Perhaps one of the largest ship
ments of Oregon sheep ever sent di-
rect to Michigan will be made from
Pendleton in a few days.
Charles c. Gage, of Jonesville.
Mich, J. E. Beach, of Chicago, and
E. K. Carr, of Jonesville. are in the
city looking over the sheep situation.
with a view to shipping trainload of
Umad'la county sheep to the vicinity
Of Jonesville.
Whiie this is an entirely new phase
of sheep shipping from Oregon Mr..
Gage, who is the principal party in
the deal, believes it will be highly
satisfactory. While the range areas
of Michigan are limited yet where the
timber has been cut away. heavy
growths of underbrush and grass have
sprung up, making an excellent sheen
feed and being near to the Chicago
markets, Mr.. Gage believes the sheep
feeding industry in that part of Mich
igan is one of the coming possibilities.
The gentlemen are all delighted
with Oregon and are staying in PEN
dleton for a week to look over the
country thoroughly before buying
sheep. After making their purchases
they Will visit the Lewis and Clark
fair Mr.. Beach is connected with the
standard Livestock Commission COM
pany, Of Chicago, and speaks in the
highest terms of Oregon sheep and
sheepmen, with which he is familiar
through his position in the great stock
yards of Chicago. Mr.. Carr and Mr..
Gage reside in Jonesville, which is 200
miles from Chicago, and are large
property owners and stockmen.
This venture will be watched with
interest by Umatilla county people as
It may open up an entirely new mar
ket for Oregon feeders.

ChauI,n gne.

There are two pecularitieS about
champagne drinking which are capable
of explanation. The one is the rapidity
with which the wine eXhilarates not.
withStanding the small proportion Of
alcohol it contains. This is due to the
carbonic acid gas evolved, which is in
hailed while drinking. for it is the prop
erty of this gas to expedite the action
of anything with which it is associated
1t is estimated that one glass of cham
payne is equal in effect to two glasses
of still wine of the same strength and
is more rapid In action. The other pc
culiarity is the sort of lethargy or
deafness which follows after excessive
champagne drinking. This is analogous
to the stupOr produced by carbonic acid
gas, but ii is assisted and intensified
by the excess of sugar deranging the
stomach. The undigested sugar turns
into acid, and thus it is that too much
champagne is apt to produce dyspep-
