Shorthorns, Jerseys, Holsteins and
Ayrshires. There were many entries
and premiums awarded in this depart
ment

poned the races until Friday which
proved TO be an ideal day and brought
out a crowd of from three to four

horses, brood mares and colts, sheep
and hogs of all sizes. A. H. Kicker

the whole was all that could be ex
pected considering the bad weather.

in sympathy with the advance in
wheat and general purchases have
been larger. Dealers bought quite free

quickly forced higher and at the full

some flour on hand they will not buy

Apples. Receipts of apples are in
creasing, but there has been good,
fair demand for choice fruit so far at
steady prices. There is fair export

about steady. About l0c is quoted for
buff hides at Ohio and Chicago points

about 10 less. For New England
hides the market is quiet at 70 fiat for
butchers weights.
Wool. There is steady demand for
wool in original clips, the weeks bust
ness being marked by the further
movement of some large lines. The
prices paid for the woods indicate that
the tone of the market is as strong as
ever, stock having been moved at as
high prices as have been paid this
year. Holders of wool are very conf
dent in their ideas as to the future
and are not disposed to grant any
concessions whatever. Offers from
consumers have been turned down,
which. if accepted would have result
ed in a considerably larger business
than that which we have reported.
Such a large portion of the new clip
has already been taken by manufactur-
ers that holders of the woods that re-
main feel very bullish over the situa-
tion.

of street and suburban railway than
has Los Angeles, all electric cars, and
80 complete is the system that almost
any point can be reached in an hour,
even from Pasadena ON the north
east twenty miles to the beach and
seaside resorts twenty miles to the
south. Pasadena is a town of about
$4,000 people. In that little city is
gathered a great wealth, there being
sixty-five multi-millionaires making
it their home. 1t is the home of
the rich who seek a quite little city
having all the advantages of the
California climate. Everything is on
a grand scale at Pasadena. Take,
for instance, Magnolia enu For
the entire length, some ten miles, it
is about $50 feet wide; it has a
vehicle path, a pedestrian path,
electric car track, each separated
from the other by a row of palms
and a row of pepper trees; on the out
side is a neatly trimmed hedge sepa-
rating the avenue from the orange
groves. To go to Los Angeles and
not see the Lucky Baldwin ranch a
few miles out from Ramona would
be like going to Buffalo aud not see
ing the Niagara falls. The Lucky
Baldwin is a ranch containing 5000
acres, formerly one of the old Span
ish land grants, which came into the
hands of Baldwin, an old miner, who
is now a multi millionaire. Baldwin
is a great horse riser. He has about
300 of the best line of horses in the
country and has stables have won
some of the largest purses ever hung
up in the United States. On his
ranch is the finest park in California.
Thousands upon thousands Of
tourists visit the ranch every month
during the season. 1t is necessary
to secure a pass but that is easily
obtained. La this park Is everything
that is to be seen in California except
the mountains an d the seashore. At
Los Angeles the cost of living is
about the same as here in Dakota,
lays Mr.. Bell. A good meal can be
ATTAINED for Is cents, a better meal
for rs cents, a first class board at 81
per day, and all sorts Of "dog' and
style at S. to $75 per day at the
hotels catering to the monied class
Of tourists. Los Angeles IS the dis
tributing point for all Of southern
California and northern Mexico. It's
future growth, therefore, is only
limited by the growth of that section
Of country. The climate is all that
a man could ask Of a warm climate
only three light frosts last winter.
Mr.. Bell thinks it is the only place
for him and be has decided to locate
at Los Angeles. He Will go there
during the summer or early in the
fall and engage in the real estate
business and perhaps take an in
terest in a gold mine, having an
option upon a one-fourtb interest.
