State Senator Dan Paul, of Coulee City,

terday on business and registered at the
Northern. He gives a glowing account of
the prosperity enjoved by the farmers and
stock raisers Of the Inland Empire. He
said yesterday:
The Big Bend country Is all right
The farmers are in excellent shape and
while grain does not command as high
price as might be desired. the stock
raisers are getting good money for their
cattle, with the demand more than equal
apparently. to the supply.
Good. marketable beef cattle are SELL
ing from ST.. to s4.O0 per hundred on the
hoof. In Douglas county This Is the
highest price paid In years. A few years
ago We would have been satisfied with
So per hundred. or even less. Seattle af-
fords the best market for our stock Very
little Is being shipped East.
The Indications are favorable for a
light winter In the Inland Empire. We
were scared by a blizzard two weeks ago,
but the weather over there Is as mild and
fine now as Il Is on this side of the moun-
tains. The farmers are well prepared 10
feed their stock through the winter. This
Is In marked contrast with conditions a
few years ago. when many stock raisers
allowed their cattle to rustic on the range
for themselves"
