The labor account for tho last two
years has been greatly Increased by
tho addition of another man nt the

The Increase In the fuel account
Is caused both hy the larger amount

Mr. and -Mrs. Dave McCaity of
Hutter creek, were In tho city today
for a visit with friends. Mr. Me
Carty Is one of tho pioneer stock
men of this county, and Is still In the
front rank of tho cattlemen. Ho Is
now feeding nearly a hundred bend
on his Hutter Creek ranch, and they
nro ready for tho market.
Last week Mr. McCartv sold ISO
head of steers to tho Northwestern
meat company ot Portland for four
cents a pound, and tho cattle aro
now delivered. He was offered
four and one-fourth cents by tho
Union Meat company of Portland
for future delivery, but refused tho
offer, as It would have taken more of
bis feed than tho gain would havo
amounted to.
This seems to bo In contradiction
to the report that the beef market
here would not range as high as four
cents for anything but future de
livered cattle. It seems that In
some parts of the county, at least,
the cattlemen are able to get some
figure for their bef that will pay
them for the feed put Into tho cat
tle. It may he thnt tho cattle
owned by Mr. MrCarty were of a
better grade and In better condition
than the common range cattle of
fered on the market, but the fact
remains that he found no difficulty
In selling for the hlghwntor figure.
