To Farmers:
We wish to announce that we have
secured the services of Mr. Joe
Porter to do dairy field work for
the farmers of this locality. Mr.
Porter will call at your place as fast
as possible and explain this plan to
you.
If you are milking 2 cows or 20 we believe we
can show you how to make more money and how
to build up your herd to better production.

Milk Control Act
Results Studied
Withdrawal Ordered Afftct
Douglas County Except
Roseburg and Coast Area.
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. II. De
Loach, agricultural economist In
the agricultural experiment sta
tion at Oregon Stale college.
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.
