fees some $26 more or less a month
for the maintenance of a stuto In
spector, and Pendleton representa
tives at the meeting sold that Pen
dleton was solidly behind the Inspec
tion proposal. Under the state plan
the state Inspector would handle this
territory unassisted, without any
municipal inspectors in the field. A
majority of local dairymen favored
the plan, and the association ap
pointed a committee of throo Bert
Orout. A. Herrmann and N. K. West
to confer with similar groups from
Pendleton and Baker In the near
future on the matter.
As to .the four per cent butter fat
standard for milk, both Mlckle and
Harlan spoke In defense of this and
alBO In explanation. Mickle said that
the content of butterfat Is not Im
portant from a health standpoint,
since whole milk contains the fol
lowing lime, milk sugar, coslen.
magnesia, phosphorus, clorlde, cal
cium, sulphur. Iron and butterfat.
Reduction of the content of butter
fat does not affect the benefits of
milk as a healthful food, he said.
Mlckle pointed out,, however, that a.
dairyman may sell milk with more
than four per cent butterfat content
providing lie charges more than the
regular prjco for It. At the same
time. If his milk Is less than four per
cont butterfat, he should charge less.
It was said. f
Harlan irald that' the, dairy, condi
tions 1n Oregon at preaent are the
best af any state In the union, and
bom ho ad;Mlcklo,.urged that dairy
men conform with tho' hew regula
tions In the Interests of nil. Pendle
ton representatives reported having
thoroughly adopted the four per cent
plun, and said It was working nicely
In Umatilla county. 1
Today Mlckle and Harlan are hold
ing a meeting ot Dnker.
