Is the fact that a bumper fruit crop is

Pilot Hock sheep man, and proprietor
of the. i. E. Smith Livestock Co. who
was In Pendleton today. And in.sup

put forward Bdmemighty-interesting j

cases, ho has owned gentle horses
which developed Into the kind that
make riders exert themselves to the
limit In order to "stay."
There was "Smithy," a little mare
who finally became, a star actor In the
Hound-Up. At the first parade at the
big show, the little mare then little
more than a colt, was In Mr. Smith's
own string of pack horses, and she
was a model pack horse. Later, how

That there Is likely to be a heavy

lambs from rancher and ylicep con
cerns in Southern Idaho. ' .
' A local" bah R has recetvtd 'a 'query

of securing a maximum of S0.000 head
of lambs and ewes. The name of the
company seeking the information was
not divulged, but it is said to be one
of the largest companies' in the neigh

, This concern indicates that it will
be in the market for between 2(.000

lambs, and it wants from 15,000 to 20,-

Southern Idaho, finds itself with a
heavy hay crop on its hands and a de
