SO CARS OF LIVESTOCK.
Tuesdays Freight Carried 100000
Worth of Cattle and Hogs to Market.

Yesterdays Tribune in viewing the
reports of the Camas Prairie railroad
states that the prairie country and out
lying country marketed 33 carloads of
livestock on Tuesday of this week.
Tuesday and Friday are the days de.
voted to livestock shipments on the
Camas Prairie road. A number of the
ears were loaded at Grangeville and
Fem and include shipments of cattle
and hogs. The value of the shipments
are estimated at 100000. The ship.
ments all go to coast markes. During
the past few weeks an immense amount
of money has been coming up on the
prairie in return for stock shipped out.
Stock raising has not attained its high
est possibility in this section and it
will not be many years until the ship
ments will be doubled At present the
prairie can boast of being one of the
leading livestock producing sections of
the northwest. Large sales of sheer.
have been made already for fall ship
ment and these will be reported later.
The sales will run into the thousands
in both dollars and the number of head
shipped.

1t is enough to state that Grangeville
will put on the most thrilling and
original show ever staged here or else
where and the reputation of past shows
bears out the promises of the show
forthcoming. A natural scenic situa-
tion with mountain which marks the
boundary to a vast forest, stockraising
and mining section on one side, and one
of the richest agricultural sections in
the world on the other side. Where the
stagecoach is not yet a stranger and a
thing of the past and still makes its
trips in and out as the principal means
of communication with the country tri-
butary hereto.
There will be three days which will
be absolutely as advertised Every
moment of the day and night there will
be something doing. The fun ana
amusement will not be confined to the
Border Days grounds but will continue
on the streets of the city. For three
days the city will be turned over to the
cowboy and cowgirl and the the count
less visitors for time of enjoyment
and pleasure.
The 1915 Border Days show will mark
the perpetuation of the memories of the
pioneers, and the development of the
west. Border Days of the past three
years has never disappointed and al
ways satisfied the visitors. Outside
talent will be here in force not because
they are needed so much-for we have
the people necessary to stage the show
who live here-but to make the eele-
bration the greatest and best. Watch
for announcements.

ELK ON CRAIG MOUNTAIN.
Believed to Have Been in Passage to
Bitter Roots.

w. A. Hill, who is in the city from
his homestead on Craig mountain, re-
ports that three elk were seen at the
Benton meadows early one morning
last week. The elk were seen by
Mack Utz, stockman, and it is be-
lieved they were in passage from the
eastern Washington section to the
Bitter Root mountains. A large mum
ber of elk were released in eastern
Oregon and southeastern Washington
few years ago and last year one
elk made his appearance on Craig
mountain near Forest.
Mr.. Hill reports huckleberries very
scarce on the mountain this season
and that few grouse have made their
appearance on the higher attitudes.
He predicts there will be little bird
shooting ON the mountain this season.
