U. Conklin, Formerly of Pendleton, Purchases 100 Head. A deal was closed and the contracts signed at the Bank of Ontario yester day which mean that over 1900 head of rnngc cattle will be fed In that vicinity this winter and 4000 tons of surplus hay will thereby be consumed D. McGIU, a John Day stockman disposed of 1500 head of 3-year-old stoere to farmers who will feed thorn instead of placing their nay on the market. The donl represents about $60,000 capital. The cattle will come from Bear valley, Oregon, and will be delivered at Ontario about October IS. Mr. McGUI will also feed 300 head of his own cattle, and has al ready purchased sufficient hay for that purpose Another John Day stockman will also winter 100 head there. I Contracts were signed for 1625 head, as follows: A. A. Brown, pur chasing 176 head; A. J. Quackenbush, 17R; Tensen Bros., 250; Moody Bros., 250; John Roy. 250; J. A. Walters, 100; C. E. Amidon, 150; E. B. Conk lin. 100; W. C. Langlcy, 75. About 80,000 tons of hay Is raised In the Ontario valley annually and the farmers have been receiving good prices for their crop until last year, when the stockmen decided that they were asking too much and ns a result a large amount of last year's crop was left ovor. The farmers have now solved the hay problem by buying cattle and feeding their hay to them Instead of placing it on tho market, and it Is be lieved the result will be beneficial both to tho farmer and stockman.
