HOGS ARE IN DEMAND !.
AND PRICES ARE HIGH

John w. Keen and Charles Wilks
have disposed of dressed hogs at high
prices this week. Mr.. Keen sold to
Pendleton butchers at and ~ cents
per pound. Mr.. Wilks sold to Walla
Walla parties at price, SO it is
claimed, better than cents.
OF all the farm products pork is
about the best paying to have now
and the price is higher now than it
has been for years, says the Walla
Walla Bulletin. The local market
quotations are better here than they
are at Portland, Seattle or any of
the coast cities.
A member of the Walla Walla Meat
Gold Storage Co., stated that the price
on hogs had gone up half cent and
are worth 616 cents pound, with the
local supply practically exhaus
Seven carloads of hogs have been
shipped into Walla Walla by this
company since the first of the year and
more will be needed before summer.
Besides this company there are sew
eral Others who depend on the eastern
market for their supply.
They receive regular shipments. AS
much of the pork as it is possible to
obtain here in the live state is packed
and the rest retailed over the counter.
Some is put in storage for emergencies
Hogs have. been at good price all
fall and winter. but the price being
offered for them now is better than at
any time for several years, and will
serve to encourage farmers in raising
them.

A LINE TO MILTON
ELECTRIC ROAD THROUGH THE
GREAT FRUIT BELT.
Reliable Report That Construction
Will Likely Begin Within the
Next Six Weeks.

The Walla Walla Bulletin says it is
reported upon the most reliable auth
ority that the construction of the
electric line between that city and
Milton which will be built by the
Walla Walla Valley Traction compa-
ny, will begin within the next six
weeks.
Isaac w. Anderson, president of the
company, who returned from Phila-
delphia recently, refused to make a
public statement concerning the plans
OF the road before he left, but the
source of information is so reliable
that business men place full confid-
ence in the report.
President Anderson intimated that
road to oae of the nearby towns
would be built this summer, but re-
fuses to divulge its name. stating that
the Information would be given to the
public in few days.
Mr. Anderson is also the general
manager of the Northwestern Gas Il
Electric company, and stated that the
wires of the company in Walla Walla
were to be restruug and the plant
improved greatly. New lead wires
from the central station will be put
up and detailed improvements of the
company's system will be made.
Walla Walla business men are more
than pleased with the news of the
electric line to Milton, and say that it
will be one of the best enterprises that
has been started for the upbuilding of
the city. The business men say that
the road will bring hundreds of people
to the city every day who will spend
their money for Walla Walla articles.
Not only will it increase general bus
mess they say, but 10y reason of tho
fact that the trade will go to that city
real estate will advance in value and
a general era of prosperity will spread
over the city,
