Finch E sta c a d a , Hardware - Eighth C rload Shipped Buyer Lucke, last Monday noon, shipped the eighth carload o f livestock from the Estacada Stock Yards, since the opening of the yards in December. This carload comprised about 70 hogs and 4 head o f cattle, and brought the raisers o f the stock about $1,000. Few people realized at the time the yards were built at Estacada, that there was such a steady sup ply o f livestock to be shipped from this section, as the fall crop o f hogs had already been mar keted before the yards opened. Indications point to a continued shipping o f a carload every other week, as the spring hogs will soon be ready. At Canby and other points, June and July have been heavy months for the shippers, as the experienced growers realize that hogs can be grown on green feed during those months and fattened or topped off with grain before selling, and the summer months’ prices are always high. Owing to the time necessary for buyer Lucke to look over some of the stock, especially cat tle, on the farms before buying, the growers are requested to no tify this office as far in advance o f shipping date as possible. Several calls which were received here Saturday and Sunday were too late for last Monday’ s ship ment. Suggestions Wanted Harness the UROY P. WAIKTR. President THOMAS YOCUM. Vice President IRWIN D.
