MILK STANDARD IS R
OREGON OPPOSES PLAN OF
DAIRY COXFEREXCE.
Commercial Bodie Advised That
Gathering Has Xo Power to
Fix Arbitrary Rule.
The published report that the Pure
Food nd Dairy Conference, now in ses
sion at Mackinac Island. Mich., has un
der consideration the adoption of a
standard of 28 per cent solids for con
densed milk and 7.7 per cent butter fat
yesterday brought vigorous protests
from the Portland Commercial Club.
Oregon Development League and Ore
gon State Dairy Association, for the
reason that the adoption of such a
standard in the matter of solids would
prove disastrous to the milk-condensing
industry in Oregon.
While the conference at Mackinac has
no power under its appropriation act
to create standards, the fact that it
represents 60 per cent of the dairy
sections of the country, would seem
likely to give it considerable in
fluence with the Department of Agri
culture in recommending standards.
The standard recommended by the
conference as regards butter fat can be
easily reached by the Faclflo Coast
condensers for the reason that the
milk produced in this section is known
to be very rich; but it does not have
the same solids as milk produced in the
Middle West, because in that section
cows are fed grain and artificial food.
In Oregon the climatic conditions and
method of feeding make it impossible to
reach the proposed standard with re
gard to solids. The men Interested in
the local milk-condensing plants con
tend that the standards should be based
on the percentage of butter fat and
that there should be no requirement in
the matter of percentage of solids.
This would be In entire conformity
with the pure food laws. It is known
that the Oregon condensed milk la
preferred to the product of the Mid
dle West by consumers in that sec
tion and it Is believed the proposed
standard may have been devised to in
jure local manufacturers.
In response to the protests of the
Commercial Club and State Dairy As
sociation the following telegram was
received from Acting Secretary Moore,
of the Department of Agriculture:
"Any standards adopted by commit
tee on food standards at Mackinac are
not binding on the Department of Ag
riculture and the conference has no
power at present under its appropria
tion act to create standards."

REMODEL FAILING BLOCK
CITY OFFICES OF HARRIMAS
. MXES TO BE ENLARGED.
Washington-Street Entrance Will
Be Done Away AVtih and
Other Space Added.
Extensive alterations are to'be made In
the Failing building at the southeast cor
ner of Washington and Third streets. The
Marnman lines' city ticket and freight
offices are to occupy all the Washington
street front with the exception of the
room leased to the Scandinavian bank at
the eastern end of the building.
The alterations Include throwing the
Washington-street entrance to the build
ing into the "office space, the single en
trance to the building hereafter to be from
Third street. The barber shop and en
trance space on Washington street will
enable the city offices to be nearly double
the present space occupied, and the big
room in the rear of the elevator formerly
the city freight office of the companies.
Is again to be utilized by them In connec
tion with the new plan of uniting the two
city departments.
Third and Washington has always been
the location of the city offices of the old
O. R. & N.. and when the consolidation
of that company with the other Harriman
lines In Oregon was effected the city ,
ticket office remained in the same loca
tion. Before the erection of the Failing
building the office was in a frame build
ing opposite, and upon the completion of
the Failing building it was moved to the
corner since occupied. It now becomes
necessary to enlarge the quarters, and the
alterations outlined will be started at
once, it being expected to have the new
rooms ready for occupancy by October 1
The Chicago-Northwestern ticket and
freight office is to move Into the office
now occupied by the olty freight office
of the Harriman lines in tne McKay build
ing when the new rooms on Washington
street are ready. .
MATCH STARTS EXPLOSION
Engineer at Welser So Badly
Scorched Ho Will Iiikely Die.
WEISER, Idaho, Aug. 7. (Special.)
J. H. Beverly, foreman of the P. & I. N.
Hallway roundhouse in this city, was
perhaps fatally burned by an ex
plosion of gasoline today. He was run
ning the gasoline engine at the pump
ing plant when the machinery got out
of order. He lighted a torch and went
into the pit where the machinery is
located, when there was an' explosion
and he ran out with his clothing In
flames. Persons who happened to be
present threw him down and extin
guished the flames. He was immed
iately taken to the hospital. His arms
and body were badly burned, the flesh
in places being llteraly cooked.
Rosenthal's windows are money-savers.
Out on the ranges of Eastern Oregon the round-up is on those ranges famed in poem and story and there yon will
find Smith's buyers picking the tops of the herds and the cream of the flock. With us it's a question of how good
we can bay not how cheap. Come to any of Smith's markets today and every day and you can buy these prize
winning beeves and lambs from Sc to 15c per pound. Tou can buy them from us at these prices because at Smith's
markets all you pay is the wholesale price of meat. We can sell them to you at these prices because we have pledged
ourselves to fight and keep a-fighting the great Chicago Beef Trust, who would grind you as it grinds the people
wherever it gains a foothold. Keep away from the Beef Trust and its markets. Don't eat Eastern meat, cold-storage
meat or meat brought from some other state. Patronize a Smith Market.
