The weather hns been favorable with only one slight rain to stop the progress of storing and stacking. All crops are In good condition. The next Job Is the rounding up of the beef cattle and putting them in pastures and have them handy to look at when the buyers come around. Cattle are in good condition this year and prices a little better than last. There was a horse buyer here last week who bought a carload to ship to Honolulu. He was a native of that country and stated that if his pur chase proved a success he would be back here In six weeks and buy more. He paid good prices for 1200-pound horses.

FIGHT WITH BEAST, Occurred at Hock Creek Near Camp of Judge Currey. What Is believed to have been the biggest wrestle with a bear since the days of Jacob and the angel took place Friday night on Rock creek In the vicinity of Judge Alf L. Currey's camp. Exact particulars are difficult to obtain but the story is something like this, with Judge Currey as the hero: -A man named lllerton has a small cabin on Rock creek near the camp of Judge Currey and other Bakerites who are enjoying the scenery of the mountains. Shortly before daylight on Saturday morning lllerton awoke with the conviction that there was a boar in his ckbin. He got up and ran against the bear. The bear was very hungry an 1 tiled to eat lllerton. lllerton protected himself with a shovel nnd yells. The yells awakened Judge Currey who was camped near by and he came to the rescue. With a shovel and a pick the two men made enough noise to awaken every man on the mountain from the Max well mine to Haines. In the morning when the smoke of battle had cleared away all that was dlscernabie were the bare foot prints of Judge Currey hitting a hot foot down the creek road toward Haines. That Is why Judge Currey came to town Saturday afternoon. He re turned today with a gattllng gun and a wbale harpoon. lllerton has a ri fle but no cartridges.

Owns, in Conjunction With Drum heller, Immense Stock Farm. Fay LeOrow, cashier of the First Xational Bank of Athena, is one of the principal owners In one of the largest stock ranches In the north west, says the Athena Press. The big cattle ranch is situated in the Crab Creek country up in Wash ington. Last year Mr. LeOrow and the Drumhellers of Walla Walla pur chased the lands and hundreds of head of Hereford cattle of an English lord. An Idea of the magnitude of this great ranch may bo had when It Is learned that 15 sections of land are under fence, in addition to thousands of acres of outside range which the company controls by virtue of watei lights. Several thousand head of cattle forage on this excellent range, for the Crab Creek lands are noted for suc culent grass and plenty of It. Nearly all of the stock ranging there Is owned by the company, and nearly every head '.3 marked with the white foot of the Hereford. This year In that portion of the range under fence, 1100 head of little white-faced Hereford calves sport and play on the hillside, and next year thero will be a greater number, for only barren calves and heifers are be ing sold out of the cow herds. An Interesting sight it is to see 1100 calves In one bunch, and more Inter esting still, when you cannot tell "one from another," for with their well known Hereford characteristic, they all look alike to yon. Over 800 head of beef cattle have been sold from the ranch this season the greatest number being purchased by Walla Walla buyers. L Salic Street Station i-Used by Rock Island-Frisco Lines.
