A very unsatisfactory trade in cattle this week from a seller's standpoint. There has been a very slow demand for beef, especially the half fat stock beinir marketed. Outlet for any quantity in large incapacitated. Prime steer top at $7.65 shows the weakness. Good cows at 6.85 featured, but bulk of she stuff was sold 6.00 to 6.50 Favorable Comment on Local Enterprise Perhaps the most ambitious co operative enterprise yet launched among the farmers of Oregon is that which has just been organiz ed in tho Harney Valley. To take oyer and conduct a flour mill that will supply, a wheat raising community with the finished product, thereby saving the consumers the double trans portation charge and the extra profit, is a practical application of the co-operative theory that deserves to succeed. If it does succeed it will offer a solution of the distribution problem which will give to the wheat producers the best price that the market affords, and at the same tirile favors the consumers who in this case may be to a considerable percentage the producers them selves - in the items of freight charges and greater profit, which take money out of the community and help to diminish its net revenue. There is abundant opportunity in this state for the duplication of this same co-operative enter prise not necessarily in the ' muMnr ..t' ll.nii- t i : 1 1 1 1 1.- t 1 1 1 1- hill Butcher trade generally a shade !jn fmit cannjnj, j butter mak- PREMIUM WINNERS AT HARNEY COUNTY FAIR Awards Made and Premium Warrants Issued by Secretary.

Much flabby pork is being liquidated and killers manifest slight in terest. Receipts were largr than for last week. 8.60 can be considered extreme top at week's close. Sheep house had an active business Tuesday and Wednes day but has quieted down since. Some real choice ewes selling at 3.80 and 4.00 and a few yearlings a 4.25 to 4.50 featured the mutton trade.

Port land Telegram. Most Popular Breeds Of Horses In Oregon The most popular breed of horses in Oregon is the Percher on, according to the report of the Oregon Hoard of Stallion Re gistration just issued by the secretary, Professor K. L Potter, head of the Animal Husbandry department of the Oregon Agri-1 cultural College. On June 30, 1913, there were 766 licenses of j pure bred stallions effective in1 the state, 32(1 of which were is-1 sued for Percherons. As might be expected, Perchcron grades likewise lead in this class, with 151 out of a total of 348 grades. The next most popular breed is the Belgian, with 112 licensed stallions. In the grade class, I however, this breed takes fourth place, with a registration of 23. The race for third place in the pure bred class is a tie between the Shire and Clydesdale, with 68 each. The contest is made more interesting by the fact that the same breeds are tied in the grade class for second place, with 27 each. Other favorite breeds in the pure bred class are the Standard j Bred, 93; German Coach 64; French Draft, 29. There are, but 5 Thoroughbred and 2 Shet- j land stallions in the state. Umatilla county, the home of I the "Let 'Er Bucks." has 70 pure bred registered 'stallions, leading by long odds, all the other coun-1 ties of the state. In the register ed grades Umatilla has 22 and a like number in the mongrel class, the entire number of licensed stallions being 114. Its nearest competitor in the pure breeds is ! ...iL. li'i 1lt.il. .1 Ki.ll.lt I' Marion, WIUI uo. umun wy i has one more licensed stallion than Umatilla, 115, but only 67 are in the pure bred class. Clatsop and Hood River counties have but one Itotntsd stallion each. Avoid Sedative Cough Medicines. If yjni want to contribute direct to the occurrence of capillary uronctiilis. anil pneumonia uuc cough medicines that contain codine. morphine, heroin and other sedatives when -you have a cough or cold. An expectorant like Chamberlain's Cough Reme dy is whut is needed. That cleans out the culture beds or breeding places for the germs of 1 pneumonia and other germ Uis- I eases. That is why pneumonia never results from a cold when Chamberlain's Cough remedy is used. It has a world wide repu tation for its cures. It contains no morphine or other sedative. For Hid'' by all dealers. The secretary of the Fair As sociation has issued the warrants covering the awards of premiums at the county fair. Pour distinct exhibits were selected from the pavilion display and shipped ui to the railroads and eastern land shows, thus furthering the ad vertising of this big country. The premium awards of the fair are given below. Not being familiar with the method of keeping each division and ristt separate on the entry books by the superintendent of the pavilion it is hard to make an intelligent report on the awards as to class. For instance, the dry farmed and irrigated products arc so mixed that in some instances il ii .in possible to designate which class the award belongs. The exhibits by the teho 1 children were good but only a few competed. The Hag present ed by Mrs. C. C Chapman to the school district making the lust exhibit was awarded to Barns district.
