FRUIT WILL BRING
HIGH PRICES
RETURNS TO THE GROWERS THIS
YEAR SHOULD BE AS GREAT
CROP WILL BE SHORT.

Pacific coast fruits of all kinds
should sell this year at better prices
than were obtained last year." said
a prominent Wenatchee fruit man
today. Because of the higher prices,
even although the crop may be much
smaller, the returns to the growers
should equal those of the banner
year of 1907.
Crops Will Be Light.
Crops in the eastern states and in
the middle west are going to be very
light, according to the best reports
that have been received. There will
not be bumper yields ii the Pacific
coast states, either, but the unusual
climatic conditions have not affect
ed the orchards in the west to the de-
gree that they have elsewhere.
I'm addition to this favorable cir
cumstance, there is bound to be a bet
ter demand, because of the increased
purchasing power of the people. This
increased purchasing power has come
with the revival of prosperity
throughout the country
On this subject the fruit man eX-
hibited a clipping from the Pac1flC
Rural Press of San Francisco, which
reads as follows:
Buying Power Greater.
I'm the matter of good prices
fruits are likely to show marked I'M
provement over last year. Figure:

which gave us slow and scant buyers

Decides in Favor of Won Tobel.

Judge Henry, of Livingston, who
was called in to hear the case, last
week rendered decision in favor of
the plaintiff in the suit of R. Won
Tobel against the City of Lewistown.
Mr.. Won Tobel sued to have the city
restrained from extending Third
avenue through portion of his prop
erty on the banks of Spring creek,
1t was shown that the plaintiff has
been in open and notorious posses
sion of the land in dispute for fully
twenty years and Judge Henry ruled
that the city had no right to extend
its street, granting a perpetual in
junction to prevent the municipality
from entering upon the land The
case will probably be appealed.

ty by Deputy Game Warden Sam

Will Watch Game Law Violators.
Deputy Cushman states that he is
going to keep a close watch after
violators Of the game law. The pro
visions of the new statute will be
rigidly enforced and those who are in
doubt as to the law may be enlight>
ened by applying to Deputy Cushman.
Children Not Exempt.
Under the game law as amended by
the last legislature, no one is exempt
from the penalties. Every person
who hunts or fishes, be he young or
old, be it man or woman, must first
secure license.
Any person caught in the vicinity
of a stream with a fishing pole or
found wandering about in the woods
with a gun is liable to be hauled ur
and made to explain. The posses
sion of gfn or rod is prinna facie evi-
dence that the person is going to fish
or hunt.
The Democrat published the game
law in full few weeks ago and any
one who is in doubt as to what that
law contains can have their curiosity
fully satisfied by referring to their
Democrat files.

Reports Brought to the Democrat
Are of Most Encouraging
Nature.
SOWING Spring GRAIN
Two Weeks of Good Weather Great.
ly Needed by Fergus County
Farmers.

G. E. Shoemaker who has in over
seventeen hundred acres OF winter
wheat, visited several of his grain
fields last Sunday and informs tho
Democrat that the outlook for good
crop could not be more favorable at
this time. He found that none of
his wheat has been winter killed and
even some of the grain which was
sown late in October is roofing in
good shape and few days Of warm
weather will bring it along finely.
The Democrat has taken the pains
to interview number of farmers
during the last few days and all re-
ports coincide with that of Mr.. Shoe
maker. With anything like favorable
weather, there will be bumper crop
Of wheat harvested in Fergus county
this fall and the outlook is fine for
good prices Of the staple.
Spring Work Behind.
Ranchers Of this county, like those
of other agricultural sections of the
state and west, are several weeks be-
hind with their spring work owing to
the exceptionally backward season but
continuance of the good weather
which set in Sunday will enable the
greater number of them to get in prac-
tically all they had planned for al
though some of it will be late.
There are now between forty and
fifty steam blowing outfits in the
county and these, together with the
large number of teams which can
be put into the harness, will enable
the ranchers to prepare and SOW
large acreage of spring wheat, oats
and barley.
