Three Factories Are Now at
Work Making Condensed
Milk.
Great strides are being msda In
dairying in thla atate. according to J.
W. Bailey of tha atate dairy and food
commission, who If now preparing bla
biennial report .to be presented to tha
next session of tha stats leglslasture.
Dairying Is coming to bo one of the
leading Industries of eastern Oregon
as wall as In the counties of tbs csast.
During the past two years, accord
ing to the report, the production of but
ter has increased 20 per cent and cheese
10 per cent throughout the state. Tha
condensed milk Industry has also mads
Its sppaarance during this time, and
now three factories are In active oper
ation. They are located at Hlllaboro,
Forest Qrove and North Bend.
For all dairy products. Mr. Bailey
atatea tha dairymen have been receiv
ing good, prices, and although the pro
duction haa been lnereaaed all along
the line, prices have not decreased. But
ter fat Is bringing an unusually high
pries. In this city tha average price
In 1903 was 27Vi cents a pouna ana mis
will be lnereaaed this season.
Heretofore the dairyman thought of
conducting his business on a large
scale only during the summer, hut be
now finds that It Is equally profitable
during the Winter. This h' been
brought about, to a. great extent,
through - the introduction of forage
p
lanta. such as , alfalfa, clover ana
vetches, with which the cattle are fed
during the fall and winter seasons.
These forage plants' are being grown
very extensively at the present time in
parts of eastern and southern Oregon.
Experiments are also being conducted
by the Agricultural college and the
farmers are finding what planta yield
the beat results. So fsr alfalfa and
the vetches are rated as the most satis
factory.
In his report, Mr. Bailey is unstmtea
In his praise for the work being ac
complished through the Oregon Agri
cultural college. Their experimental
work is meeting witn wonaerrui r. -
suits and the farmers are being shown
what Is best for them in sll Unas of
dairying and othar agricultural pur
suits. During the past two yeers the com
missioner haa mads 20,0 chemical anal
yses of milk, butter, cheese, vinegar,
catsup and other food. He bas found
many violations of tha pure food laws
and 24 arrests have been made. Most
of these Infringements of the law have
been made with watered milk, ahort rate
butter and adulterated vinegar. In ev
ery prosecution a conviction hss been
aeured and heavy fines Imposed.
All these fines go toward the support
of the commission, much of which has
been expended In fitting the laboratory
for experimental work It Is now -quite
well equipped, but there are atlll some
needed appllancea to be secured, and he
will ask the stats legislature for a
small appropriation to do thla.
He says tha dalrlea about Portland
were never In better condition than
they are today. Cleanliness Is ons of
his Injunctions to dairymen, which Is
being observed, snd during the paat few
months there have been but very lew
casea of watered milk.
While there has been tuberculosis
among the herds of thla section of the
country for some time, be Is of the
opinion that a law should be paased
compelling the Inspection of every herd
of dairy eattia at least one a year.
After the Inspection. If everything Is
satisfactory, the Inspector will thei.
issue a certificate to tue dairyman. This
certificate will entitle the holder to aell
milk and cream and other dairy prod
ucts. MODEL DAIRY PLANT
FOR FAIR GROUNDS
Charles E. Hill of San Franclsoo and
J. K Eldrldge. local manager of the
De Laval Dairy Supply company, have
propoaed to the , management of the

plant be established on the grounds.
The matter Is under consideration.
