PLENTY OF STOCK.
Low Prices have Limited Sales
But are Now Improving.


Baker Ball, t he we'll known
stock buyer, has been on the Prai :
rie for some time buying cattle and
hogs and will make a shipment of
nine cars of hogs and two of cattle
next Monday for the Seattle mar
ket. Mr.. Ball finds stock much
more plentiful in this section than
usual, as the low prices that have
prevailed for nearly a year past
have caused many to hold their
stock, but at present cattle are adj.
vancing little and a good many
will be sold during the winter.
Choice beef steers are now worth
three cents pound and with the
feeding season on there will pro-
badly be still further advance
before spring. Hogs are not 80
much in demand, and there seems
to be general indication of lower
prices. This is largely due to the
high price of grain which makes it
more profitable to sell than to feed.
There is great deal of market
able stock in the country and, even
though the price is not what it
should be, it will put large sum
of money in circulation when it
once begins to move.
Mr.. Ball will not make another
shipment until after the holidays
and then the demand will be prin-
cipally for cattle.

Demand for Idaho Fruit.

The Salt Lake Herald in a recent
issue pays tribute to Idaho fruit,
and frankly speaks of the inferior
quality of the product raised in
Utah. Such encomiums should
prove to be great stimulus to
Idaho fruit growers to still further
improve fruit conditions in this
state. The article is as follows:
"Another carload of Idaho ap-
pies arrived yesterday and were
selling at $3.50 Wholesale. They
are free from worms and solid to
the core. The Idaho product has
found a market in all the neighbor-
ing states and is considered the
best that has been brought on the
local market this season. Utah APP
Piles are small and wormy, and the
dealers have been unable to dispose
of them at any price. The crop
has been light this season and very
few are on the market. Pine ap-
pies are gone and the dealers do
not expect another shipment. Bart
lett pears sold at 50 bushel whole
sale yesterday, and they are very
scarce. Most of the pears market
ed here have been shipped from
Idaho and the dealers have been
unable to supply the demand dur
ing the past two or three weeks"

MORE FIRE APPARATUS
A Hook and Ladder Truck is
Now Being Built.

The necessity of better fire fight
ing apparatus was SO apparent at
the last fire that steps were i'm
mediately taken to secure hook
and ladder truck an d within
another week it will be ready for
use. The cost OF getting a regula-
tion truck was too great for the
present finances Of the city, but
D. r. Atherton took the contract
to build one that will answer the
purpose and will have it completed
this week. A. J. Turner is max
ing the ladders and when through
the truck will be equipped with
hooks, ladders, axes, buckets and
all things necessary to make it
complete. There is also talk Of
purchasing the chemical babcocks
which will be of great value where
fires are confined to the interior of
buildings.
Chief Engineer Sasenbury is tax
ing the necessary steps to organize
a hook and ladder company and
enough young men will no doubt
be found to make strong fighting
force. With this addition to the
present fighting force Grapgeville
will have as good a volunteer de-
partment as the average city and
the danger Of disastrous fire will
be greatly lessened.

WORK ON FOUR MILE.
Geo. L. Hedges Will do Devel-
Opment on Two Properties.

Geo. L. Hedges, general mana
ger of the Gold Seal and Missouri
Idaho Mining companies, was in
town several days this week buy
ing supplies for the mines. These
properties are located in the Four
Mile district between the Hump
and Elk city and with the work
already done are making a splendid
showing. The values are found in
a large porphyry dixie through
which are found small veins OF
quartz extremely rich. 1t is al
most identical with the Hogan pro-
perty on which a large cyanide
plant is now being installed and is
undoubtedly an extension OF the
same dyke. In the Missouri-Id
group there are four claims and in
the Gold Seal ten claims.
Mr.. Hedges will prosecute ex-
tensive development work on both
properties this winter and expects
to have them in shape for mill
next spring.
He now has small, one-stamp
prospecting mill on the ground
and has made numerous mill tests
which were entirely satisfactory
through it is believed by many
that the ore can be best worked by
the cyaniding process. The entire
dyke, which is nearly 300 feet wide
carries from so to "a a ton while
the small quartz veins have shown
assay values as high as S4OO.
There number of good proper
ties in this camp on which con-
siderable work has been done and
some sales are reported. Peter
Proulx, it is said, has sold his
interests for $4,000 to eastern
parties who will install machinery
at once.
Pat Leach also has some well
developed claims and is working
steadily. DR.. II. S. Naramore, OF
Sites, is the principal owner in the
Happy Hooligan group in this dis.
trict and has found some very rich
ore. On the whole the camp looks
very promising and another year
will find it one of the busiest dis
tricts in the county.

Out from Roosevelt.

Jake and Erick Jenson reached
here Tuesday from Roosevelt, hav-
ing made the trip by easy stages on
foot. When they left the camp
there was but little snow on the
ground and all the way out the
only snow to amount to anything
was on the high divides when it
was about knee deep. There is
much work being done in Thunder
Mountain and there seems to be
no longer any doubt as to the per-
manency of the camp. The new
Sunnyside mill was about ready to
start when they left and about 100
men will be employed on the pro-
perty during the winter. The
Dewey and other properties are
also working large crews and in
every instance the crews are very
satisfactory. They made a short
stop at Warren and found the old
town in about normal condition.
Most of the people who lost their
property in the fire have rebuilt
and the merchants generally have
good stock Of supplies and are
doing a good business. 1t was
thought at the time Of the fire that
it would be hard to get provisions
in before heavy snow fell, but con-
tinued good weather has made this
easy and there will be no shortage
of supplies this winter.

viii Inspect Survey.

s. H. Dibble and S. S. Spofford
of the department. of government
surveys arrived here last week
from Great Falls, Montana, to in
spect the survey made several
years ago by Mr.. Shannon. There
is reported to be number of cor
rections to be made and sometime
will be required to complete the
work. There is some snow in the
mountains and it is doubtful if the
work can be successfully carried on
at high attitudes this winter. They
were accompanied by Ellis Small
of Orc Fino.

Electricity for Everything.

DIR. Green has just installed a
handsome new Electric Dental En-
gine, the very latest model and
best constructed machine of its
kind. 1t takes the place of the old
fashioned foot treadle machine that
has been the bug-bear of everyone
who has been unfortunate enough
to have tooth filed. The dental
engine is the one that does the
grinding, the old styled machine
was great annoyance to the oper-
ator and a great annoyance to the
operated, but the electric engine
does away with that horrible buz-
zing and rattle that is enough to
give man the nightmare for six
months after visiting the dentist,
and runs with such smo, ,thness and
noisless motion that the patient
hardly realizes that he is having
his teeth ground out at all.
DIR. Green's new Dental Parlors
are certainly sight worth seeing,
there are electric wires, switches,
buttons and machines everywhere
The Doctor shows that he knows
what the best in this line is and
has spared no expense in providing
the very best for his new Office.
Without doubt DIR. Green now
has as fine Dental Parlors as can
be found outside the large cities,
and it would be a credit to any
city, and the doctor has the ability
and training to use his instruments
in the highest professional manner

Owl Put Out Lights.

The electric lights went ont sud
denly Sunday night and as there
was no wind the management was
at a loss to know what had broken
the current although it was evident
that the wires had either been
broken or were crossed. The next
morning Mr.. VanBuren started
out on q tour Of inspection and
several miles out found the wires
crossed and a monster dead owl
lying on the ground beneath. The
huge bird had evidently struck the
wires with sufficient force to bring
them together which put out the
lights and at the same time caus-
ing it's own death by electrocution
as the flesh was badly burned.
