Contested List Increased.

The contested list has been increased
solely this week by the Tennessee CON

the administration, and the Oliver

IDAHO LAMBS SELL WELL.
Butterfield Received 500 Per 100 in
Chicago.

A recent issue of Clay, Robinson &
Company's Livestock Report contains
the following on the Butterfield lamb
shipment from Weiser, Idaho:
A. G. Butterfield. member Of the
extensive Idaho sheep firm OF the
Butterfield Livestock company, with
headquarters at Weiser, was here this
week with a trainload Of sheep and
lambs, which we sold for him, getting
81 for the lambs and 81 for the weth-
ers, prices that were highly pleasing
to him.
This was the. earliest by a month
that / have ever had lambs on the
Chicago market" remarked Mr.. But
terfield. This was rendered possible
by the excellent weather conditions
and fine range all last winter and
spring There will be scattering ship
ments of lambs from Idaho right
along. but the movement will not be
on in earnest until after the first OF
August.
Idaho has about the usual crop Of
lambs to market this season. They
are in unusually good condition, and,
barring poor railroad service, an ex-
ceptionally big number will come to
market in fine shape for slaughter.
Thus fewer feeders will be available
than in late years. Most of the Idaho
wool has been disposed Of at 10 to II
cents per pound, being 3 to cents |
lower than last year.
THE lamb crop in both Wyoming |
and Montana is short this year, the |
ambing in most ports, according to
ate Information, being 80 to so per
cent, against so to 80 per cent for
formal average.
while prospects are not near as
promising as one year ago, the bona
ide flockmaster OF the west is by no
means discouraged over the future.
Ind why should he be, when we are
so per cent or more wool
han we consume? This depression in
rade is only temporary. At least
hat is the prevailing opinion among
he men who make the production Of
heep and wool their chief business.
" course, there will be liquidation by
he amateurs and spectators. They
gill probably get out as fast as they
ot in last year."

Great Wheat Yield.

VIII Be a Normal Yield in the Adams
Country.

Adams, July 22.-Threshing is go
Ing on in all directions from here this
week, and reports Of some 40-bushel
Yields are being received, while most
Of the grain is running 80 bushels to
the acre. Tests which have been
made in the past few days have a
weight Of from 55 to so pounds per
bushel. The weather is very warm,
and the threshers say they never
worked in hotter harvest season
than this. There has been no suffer-
ing as yet. The farmers seem to be
generally pleased with the results Of
the crops, especially since 1t is known
that wheat will be fairly good price
this season and better prices are sure
to prevail than last year.
Some wheat is being hauled to the
warehouses. No sales have been re-
ported as yet, however.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. NJ. Baker have re-
turned to their home in Los Angeles,
after visiting here for some weeks.
Many of the people in and about
Adams have gone to the mountains
or to the coast for an outing during
the warm weather. The past few days
have been extremely warm.

The city persists In using 1t and

into a six inch, which has its own

The board members have asked
the city to discontinue the practie
but seemingly the warnings have
been futile, and the members are

that the city shall construct its

hopes of securing more valuable in

ner was first cousin TO him ana
vent by the name of William Ort-
man. He said that he was simply
hostler for his cousin and that he

of stealing. II simply DIR owe the

exclaimed today.

which the young country youths
gave them last week he declared,

that his cousin was not with him

The prisoner claims that It was

and that he had been with his
cousin only a few days. Ortman Is
a married man aIyed about S5 years
and has pleasant home in Sells
Vile. 1t is certain from the evid-

been captured. In looking up the
record OF William Ortman, the po-
lice find that he is an ex-convlct

forth to effect his capture.
