WILLIAM H. CADLE

     follows the dual occupation of farming and stock raising, his headquarters
being on the Ochoco, nine miles above Prineville. He has a splendid ranch, well
kept and properly improved for the business and is one of the prosperous and
well-to-do men of the country. He was born in Iowa, on May 9, 1858, the son of
James M. and Ellen (Stalcoup) Cadle, natives of Tennessee. They came to Iowa in
early days, later crossed the plains, having then a family of five children, and
settled on a ranch in California. There the father remained until his death in
1901. Our subject was educated in the Golden State and in 1880, came north to
Oregon. He soon selected a location on the Horse Heaven mountain in Crook county
and there remained until 1902. Then he came to his present place, purchased a
farm and engaged in stock raising and general farming. As stated, he has a fine
place and knows well how to handle it in the best manner. He raises cattle and
some horses and has good stock.
     On October 29, 1882, Mr. Cadle married Margaret J. Johnson, who was born in
Missouri and crossed the plains with her parents in 1865. A more extended sketch
of her parents is given in another portion of this work. To Mr. and Mrs. Cadle,
two children have been born, Alpha and Ruby M.  Mr. Cadle is one of the
successful men of central Oregon. He has gained this distinction all through his
business ability and the thrift and thoroughness with which he manages his
affairs. He is not only entitled to the prosperity he has achieved but is worthy
of the esteem and confidence bestowed upon him by a large circle of admiring
friends.
