(Oontlnuad on Pag )
i Prank Adams ot tha Adams
anna horse and cattle station, recent-
iv Mtablished in Wood River Valley,
has returned from a horse buying ax-
podltiou In Eastern Oregon ay way
of Paisley, Fort Rook, Wagontlra.

ing fifty head on tha trip, Thay will
bo taken to tha horse station oa the
Waad ranch, where iftout orees
nnd mules havo already been sent,
states Adams, who is buying with E.
Stewart of San Francisco.
Tho horso market Is close, It bolng
nrntiv well cleaned out. states Adams,
iTho English buyers have withdrawn
from tho field, he states, but no Indi
cation Is given as tho cause; whether
It means an over supply or an aban
donment of tho war are only guesses.
Adams and Stewart are buying for
the future market, and do not .make
a specialty of cavgiry horses.
"The pooplo of this section ot the
muntrv ouaht to bo well satisfied,"
said Adams today, "with living here.
After making the trip I have oyer twa
