MAR RIED.

In The Dalles, Tuesday, Nov. 10, 1908,
Mr.. Claude Klum, of Heppner, and
Miss Dove BouIe Ware, of Butte, Mont.
Mr.. Klum is a Waitsburg boy and
came to Heppner to accept position as
plumber with Gillian & Bisbee. He
has made many friends by his iovial
and courteous ways. Very few were
aware of his intentions when he left
Monday, but were soon informed of the
fact, as it would not seem right not to
give him the proper reception on his re-
turn. Last evening, on learning of Mr..
and Mrs. Klum's arrival, the BOYS
armed themselves with the proper in
struments and called on the newly
welded couple, who were in readiness
to receive them. After congratulations
the boys wended their way down town,
as there are certain times in life when
1--WE would much rather be lett alone"
The GAZETTE wishes the happy couple
many pleasant years of married life.

CATTLE MARKET DULL.
Buyers are Scarce anu Little Doing
Among Cattlemen.

R. j. Carsner and J. M. Gates of
Spray, were in the city Friday They
came in with shipment of fifty.two
head of beet cattle. The cattle went to
Gresham, where they were purchased
by local butcher.
In speaking of stock conditions in the
Spray country Mr.. Carsner said that the
outlook was not fattering for the cattle
men. Under ordinary conditions the
stockmen have enough hay to feed
through the winter, but the market is
bad Compared with previous years
conditions are not encouraging. BUYERS
are very scarce and it is a hard matter
to turn off anything. There are quite
number of yearlings for sale, but the
best offers have been SIS per head,
while the owners are holding for S16.
For the same cattle owners were offered
$18 this spring, but at that time they
oere holding for 500.
In the Spray country the Gilman 4
French cattle. consisting of 5000 head,
are ranged. They have about 1000 head
of yearlings.

The recent general rains have been
very beneficial to Morrow county. The
moisture will start the grass on the
ranges and stockmen feel encouraged
over the prospects of good grass for fall
range. 1t was just what was needed
among the farmers. Fall gram will
sprout and make good stand and fall
growth, which are necessary conditions
for good crop.
G. w. McBee, the Butter creek stock
man was in the city Saturday. Mr.. Nc
Bee states that there are now about 1000
head of beef cattle being fed on alfalfa
in the Butter creek valley, this being
about 1000 less than last year. The fact
that hay in the stack is selling for $S per
ton is the principal cause for the short
age of beef feeders. Mr.. McBee says
that If the winter should be severe, that
the price of hay would be out of all rea-
son by spring.
