LIVESTOCK VALUES
REACH MILLIONS

According to recent statistics issued
relative to the livestock industry of
the country, Oregon has PSI, ,435 horses /;
Washington POI .9Sl; Idaho, 20l .465 !;
and California, 1882. The average
value of mature horses is given in Ore
gon at $l0l93; Washington. $ll5.26; /;
Idaho. $lllS4; and in California,
Sl09. 10.
The value of all horses, mules, asses
and burrows in the United States in
1910 was $2.6l2, 600, ,000 as compared
with Sl.099, 600, 900 in 1900; the net
amount of increase teing 81, ,513, 900, 600
aud the rate 1877 per cent. The total
number of animals increased from 81
625. 500 to 2i.0l6, 024. or ll5. per cent.
Had the census Of 1910 been taken as
the same date June i as the census
of 1900. the increase would have been
greater, possibly reaching l3 or Ia per
cent
All horses were valued at 81, 076, 000, =
600 in 1910 and at 1897, 600, 600 in 1900,
showing an increase of Sl,l79, 900, 900,
or 1916 per cent for the decade.
This increase occurred chiefly in the
mature horses class, which were val
ued at 81, 95l, ,808, 600 in 1910 and at
$500, 3lS, 600 in 1900. showing an in
crease of 81, l29, 900, 900, or 1874 per
cent. The number of mature horses
increased from Is, sos, 966, in 1900, to
l7,344,9 ,9l6 in 1910, a gain of 1893, $50,
or 1l.9 per cent. The increase in total
value is therefore largely accounted
for by the higher average value per
head, which was S53.03 in 1900 and
Sll2.53 in 1910, gain of 1922 per
cent.

abled to place upon the tables Of people

THE PARIS FAIR fin: ss


The aggregate value of all mules for
1910 was S522. 900, 900 and $l96, 900, 900
in 1900, showing an increase of $685.
600. 600, or 1862 per cent. The greater
part of this increase is accounted for
by the increase IN value of mature
mules which was reported for 1910 as
1896, l58, 600 in 1900, gain of 1916, 1893, :
600, or l77.8 per cent. The number
of mature mules increased from
2, 753, 486 in 1900 to 3,764, ,342 in 1910,
an increase of 36.7 per cent, while the
average value per head increased from
$64. "a IN 1900 to $l3l.54 in 1910, a gain
of 1882 per cent. 1t may be noted
that in 1900 there were only a little
over one sixth as many mature mules
as mature horses, while in 1910 theie
were more than one fifth as any.
The total value of asses and burros
for 1910 was reported as $13, ,093, 900,
as compared with $5,8ll, 900 for 1900
This increase is largely accounted for
by the rise in average value. The
number showed but a slight increase,
from "a, l65 in 1900 to l0l, 1892 in 1910.
OF all the horses on farms in the
United States, 56.7 per cent are in the
east and west north central divisions.
while only 23.4 per cent of the mules
and asses and burros are in these
states. On the other hand. the south
Atlantic and the east and west south
central divisions together show % per
cent of all horses and 7l.5 per cent of
the mules and asses and burros; in
these divisions the number of mules is
in fact about three fourths as great as
the numter of horses. In the New
England, middle Atlantic, Mountain
and Pacific divisions, as in the two
north central divisions horses are
several times as numerous as mules.
Iowa has the largest total value of
all classes of draft animals combined
on farms, amounting to $l85, 466, 900,
or considerably more than four times

The Western Union Telegraph Co.
announces a change in its delivery
service OF messages in all portions Of
Northwestern cities in which it does
business. The company submitted a
self-laudatory article Of almost a
column, sasking that it be published as

olistic corporations. The country
newspaper, for the community Of

medium, free of charge, for the com
pany never pays for such stores, of

Grading of apples for shipment
through White Salmon and Underwood
has not been up to the standard in
much of the fruit sent out. Even some
slightly sdiseased apples have been
labelled as extra fancy. 1t is poor
pollcy not to make the contents come
up to the label. Mr.. Gibbons, an ex-
pert packer from Hood River, who
worked over lot of fruit on this side,
says that the hardest thing they have
to contend with is the grower, who, in
too many insti noes, will not permit
them to grade close. Every box which
does not come up to its label is knock
to the district, and undoes or makes
foolish a lot of the boosting. Growers
cannot afford to be careless in this

CITY ELECTION
NEXT TUESDAY

With the near approach of the city
election, which will be held next Tues
day, the citizens of the lower city have
slated the following ticket: for coun-
ell, j. l.. Aershner, Edwin Mayes. J
n. Robertson and Carl A. Plath and
for city recorder, Henry l.. Howe.
The one clearly defined issue, il it may
be termed an issue, at the coming
election, is that men be elected, who
will carry out the plans as outlined hy
the old council for the installation of a
municipal water system and street i'm
provement.
The citizens of the city have been
careful in their selections for nomina-
tions and the policies that will be fol-
lowed by the proposed candidates have
met with approval.
A word in commentator of the
present council, the majority of whose
members Will retire after the election,
IS not amiss at this point. Although
handicapped by the intricacies of liti-
CATION that enemies of the city's in
terests have folsted upon them, they
have brought the municipal water
question to a point where with the
competing plant In the possession of

While the appeal of the condemnation

acquisition was a good business move
on the part of the city as will be shown

turns from the water plant for October
ana November amounted TO St.3l2, or

attorneys fees and other incidentals
necessary to carry the case through the
supreme court, would amount monthly
TO SlS6.25. Deduct this amount from
the net monthly income and sum of
S469.75 is left. Furthermore It must
ho remembered that the consumption
OF water for the past two months is a
great deal less than that of the spring
and summer months. A sinking fund
created from tins net income would &c
lar toward taking care of the proposed
bonds for the purchase of the old plant.
In choosing the counclmen for whom
they will cast their votes at the com.
lng election the citizens should there
lore remember that they want to up
hold the policies of the old council and
secure men who will support the coun.

PERMANENT EXHIBIT
OF STATES PRODUCTS

To exploit the resources and aid in
the development of the American
Northwest, the Northwest Develop
ment League will place a permanent
exhibit of the products of the soil,

various states in a display room and
show them TO thousands OF people who
pass through and visit the city of st.
Paul the gateway to the northwest
territory.
This state has been invited to occupy
several square feet of this space with

Commerce has entered into contract
with the league to furnish the display

this exhibit we are sure we will show
more than five thousand on the aver
age and during the tourist season as
