The latest figures on Btate pro
duction put Washington far in
the loud of all others as the ban
ner dairy production county in
Oregon. The estimate is that
the two condensers pay out over
a million dollars per year for
milk and haulinir. together with
the labor Involved, while the
shipments to Portland amount to
perhaps half as much, when one
considers the innumerable dairies
in the east end of the county
furnishing Portland's milk and
creum supply.
Nowhere in the state are there
universally so many fine dairy
herds, and the registered stock
is rapidly Raining in numbers.
There are many fine herds of
Holsteins and Jerseys, and for
individual producers the district
has other counties discounted.
While Tillamook, in proportion
to population, has a big income
on her cheese manufacture,
Washington leads her In pro-
