STOCK WINTERED WELL.
Loss to Cattlemen One Per Cent Above
Normal Because of Feed Shortage.

G. j. Hall, well known stockman of
the upper Snake river, was an arrival
III the city yesterday and reported
stock have wintered well in his see
ton. Mr.. Hall is engaged in raising
sheep on an extensive scale while Mrs.
Hall has a good bunch of cattle from
which she receives neat sum each
year. -.e Hall ranch was well pro
vided with feed which the severe
weather set in and both the cattle and
sheep came through in fine condition
but Mr.. Hall stated feed shortage
was experienced on some of the upper
river ranches.
"Sheep are now doing well on the
range" said Mr.. Hall yesterday, "and
will be in fine condition when the
lambing season begins in April The
fact is we were only compelled to feed
the range sheep for fifteen days but
the feeding of cattle continues on all
ranches.
'There has been some loss to cat
tlemen because of shortage of feed
and some loss from rolling. 1t is es-
timated, however that the loss will
not exceed six per cent while the av.
erage loss to cattle is estimated at five
per cent. ms would mean the loss this
year will be about one per cent above
normal to the cattlemen.o Wednes

REDEMPTION OF CERTIFICATES.
Judge Dunn Holds Must be by Suit and
Payment of $25 Attorney Fees.

The following from the Occur Il ;
Alene Journal will be of interest to all
property owners, and especially to
those whose taxes are delinquent be-
yond the two-year period for redemp-
ton.
In q decision rendered Feb. 10 by
Judge h. n. Dunn in the district court
it was held that the certificates of saie
issued in 1914 for sale of property for
delinquent taxes in 1913 cannot be re-
deemed by the former owners of the
! property without instituting suit and
paying the necessary $25 attorney 5 fee
to the county attorney. The fee goes
to the general fund of the county The
decision stated that the county, as
holder of the delinquency certificate,
is entitled to the attorneys fee with
out having instituted suit for the fore
closure of the tax lien on the certifi-
Gates.
| 1t was held in the case in question
which was tried merely as test case
that the defendant Minnie Thompson,
of Rathdrum, can not redeem the prop
perty from sale without paying attor-
ney's fee also that the defendant can
not redeem at all unless a suit for fore
closure is instituted
The two year period for redemption
on the certificates in question expired
January 18th of this year and the de-
cision holds that the owner o. the prop
erty cannot redeem in thirty days priod
| following the date on which the two
years period expired.
The decision settles a question which
has caused an endless amount of trou-
BILE to the authorities. County Attor-
ney Wernette represented the state
and G. l.. Hoffman the defendant The
name of County Auditor Dandy was
given as plaintiff.
| The Press of Feb. 10, SAYS:
Following stipulation of facts pre-
sented yesterday by County Attorney
Wernette and Attorney G. l.. Hoffman,
the latter representing Minnie Thomp-
son of kathdrum and other par4ie-.
Judge II. N. Dunn this afternoon hand
ed down a decision to the effect that
in dedeeming 1913 tax certificates in
the 30-day period which expires Feb
! ruary ID, on which dae suits will be
filed, the holders must pay in addi-
ton the $25 attorney fee to the county.
This ruling sustained the contention of
attorney Wernette for the county. 1t
is probable that an appeal will be TAX
en- by the adverse party.

HOGS GOING HIGHER.
Market Seems to be Steadily on the
Raise-$7.50 Top Price SO Far

The top price reported this week for
hogs on the prairie was $3.50. This
was paid for classy stuff. The supply
however does not seem equal to the de-
mand and the packers are at last fac
ing a shortage which will be aggravat-
ed to some extent by those hog raisers
who became discouraged at the loosing
game of feeding hogs high priced grain
under the comparatively low prices
that maintained and some even dis
posed Of their breeding stock. $7.65
was the top paid at outside points this
week being the marked price in the
Lewiston country. The report is quite
general from every point in the North
west that fat hogs are very scarce.
Many farmers have just wintered their
hogs through with no intention of put
ting them on the market early Re
emily the prediction was made that
hogs would reach nine cents before the
first of May and every indication
points in that direction of the fulfill
ment of the prophecy.
