Bank of uiU 4 inefvr nutter Volume, Prices Up at Hermiston HERMISTON Oren Brace of Heppner topped the market at the Hermiston livestock auction Friday with a 1150 lb. registered Angus bull, which sold for $16.10 cwt, Delbert Anson, manager of the sale, reports. Volume was up sharply and the prices generally stronger. Four new highs were set at the sale. Anson reported, the highest prices in almost a year being paid. Drawing the top prices were O. O Brace, lone, receiving $21.80 cwt. for a short-fed grain fed Angus steet weighing 1020 lbs.; another lone consigner, Dar rel Padberg, who drew $24.50 cwt. for a 240 lb veal; Bruce Holt, of Stanfield, 9 feeder pigs, 735 lbs., $31.25 cwt., up $3.00; and C. M. Jackson, Hermiston, 1 red cow, 1020 lbs., $15.50 cwt. Consigned were 526 cattle, compared with 189 the previous Friday, 122 hogs, compared with 48, and 748 sheep, compared with 210. One consignment consisted of 582 head of breeding ewes, which went for $16.25 per head. Contributing to strengthening of the market was return in em phasis from poultry to meat, af ter the Thanksgiving to New Year poultry season, and the need to replenish meat lockers of the northwest, depleted over the holi days in an effort to reduce year end inventory to be declared for taxes. An unusual number of buyers was present, and demand was broad and active. A new Van couver, Wash., packer was rep resented, and both packer and feeder buyers were numerous. Quality was generally better, ex cept for fat hogs, with better fin ish and breeding stock represent ed Breeding ewes were of usual ly good quality. A few fed steers graded good. Cattle prices were generally one dollar higher, hogs down one dollar due to lack of finish. A few registered stock cattle were consigned. Due to the sale Friday are more registered cattle and good stock cows. Sheep will continue in strong demand at the semi-week, ly sheep sale, and good and choice grain fed steers are in de mand.

Jlk Newhry has reported. Ncwbry said the reduced toll this year, 90 below the 1952 count of 460, might also mean that Oregon led the nation in percent of death reduction for the year. Whether a reduction oc curred in over-all accidents and traffic injuries will not be known for some time, but state safety men said it appears that acci dents for the year numbered about the same as in 1952 while injuries may have increased slightly. Lowest post-war death toll oc curred in 1919, when 356 persons were killed The 1953 fatality count may increase somewhat, the Secretary cautioned, if de layed reports are received or if persons listed as injured later die. The month-by-month death toll for Oregon shows: 35 in Janu ary; 23, February; 28, March; 29, April; 36, May; 29. June; 35, July; 20, August; 12, September; 25, October; 27, November; and 25 in December. Mile for mile. January was the worst traffic month with 7.8 per sons killed in each 100 million miles traveled, while August pro duced the lowest mileage death rate, 4.6. Safety men said motorists should "lake seriously the toll of last January and make a concert ed effort to reduce the count this year". The best way to do that, they said, is to adjust speeds and other driving habits to meet winter driving condi tions. o T.NEED Envelopes, Phone 6.9228. Dr. E. K.
