This total of cost, based on the re-

Pressed Brick To Be Used
In Government Building.

Considerable surprise was ex.
pressed when it became known
here that the plans and specifica.
tions for the new post Office
building did not call for pressed
brick and a move was put on
foot and a petition sent to Wash
ington asking that the common
brick already delivered here be
used fot inside work and that
pressed brick be used.
We are glad to say that the
complaint was considered az
reasonable and just by the gov
eminent and the change
decided on, by the contractors.
We have not heard whether
cream, red, chocolate or French
gray. will be used but can say
that every one is delighted that
the change has been decided on.

and. while many of. them were
not in need of loans at this time,
all were in faVQr of starting the
association and getting in line for
government loans at low interest
and long payment whenever they
should be needed.

Big Cougar ON Mountain

Some hunter with a couple Of
good dogs could make good
weeks wages near this place by
rounding up and slaughtering
the big cougar that has been
making its home for the past
couple of years on Craig noun
tain west of the Mel Pierce ranch.
The cougar is no myth for the
animal has been seen repeatedly
and its tracks are often encoun-
tered in that vicinity, during the
winter season. 1t apparently
has established permanent
home in the woods there and
lives off the farmers of that vi
cinity picking up pig or killing
a calf as occasion demands. 1t
has been known that a cougar
was visiting that part of the
mountain for some time past but
many thought the animal came
there only occasionally during it's
ramblings but the record of the
present winter has established
beyond a doubt that the big cat
has steady abode there. Last
fall the cougar was seen near a
cook house when a thresher was
operating in that section and dur
ing the summer it was seen sew
eral times but always when the
person was unarmed. Men work
ing in the woods there have been
tracked by the cougar and dur
ing the night it has stolen fresh
meat from the house where they
were sleeping. The deep snow
has made the cougar more bold
than usual and caused it to range
wider than usual and, while sew
eral have tried to locate it with
guns, none have succeeded thus
far. The big cat is a decided
menace to the residents Of that
locality and should be killed be-
fore it carries off some child or
attacks a grown person.

New Record For Hogs

A new record price was paid
for hogs yesterday when John
Kennedy, a farmer of the North
Tom Beall creek, received $13.85
per hundred for two carloads of
cnrn-fattened hogs. Several
buyers were bidders for the Ken
nedy hogs and the top price was
paid by a buyer for a coast pack
ing house.
The price of prime steers yes
terday reached $1O.50 per hun
dred and buyers predict all live
stock prices will experience a
further advance. 1t is stated the
present prices are already affect
ing the meat trade, there being a
noticeable curtailment in the or
ders. 1t is explained that a prime
steer will not dress more than 55
per cent of the live weight,
which means the actual cost of
beef is approximately 20 cents
per pound before it leaves the
slaughter house. Add to this the
expense of butchering. deliver
ing and the reasonable retail
profit and the dealer is compelled
to charge from 35 to 40 cents pei
pound for the best cuts, while
the less desirable cuts must be
marketed at a price less than the
actual cost laid on the block. :

The livestock situation is be-
coming more serious every day
and it is impossible to say just
where the prices are liable to stop
judging from the way the mar
ket has been going skyward dur
ing the past few weeks. Fat
hogs sold on the local market this
week for 13 cents pound and a
buyer for Stanton & Co. of Spo-
kane, stated while in the city
Monday that the packing COM
panies were combing the country
for hogs and expect the price to
reach Is cents within a few
weeks. At present only hogs
enough for daily trade are being
secured and no packing is being
done.
The cattle market is equally
serious and, while we are located
in the heart Of one of the best
stock sections of the west, it is
impossible at present to buy fat
cattle of any kind. One bunch
of fat steers that has been fed at
the Eckert farm north of town
during the winter is the only sup
nlv known and the owner has re.

Livestock Situation
Becoming Serious

fused an offer of 9 cents for them.
Simon Bros, who have been sup
plying many of the smaller mark
cts on the two prairies with
dressed. meat for the past several
years, have been forced to turn
down all orders because of ina
bility to supply the demand and
are holding their cattle to supply
the home trade until new stock
can be secured from the range
some two or three months hence.
The cattle situation may be ex-
pected to ease up somewhat after
the range cattle come onto mark
ct in the summer but the dump
ing of everything in the hog line
onto the market last year in order
to save feeding high priced grain
has caused a serious shortage in
pork that will not be overcome
for a couple of years at least,
Yes, "pigs are pigs" and steers
are steers, and the man who was
farsighted enough to hold onto
his livestock last year is the one
who is reaping the benefits ir
the present market.
