It was thought that the only two routes into the Oregon country were the sea route, which was a British monopoly; or. the overland route, which was not possible for cattle. With the great fur company domi nating the whole Columbia river, for either sea or overland travel, the shrewd managers figured that they could control the new set tlers as dad controls the line3 when he lets little Johnny "drive" the spirited team. They figured, rightly, that the settlers could never live without cows; so they planned to prevent the growth of herds that would make the Willamette; valley set tlers measurably independent. The settlers' discovery of a route through the supposed Impassable "forests and mountains to Califor nia, where they could buy tows, and their bringing in of a great herd, approximately 700, follow ing the refusal of the Hudson Bay authorities to sell the cattle that the settlers needed, meant the in dependence of the newcomers and the final holding of the Oregon country for the United States. It was the dairy cow that did it. and not tne warrior or the war horse. They were pretty punk cows in those early day, at that long- horned, pop-eyed, shed-tniled small-milking range brutes that would hardly be recognized as of the same genus as the marvellous Jerseys, Holsteins and Guernseys that are the household accompani ments of the Oregon homes of to day. Iiut they were hardy, and they fed a hardy race that was not itself as soft-handed as the pres ent generation. Iloth breeds cows and men have improved from the standpoint of culture if not of virility; but neither could make it alone they have come up together, as man and his herds have grown up together since the days of Abel, the first herdsman World's (ircutrst Cows There are more world's record Jersey cows in the Willamette valley than anywhere else in the world. There are more breeders here than in any other section of equal area, or peihaps more fair ly of eaual total nooulation There is somethingiu the air, the water, the so:l. that builds up wonderful herds. It is claimed from one of the great national fi nancial credit companies Dun' Agency that tha dairy section southwest from Salem is the rich est farm and stock district in the l nited States. There are more high class breeders, with more higher priced stock, than in &ny other f.pot in the whole nation is noticeable that this exceptional wealth, prominence and individ ual cow excellence runs almost to the dairy breeds of cows. lairy Cow' oorf Property The dairV cow is good proper ty in the Willamette valley. It has been faid, over and over, that there is a great shortage of dairy cows; men have seen the familiar fawn-colored Jerseys sent: to "Ob block for beef, and have assumed that necessarily the dairy herds' ;ire being decimated. Hut the av erage efficiency ot the herds has been largely increased by ttiej elimination of the "boarder"! cows and the oif-types and the grades, and the retention of a bet-j ter c!a?s of cows that really pay their way. TV farmer with a j really good her I of cows nowa days is almost the only farmer i except the poaltryman who is; haVing money every month to car-j ry him through. j Ik'tter liairying Methods "It is getting easier to keep up the standard of cleanliness and quality in the products we buy," is the test'mony of Manager Har pole of the Capital City Co-operative Creamery. "There is a steady gain in the care of cows, in their feeding, in their breeding that is shown in their increased pro duction. It was not so very lon ago that the aveiage cow didn't pay for her keep. The Tlabeock tester has spotted these loafers, all over America; nowhere mora effectively than here in the valley. The beefy cows have gone, or are going; the genuine dairy cows are taking their place, and the future looks bright indeed for the dairy man.

The Yitamines or life "Some of the farmers of Ore gon have failed to cooperate with the organized dairymen, to make l legal and business distinction between true and false butters betwesn the products of real cream and those rrom miscellane ous animal and vegetable fats. V newspaper story published not so very long ago, quoted a dairy Holger 109744, formerly owned by McArthurand Stauff, 10 miles west of Salem, but now owned in Linn county. McArthur and Stauff have, been making most creditable records with the daughters of this great bull. repropentative as saying that 'the butter substitutes contain no food values.' That was not quite true, and the statement was challenged by a n?ar-butter representative in a wonderfully able speech before a big business meeting in Port land. The near-butter man had the crowd almost won for keeps when a dairyman propounded this question: " 'Will you pay that the substi tute butter carries any of the vita mines that modern science says are necessary for life?' "The almost-butter man was dumfounded. He could only gasp and say, 'I do not know that it do3s.' " That's all 1 wanted to know.' and the dairyman .-at down. In ten feconds he had utterly molished the carefully built gument of the highest priced stitute-butter publicist in whol? west. "The bitter does contain vitamines ot life. One may be able to tell exactly what they are but neither can one tell what is eleclricity, or gravity, or even life itself, a thing that can not be analyze I except by its ef- de-ar-sub-the tlvj not fects. But the vitamines are life, and the inert 1-its ari not life and no matter though they seem to taste the fame, they are like a marble statue or a painted pic ture or a phonorraphed voic they do NOT live. More Knowledge Xwlcd 'Our farm people ought to know this difference better than th?y do. They ought to help o impress on the buying public the fact that only real butter con tains these vital elements neces sary for health. "The buying public ought to get the idea that there is the sanit fliffpTpnrp bet ween the two nrod- ucts. that there is between peanut-H shell breakfast food and genuine grain products, though they might look and could bo made to taste almost the same; or between mar ble dust and quinine that migh look alike. Dairying is the natur al business of Oregon; it needs to have the complete cooperation of every Oregonian to make it the a;set it should be." City and Country Cooxration An interesting case of cooper ation between city and country was recently reported from What com county, Washington. The bankers and city merchants found their farmer customers were go ing "in the hole" financially, with no apparent way out. They mado it their own business to find a 1 way out-a rather unusual but strictly logical way it is. Indeed! They agreed to stop the sale of.' substitute milk and butter prod, ucts all cocoa or oleo or othet fat substitutes for butter, all ren ovated and vegetable-oiled skim milk with cheap fats to replace the cream that it' taken .out for butter making. "Thla will gfVe to our farmers an unhamapered market lor all thtir product," said the city business men; "wo owe it to them to give them a chance " and they are doing It, just that way. The result Is said . to have been an almost Instant revival of farm prosperity, or at least of farm confidence which is mental and moral prosperity; the limitation of money sent outside to great mall order department houses; and an era of better pros pect, in every line of community endeavor. , A Sucressnu Creamery The Capital City Co-operative Creamery is one ot the most no- ( Continued on page 3) W Ax Out After Two Millions W ar now paying over tUr- quarter of a mill too dotlart a yr to th dairymen of this itioD for milk. .
