The law will also prohibit tbe placing or keep ing of the stale brand upoa butter thst bss been in cold storsge for more than 30 days. This will prevent the working off of an antiquated article upon buyers under fals pretenses, i At a meeting held in tbe office of Commissioner Bailey , attended by re presentatives' of all tbe' Portland creameries and by seversl creamery men from op the Valley) tbe subject of an appropriate design was fully dis cussed.,, It was decided that the word Oregon" in large letters, with tbe words "state brand" beneath it, would be the proper thing.
