Prices jumped from $8 to $8.40 and SS.50, bulk of Hsht hop. sold at $S.1." and $S..'1.", but several sales nt the higher figures were innde. An ejercmely Miort supply, eager domnnd for live hogs by kill ers all over the coast, severe cold weather ea-t of the mountain'., csnrcity of finished stock ready for shipment were the principal factor having an influence on the market's aviation. Sheep house activity was in its first power Monday and Tuesday. Grain fed wether sales off cars at $3.7."i and uwos at $4.G." featured. Lamb top was fCfiO, with n consid erable quantity offering. Trade if weak for poor (grade mutton but seems to ran to fnncv choice qunlitv Receipls have been about twenty per cent low than fr same period a week ago. KILL WRONG PERSON HAUCEL.ONA, Feb. 9. Strong forces of mounted civil guards were patrolling tlio nt recta horo today, u sharp lookout wbr kopt for bomb? ant) loading radicals wcro being lockod up as a rosult of yesterday's cttempt to aseasslnato General Os-sorio-Callardo, who was governor at tho time of tho 1009 riots. On account of the sovorlty with which ho put down tho outbreak and because tho radicals regard him as u Mttor reactionary, Ossorlo-Callardo Js widely hated, and while ho was making a political speech yestorday a crowd waited ouUldo to kill him. Vhon an automobile finally started V) loavo, tho throng thought ho was In It, and doanltu repeated polleo charges, riddled It with bullets. Its occupant, who was killed, was a pri vate citizen.

Hay, HOG MARKET L VESTOGK FEA ALWAYS PESTS TO FIGHT 0NF4 frequently hours fruit-raising doeriod on nocouut of tlio numerous pests it is noeessury to Tight to in ure n crop or oven mi orchard. Tot almost any other industry is eondueted with equal hazard. External vigi lance is the price of success in almost every line nowadays. The orchardist often has to fight the pest hut the farmer fights the drouth. Crops of all kinds failed last year in certain distriMs of the middle west duo to a hlis tering sun and lack of moisture. Then unusual tiold often kills the winter grain. Tho orchardist has Iho advantage ho has learned how to successfully fight tho frost as well as tho pests. Blight ruins largo areas of orchard when it is not vig orously comhattod. but vigilance will successfully conquer it. The owners of tho celebrated Hloch pear orchard in the Santa Clara valley, who wcro here hist week, stated that blight was not feared at all in their district, and its ravages almost forgotten, though at ono time it threat ened to destroy all their pear orchards, as it did those of districts further north. Prompt and continuous action conquered the scourge. Frequently ono hoars that hogs and alfalfa tiro much more profitable than fruit raising, and that they are com paratively free from the incessant war with destroying pests. Yet tho alfalfa field is as subject to damaging insects and organisms as orchards, and a host of parasites prey upon tho hog. Hogs face a worse scourge than blight n bacterial disease much similar in origin attacks the animal as tho blight organism docs the tree hog cholera. Hog cholera in 1DUJ cost Iowa fanners more than $no.000,000. according to statistics on the epidemic re cently gathered bv the agricultural extension department of Iowa State college. Director W. .J. Kennedy estimates that the loss aggregated not loss than $.W,720.000. "That is conservative," ho says, "and is two and a half times as great as in 1JM2." Hog cholera was more or less preva lent in every county in the state last year, although some suffered loss. than o per cent. Iowa is but ono state, and the toll from cholera in all is heavy. Yet it can be successfully resisted, just as blight can be. in fact it is an easier problem to prevent hog cholera than it is blight. The state and government both aid the breeder with hog anti-toxin, and the largo loss is due to carelessness, shiftlossnoss and inefficiency of the hog raiser even more than blight is due to the same quali ties in tho fruit raisers. As a result of the hog raisers incapacity to protect himself, state and county hog inspection is being enforced, just as fruit inspection is in this district, and the farmer forced to protect himself and his neighbors just as the or chardist is here. All together, the chances of the orchardist are just as bright or brighter than those of the farmer, but the one most apt to