Ilesearcb work on the onerallon of the present milk control law In the atute of Oregon bus been car ried on in nearly every county of the state with resultant adjust ment of past uniform regulations lo conform more nearly lo local requirt nients. say Dr. D.

The work is being curried on un der a cooperative arrangement with the milk control board and un der provisions of the nilik , control law which provide for such re search work tp be curried 'on by the experiment station.. The procedure In the past year has been to have investigators go into each county, or larger areas where possible, and study the local conditions In milk control. Facts developed are recorded In a formal rcpurt to the milk control board, which then calls a public hearing in the county. Reports based on thnpo in vest lga( ions have been ni!de to the board for 2fi counties. The board has In turn held hear ings In 2u counties, as of April 1. Now orders based on (ho findings of Iho investigation ami facts brought out at the hearings have been Is.suod in 21 counties. These, orders included complete withdrawal by the board froniH eastern Oregon. It was considered thai the continued operation of the colli rol law in those counties was not justified, as none hail cities of any considerable size. Other lac tors brought about withdrawal fiom Linn county. In addlllon. the board has with drawn from all parts of Crook coun ty except Prineville; Douglas. coun ty, except lioseburg and Hie coast area, and Wasco county except The Dalles. In other counties where new orders have been is sued, effort has been made to have Hie regulations of the board con form more nearly to local custom t ban lias been the case previously. In some Instances Ihn minimum price lor sale to consumers has been lowered and provision made for quantity discounts which had not prevlousl been allowed. In other places tho permitted butter lat content for given price has been adjusted to locrfl custom. Around the County Days Creek DAYS CltF.KK. April 13.
