One of the big packing houses of the city in troduced retail markets and riegan cut ting the price of meat believing that by so doing they could not only reduce the cost of living but at the same time ma terially increase the consumption. In dependent butchers tried to make the packing bouse cut out its retail markets; the packing house refused with the re sult that the meat war began. On ac count of the high price of beef in the eastern market last summer and fail there has been created in the North west a scarcity of cattle; cattle which would have ordinarily come to the western market went east. There are not enough cattle to go around. The pre diction is made that within a few months local retailers will be compelled to pay a far bigger price for their cattle than were paid by the eastern dealers a few months ago. Certainly the meat war which is now on in Seattle has re duced the cost of living. Meat which a few weeks ago was selling for twenty sod twenty five cents a ponnd can now be bad for ten. fifteen and twenty cents Nerer tn the history of the city has so much meat been sold as during the past two weeks. There is no indication that the war will soon end ; on the contrary there is every indication that it will continue for six months. PLEASANT HOME IN 1920—A PROPHECY BAZAAR AND CHICKEN PIE SUPPER SUCCESS LAMBERE & THOMPSON DISPOSE OF BUSINESS LENTS ATHLETIC CLUB HOLDS SMOKER Word ia being sent oot that the ex tention of the Mt.

The entire length of the new line, from Portland's city limits to Bandy will paan through one of the moat prosperous sections of country in the state. From Powell Valley on the soil is especially fertile. Hay an»i vegetable«» are abund antly productive. All this section has been heavily wooded in times past and much of it will have to be cleared. But at that it offers an opportunity to buy ers that cannot be outclassed in any other part of the state. It will cost something to clear this land, but when it is cleareil it is not excelled anywitere in the weet. Ita convenience to market and its good climate will appeal to every hotneaeeker. Fuel will be ch«*ap up tliat way for a long time. When the for»-»tx have all been eleareii off the n«*arby na tional reserve will afford »greatresource for fuel and lumbering, for undoubtedly the government will find a way to dis pose of mature timber and downfalls. The scenery is grand. Mt. Hool and miles of the Cascade Range are in view every clear »lay. There is an abundance of water just from mountain springs. The road will enter Sandy from the west an<l will follow along the Bluff's to the north, about six blocks away from what is now the businere part of town. The view from this point is gran»i beyond comparison with anything to be seen in this part of the county. The bluffs of the Sandy drop abruptly to the north to the river which appears to be a good thousand feet below. The view is un interrupted for ten miles northward, an<l for 25 miles to the east, where Mt. Hood fills up the ea«tern end of the canyon. It is worth going mil«*« to see and we susp«*ct that Sandy will tn* the picnic point for hundreds of p«*ople who will spend the day on the t*dge of this bluff drinking in the ¿reat natural pano rama. The I^nts Athletic Club held a smo ker with a lioxing bout for entertain ment at their hall on Tuesday evening. Bud Stevens failed to appear ar.d Bob Bush of Arleta took hi« place and al though he was at least 16 pound« lighter than Kid Expósito, be had the best of the first two rounds, and held his own in the third until hi« lack of training told on him. Many ringsiders say Ex pósito fouled to save himself. Bush says if he had known in time to train a little he would have easily won. Frankie Wands of the Multnomah Club refereed. The preliminary three-round go be tween Lyman Tillman and Kid Calhoun was a good one and the ‘‘draw” decision was popular, although Calhoun had the best reach ail the tim< and was 13 pounds heavier. Guy Barker, 120 lbs. vs. Harry Court ney, 128 lbs. was the fastest go ever seen in Lents. It was give and take from start to finish. Barker won in the third by a fluke.
