CATTLE ON FEED
ARE VERY SCARCE
FEWER AT FEEDING
CENTERS THAN FOR YEARS
Not Sufficient Arrivals at North Port
land to Test Market-Easier Tone
in Swine Division-NominaI Sheen
Offcrings-Sheep Sluggish.
lFrom Tuesdays Journal. -,


According to Wilbur Brock, form
erly a well known Portland newspa-
per man, who has returned from an
extensive trip through the interior, a
smaller amount of cattle Is on feed
around Echo and along Willow creek
from Heppner to the Columbia and
along John Day than during any re-
cent year.
There was scarcely sufficient
amount of stuff offering at North
Portland today to give prices their
daily test. No arrivals at all were
available in the cattle division so far
as stock available for the market
was concerned. The only shipper in
that line was Harry S. Putnam, for
merly buyer for S. & S. here, but
who is now connected with Frye at
Seattle. Mr.. Putnam had four loads
of cattle in from Medford, but they
were merely rested here to comply
with the government regulations re-
garding the number of hours stock
can be carried on a railroad without
food or water.
While there was a very fair show
ing of cattle in the yards yesterday,
supplies are much smaller than dur
ing recent periods for the same day.
This is giving killers a chance to clean
up their former huge surplus and
will in the end be about the best pos
sible thing that could hae happened
to the trade here.
The same sort of condition has ex-
listed here before and it has been
found that the staration process is
about the best regulator of an un-
satisfactory demand and price.

II anything there was IA slightly
easier tone in the hog trade today
The market showed but nominal
change and while stock did not COM
mand the high figure of yesterday,
this was due to lack of quality and
not to demand.
The constant increase in the price
at other centers is causing consider
able agitation here. Seemingly the
trade here is going to put the hog
market exactly on the same basis as
South Omaha, although tn situation
at both centers is different.

Do Flying Fish Fly?
IN the Scientific American.

From the Scientific American.
This much-mooted question is dis
cussed by William Allingham in the
Nautical Magazine. The orthodox
scientific opinion is that the wings"
Of the flying fish merely serve a
parachute to sustain the fish for brief
period in the air. after he has launched
himself out of the water by powerful
screwlike movement of his tail. Ac-
cording to this view, the fish has no
power of directing his flight after he
has left the water. However. Mr.. AL
bingham, who Is a nautical expert at
tached to the British meteorological
office and is in constant intercourse
with seamen. reports many observa-
tions that tend to controvert this
opinion. Certain observers claim that
the wing-fins are in constant rapid
vibration, and seem actually to serve
the purpose Of flight. One vessel master
watched a fish that had attained an al
titude of twenty feet above the water,
and was flying toward the miZZen rig
ging of his ship when, apparently
noticing the obstruction. it changed its
course about sixty degrees, crossing the
vessels stern to regain the water.
Many other similar observations are
mentioned. A series of cinematograph
pictures might solve this question once
and for all.
