bo held hero about tho middle of
March and that tbo" exact date will
be determined within a short timo.
Local Stock Offered
Last year's salo was a success, but
no local animals wore offorod for sale
as tbo purebred stock campaign was
then in its earliest infancy, and as
nono but registered stock was ac
cepted for sale, only outsldo stock
was auctioned. This year there will
bo a number of excellent bulls and
heifer entered by Klamath county
farmers, among ' ntrymon being
F. T. Nelson, of vito; Frank Mc
Cornack, ot Klamath Falls; Owen
Martin, ot Merrill; and Tamer Bros.,
of Langell's valley. Thero will bo
others, but their names havo not yot
been give " ""nas.
The farm buroau -will exercise
close supervision over the stock of
forod for salo, the fundamental ob
ject ot tbo salo being to keep the
quatlty ot tho stock up to the) re
quired standard, and to bring In new
stock in lien of the stock sent from
hero to outside places.

tion of tho money markot placing a
mantle ot conservatism over the en
tiro county, but Klamath county,
banks have agreed to? take caro ot
responsible customers, and the sale
will not bo undermlnod because of a
lack ot money.
