of Oroville, to vaccinate AZ head OF
young cattle with alti-blaek leg vac
cine.-Molson Leader.
Bert Jones, of Glover, spent Satur-
day and Sunday in Oroville, where he
arranged for a market for his cream
for the coming season.-Okanogah
notes in Omak Chronicle.
C. C. Berry, who has been residing
in Oroville this winter, will go to|
Okanogan to take charge of the Ford
garage at that place. He is an ex-
pert car repairer and an experienced
driver.
The man who predicted month age
that the heaviest snow of the winter
would fall on February % evidently
got his guess works mixed. He must
have meant the heaviest rain OF the
winter, with increased indications OF
spring.
]. M. Judd, one of the fret men to
open out in business at LOOMS when
that camp was established, was Wis
itor in town Wednesday, on one of his
rare visits. The old pioneer is look
ing exceedingly we'll, after a year or
two of very poor health.
The citizens of Oroville have their
dander up and are going to have that
road up the Similkameen river wheth-
or or no. They failed to get assist
ance from the permanent highway
fund, but they are setting a force OF
men at work on the job and will pay
the bill themselves. That is the kind
of spirit that wins-Omak Chronicle.
Geo. ]. Parker, one of the well
known old timers of Oroville, and
Mrs. Georgia Lake, who recently in
vested in an East Oroville Orchard
Tract, were united in marriage in this
place this week Friends of the
couple, and especially the old ac-
quaintances of Geo. j., join in ex-
tending congratulations, with best
wishes for their future happiness.
John Woodland, a pioneer of LOOMS,
locating in that camp in the zenith of
| its first boom, spent last Thursday in
Orovile transacting private business.
Mr.. Woodland now owns and lives on
one of the most valuable ranches in
the Sinlahekin valley, and of late
years has devoted his attention to
stock raising. He has prospered in
this north country and today is one
of the best fixed residents and heav-
lest taxpayers in the county.
Tom Daily, who made reputation
in this county by his skill as a box
artist on the diamond, and who has
had some experience in swift company
during the past two years, was in
town over Sunday, on his way to his
home near Keremeos, B. c. Tom has
pitched for and againt the local bal
club in past seasons, and is hard
proposition for batsmen to solve. Nc
doubt he will again be in the game
tits season, and probably in profess
sional uniform.
| StOckmen report that cattle have
come through the winter in most ex-
cellent condition. There has been less
waste in feeding, and cattle have thriv-
ed as they never have before in this
part of the country. The winter has
been ideal for stock. Thte cold, while
at no time severe, has been steady
without the usual periods of thawing
Variable weather in winter is hard on
| stock, as it is on the human family
the animals is due to the long stretch
of unbroken winter.
Peaple here think Okanogan is hap
| PLY booming. A resident of Okanogan
talking with the editor in the lobby
of the Hotel de Grub said that he had
seen more people going in to supper
! than sat down to a meal at any time
in all the hotels and restaurants in
Okanogan combined. And this was
only one of the five or six places in
Oroville where meals are served, and
all of them catering to a good patron
age. Oroville people may feel some
blue, yet they have nothing to COM
plain of when conditions in other
places are considered.
