SHORTAGE IN SHEEP
OREGON HAS BUT HALF AS MANY
AS SIX YEARS AGO; WOOL
Is HIGH.

There are just half as many sheen
IL oregon now as there were six years
ago when the fight against scab was
waged by the state and federal au-
thorities. At that time there were
over 100000 sheep in Oregon and
now, according to data obtained by
the livestock sanitary board there are
but 2.120.O00 sheep in this state. In
the state of Washington there are less
than half a million sheep while Idaho
has something over 100000 head.
The reductions in the northwest
bands are due chiefly to a more re-
stricted range. In many cases the
government with the idea Of protect
ing the range, has reduced the num-
Der Of sheep allowed by half. This
has caused many stockmen to reduce
their bands. The mutton market.

II persistency counts for anything
Simon and Mary Deardorff will even
tually cut asunder the bonds that
hold them legally together. For the
third time suit for divorce in which
they are parties was filed yesterday
in the local court. They were mar
ried in this city in April. 1911. on
May "a of the following year. the
husband commenced suit for divorce,
alleging cruel and inhuman treat
ment However. there was no evil
dence to substantiate the charge and
Judge Phelps dismissed the suit. This
provoked Mrs Deardorff, who was
just as eager to be free as was her
husband and in August, 1918, she
filed suit, alleging desertion. This
time the evidence showed that the
man is again the plaintiff and he is
now alleging iesertion. He may be
successful d. W. Bailey is his at
torney.
