fectly satisfied with the deal.
Itsis strange that the farmers of
Eastern Oregon cannot raise enough
chickens to supply the hone markets,
and thus make it unnecessary to ship
them all the way from Kansas to The |
Dalles. Saturday, James Carnaby and
Sinnott s. Fish received shipment
which were as fine as we have ever |
seen, weighing dressed over three
pounds each which would sell for about |
b6 per dozen. With such varieties of |
lowl at Is cents per pound farmers
could make a handsome profit right |
here in Oregon and make it unneces-
,aey for the consumers to send to Kan |
,as for their chickens.
