shows a material decrease from that
of 1916. The output of gold In 1916
valued at $152,223, and the estimat-
ed output In 1917 Is 1867 ounces,
was $l.902,l49. and the estimated
output In 1917 Is $1.466.419, de-
crease of S435.760. The output of
silver In 1916 was 231.342 ounces.
The output of copper in 1916 was
a decrease OF 1l5.645 ounces in
quantity, and OF $5S.064 In value.
3.5Ol,8 1856 pounds. valued at $751;
l4+. and the estimated output in
1917 Is f.50S.ss3 pounds. valued at
$4lO,349. a decrease OF I,993,247
pounds In quantity and OF $470.7S5
IN value. A small quantity Of lead
was produced In 1916. but no pro-
duction of this metal has been re-
ported fer 1877.
There are about a hundred pro-
ductive mines In Oregon. and al
though two-thirds of them are placer
mines. the larger part of the output
OF gold comes from the deep mines.
and. OF course, virtually all the out
put OF the other metals. There were
no important discoveries In any of
the mining districts OF Oregon In
1917, and no great increase IN the
output OF any of the more produc-
tive properties. The entire output
OF ore from all the deep mines com
bined does not exceed 100 900 tons.
Most OF the placer mines are worked
by the hydraulic system, but the
three dredges now in use produce
far more gold than all the other
placer operations combined. The
largest output of gold and other
metals In 1917 came, as usual. from
Baker County, which produces an
nually about 80 per cent OF all the
gold mined In the State. Josephine
County is next In production.

WATER PERMITS ISSUED.

supply for municipalities. with an
estimated cost totaling $294.SS7.O
were issued by State Engineer John
II. Lewis during the last quarter OF
the year 1917.
Eight permits were issued to Har-

following parties:
The Pacific Livestock Co.. OF Burns

from Indian Creek To August Null

seven acres from nelghboring springs.
To Maude l.. Rice TO irrigate 100
acres from the Silvies River. To
Veva Reynvaan OF Burns to irrigate
thirty-five acres from Poison creek.
The total estimate cost of these pro-
Jects is sl.90O.00
Only two permits were issued TO

of hogs especially declined, due to
the fact that the heavy feeders have
been practically exhausted and the
lighter animals are being pushed
onto the market.
AT meeting of food adminlstra-
tors of a number OF states recently
was the unanimous decision. after
surveying the situation carefully,
that a concerted effort must be made
to increase the breeding hogs and
cattle, and each state represented in
the conference was given its per cent
of increase to be attained.
But It is right at this point that
the difficulty ia encountered. The
high prices have not only caused the
immature animals to be sacrificed
but thousands of valuable females
have also been slaughtered which
should have been kept on the farms.
There Is not a particle OF doubt that
the country is alarmingly short of
breeders
There is but one remedy. No
owner of hogs or cattle should sell
or kill females capable of reproduc-
ing their kind. This should be made
an iron-clad rule on the farms and
ranches of this country for some
time to come. Certain II Is that IL
the past. or even the present rate
of consumption OF females Is con
tinued for another twelve months,
the country will face something lit
tie short of a meat famine.
We are a meat-eating race. But
meat must be grown. and the animals
must have dams. The only way to
insure the supply is to conserve the
females. This will have to be done.
even at the risk OF even higher
prices than now prevail.
And as prices now range. this will
will be no sacrifice to the farmers,
but rather a source of greater reve-
nue.. as all will see II they will look
at the matter In the right light.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER

The weeks opening market was
confronted by "a somewhat heavier
offering than we have had for some
weeks past, and all conditions seem
to be about normal. There were
about 5000 hogs and half as many
cattle In the yards for Monday morn
ing's market. II seemed In the open
ing that there was chance for a
break In the hog market and the
cattle market seemed to be about
10 to 25 cents low on the good end.
with 20 to 30 cents low on medium
and thin stuff. There were heavy
demands. however. and large num-
Der of buyers in the yards, 30 that
the days trading developed a strong
er market In both the hog and cattle
sections than was indicated in the
early hours of trading. The after
noon trading seemed to be just about
steady In the cattle section, with
everything moving promptly. and the
last half of the trading In the hog
market was done on IA basis of add
ed strength. One load OF hogs cross
ed the scales at 1876. several loads
at 1850 and 1855, but the bulk OF
the offering brought 1850. while
only few struggling, poorly finished
offerings went down as low as 15.40
and 1850. We are leaving the
quotations as given In the previous
sales. but the market at this writing
seems TO be topping those quota
tions.
In the cattle department, the bulk
OF the good steers went at 10 cents.
They were not equal, however. In
quality to the steers which brought
1925 week ago, and there were
no top steers offered in today's mar
ket. We figure the cattle market
steady to Is cents lower at the close
of Mondays trading. The best cows
in the lot, while probably not equal
to those that brought the best prices
last week, sold for 7.60, but the
bulk OF choice cows sold at 7.50
Feeder stuff was somewhat eased
off in price, with limited demand,
and Gamers and the poorer quality
Of killing stuff suffered on an aver
age for the days trading about 30 to
25 cents. The following quotations
were based on the mornings trade
and are not up to what the after
Moons market would warrant: Cat

Good to Med. Steers, S.60-9.50;
Com. to Good Steers. 7.00-S.40; Can

There were no sheep offered to test

prices: Western Lambs, 13.00-13.50

SCARCITY OF LIVE STOCK

For some time now II has been ap-
parent to those who have given the
matter thought, that the country Is
threatened with an alarming short
age In live stock-especiall meat
producing animals. though horses
and mules are also showing a short
age.
When the war in Europe first be-
gan, 1t was suggested by our agri-
cultural department that our farm
ers and stock raisers devote greater
attention to increasing the number
of meat animals. II was pointed out
shat the large foreign demand
would make great inroads on our
supply. This was the result but not
all the result. The stimulated de-
mand caused prices to soar to alb
normal figures. These prices In turn
caused all who had stock to push
them onto the market at the earliest
moment, with the result that thou
sands OF head of stock went TO the
butchers when it should have been
kept on the farms.
Stock buyers inform us that for
she past years the average weight
