspondingly ju bilant. VISITING J. E. 8MITH. Colonel J. D.