succeed in tho long run is tho on who com bines both occupations and does not place all eggs in one basket. Medford Proud of By A. D. Cridgc In Oregon Journal. If ou raise a load of cabbages near Medford you do not take thorn to a middleman to ship to a middleman, to sell to a wholesale Jobber, to sell to a retail grocer, to soil to tho con sumer. Not In Medford any more. You tako those cabbages to tho Med ford murkct where you sell thorn to tho man or woman who will cook or eat them, tho result being that the grower guts 25 por cont more, and the consumer pays 2i por cont lets than would otherwise bo tho case with all tho Jobbers and mlddlors In between. Then you take your cash In hand and buy the varied products of civili zation from tho Medford merchant, and go homo a more satisfied farmor. a bettor cltlxen and a booster for Oregon and Jackson county. Croud or tlio .Market Medford Is proud of her free mar ket. It Is going to be extended, ampli fied, Improved, poraapg even boaut! fled In t hi. -so of time. "It Port land wants a froo market wo can show how to get It." says Council man C. II. Millar. "All that Is neces sary Is for tho llcenso collector mid tho obstructor and tho mossback to get out of tho way and give tb far mer and the consumer a euauea to swap and shako hands " Councilman Millar Is right, snd ho Is one of tho men who hoipad to bring this happy condition about In Med ford. During tho coming year the French Briar The brlar-plpo Industr) of France U, for all practical purpose of Invostlgo tlon, rentorod In tho small town of St. Claude. In tho department of tho Jura, where not only pipes but cigar otto and cltnr holders nnd other kin dred necessities of the smoking world aio manufactured. The principal sources of supply from which French manufacturers ob tain tho briar roots aro, In order of Importance, Sicily, Cnlabrlu, Corsica and of late years, Algorla. A small quantity Is also obtained from tho French departments of the Var, Py renees Orientates and tho Alps Murl times. Thoso roots, fashlonod Into rough blocks, containing sufficient wood to make ono or more, pipes, are sold ut 77 cents to 5 -72 per gross of 12 dozen. Tho pi Ices vniles according to tho actual coniaud and tho qual ity ot the ioois. Theso blocks aro Its Public Market Medford free markot Is going to Ihi an Important factor in tho continued prosperity of this splendid little me tropolis of prep: row ho Jackson coun ty. Not that tho opposition of some business men to tho prlnclplo has lioen dlipoltod by tho demonstration that It was to their Individual bene fit as woll as to the boneflt of tho community, and they have Joined hands with tho entire business ele ment In boosting for free markets, the extent of Its oporatlons will ho greatly cxtendod. Kuiourjigo running Tho free markot In Medford Is at tracting the attention of men seek ing small farms, and Is also encour aging diversified farming all direc tions. Of course the two big factors In a small farm are the man nnd tlio laud, hut most of all tho mnn. The free market Is not a cure for Indlf feront cultivation, caroless dairying, poor stofk, scrubby animals, or In dolence and Ignorance. To tho up-to-date small farmer It nffords an outlet for his products at cash foun dation figures. To the man willing to suit his un used or Indifferently used or per haps positively abused land It lirlugs, or helps to bring, n pur rsser. This doos not mean that H will bring a purchaser willing to pay unreasonable and extortionate prices, but liko utory other advantago that Medford has It helps to bring th.it bujor. Pipe Industry known as obauchons, or rough shapes. Tho annual production In Franco Is tstlmnted at $1,930,000 to 2, 310,000, representing about 15,000. 000 pipes. Of thoso not mora thun ?19.'!,000 worth, or about 2.000,000 plpoa, uro "unfinished," and aro for oxport. It Is said that a largo pro portion of tho fco-called "Kngllsh" pipes are entirely manufactured at St. Claude and uie exported ready for sale. Considerable secrecy Is ob served, because of tho many at tempts that have been made to Jn sldo Information nnd to Induce French workmen to go ubroad with the promise of extremely high wages. Tho uvcrat'o wholesale prlco of a pipe sold at retail at 48 cents is 2.31 por doon, and this may bo taken as a basis for estimating tho whole sale price of both the more expensive and tho cheaper varieties.
