feed and, with supplies of hogs i'll
the entire western country at low
cbb, it would appear good business
tor the dairyman to invite the lOwlv
1orker to aid in the present predica
mcnt.
With thick snow blanket cover
.ng the intcrmountain country and
the Rocky Mountain districts, and
heavy soaking rainfall over the re-
maindcr of the Pacific coast, stock
men are looking forward to good
feed for the spring and summer sea
son. Sheepmen in Utah and Nevada
were facing extremely drv weather
and the snow came just in time to
provide water OF course, hay sup
plies will i;ave to be t;rawn upon in
the colder districts of the northwest
and extremely low temperatures may
-ause some death losses, yet the snow
covering in the long run will prove
of enormous benefit to the cowman
aud the sheepman.
There is a good demand for pure
bred beef bulls of good quality and
breeding. This was evidenced ut the
recent Ogden Live Stock show when
the top Hereford bull sold for s 900
and the entire consignment of bulls
averaged more than 500 per head.
Imperial Valley press., 1930-02-11

Cowlnen have received; good prices
for their young stock, particularly
if of good breeding, and they feel
that they can veil afford to once
more purchase good breeding bulls
at fair prices.
Private reports received by the
. writer from the intermountain coun-
try and from California indicate that
there continues to be a gradual in
crease in hog production in the ter
ritorv which ordinarily ships to the
los Angeles market. Ten cent hogs
on the Los Angeles market. mean
profitable returns to the general run
OF hog feeders and the fact that the
January market has generally aver
aged higher than the late fall market
is regarded as very gratifying
sign. Low prices for butterfat may
also tend to stimulate interest in
neg feeding as a dairy cattle side
line.
AS evidence of the enormous de-
mand for pork products in Southern
California, it is interesting to know
that the 1929 slaughter of hogs in
Los Angeles county totaled 732,33o
by far the largest number ever be
fore slaughtered in that section in
one year, and an increase of nearly
half million over 1920.

'liorities. Not only is the producer
taking Il severe loss on his present
butfcrfat output but it appears that
he creameries are in Z very hazard

The decline in butterfat prices has
been brought about largely by over
production and, it is said, particular

in. herds adjacent to the large con.
suming centers. Surplus milk has
been going into the creameries for
butter manufacture. American dairy

SMUGGLER SHOOTS
 CUSTOMS OFFICER
PatrOlmen Battle Rum Runners
 In Detroit River

Detroit, Mich, April tP-Gor- don Marsden, g, customs border pa trolman, was wounded slightly last night in a battle between rum run ners and federal officers on the De- trot river. A shotgun slug entered Marsden's hand.
 Marsden and his companion. k. C. Rudd, reported that the rum run ners opened fire on the government boat after they were ordered to halt while attempting to dash across the river to the Michigan shore in q speed boat. The officers said they retaliated with 10 shots, but the smugglers escaped to Canada. .
 Marsden said he was on patrol with Rudd in government speed boat when they noticed black speed boat gliding swiftly through the water toward the American side. The government boat sped alongside and Rudd flashed a search light into the rum runners craft.
 At that moment, Marsden said, the smugglers opened fire with sawed off shotguns. One bullet en- tered Marsden's hand. The rum runners escaped to Canada amid q | hail of bullets.
 1 Marsden was treated at receiving | hospital. His wound was not Consid- cred serious. Four bullets from the agents revolyers put holes in the
