The cattle markets have been over
stocked lately and prices have suffer
ed as they always do when this condi-
ton prevails. Guarantees in some
States and districts also have helped
to place the sellers at the mercy of the
buyers. There is a situation in this
section of country that is very crafty
ing, and that is the fact that our farm
ers have more food on which to winter
live stock than they ever had before.
Some of our shrewdest farmers are
holding as many of their young cattle
as possible and will feed them until
later. or all through the season. The
prices will improve after the fan rush
is over. ... ..:. wis.,. ...-

Douglas Island News: Douglas has g lot of people who are never happy. No matter when you meet them they alwayD have a tale of woe. At times they almost cry. They seldom laugh-life is too serious. Many business men be- gin to look sorrowful when you ask them "How's business7" and they immediately tell you how hard up they are, and how business has gone 10 the demnition bow-wOws; and you SO your way with bad taste in your mouth. Don't do 1t. Laugh and be gay. Douglas people have no leason to be unhappy. If troubl comes, let us be brave. Think about the people in Europe. many of whom are starving, but they are doing it bravely-we might say The soldiers in the mud dy trenches are laughing and sing ing songs, while the bullets whistle over their heads. Yet we cravens, living in this land of plenty, where none ever starve, where the hot, soaring brand of war does not touch, grumble and growl mostly about nothing. Cheer up and be happy.

 The new dances must be open to less criticism, the dancing masters deciaed. This thought governed the'r selections and recOmmenda- tiOas. So the tendency is toward a retr.r to the stately old minuet and a revival of the schOttische
