Concerning the Absolute Necessity of Dairy Products in the Dietary of the
People, to Maintain a Virile Race.
The first 'calamity that befell
the original first white settlers in
the Willamette valley, was their
inability to get cows. It was not
thought possible to bring them
overland over the terrible "Ore
gon Trail." The Hudson Hay com
pany had a few cows; but, shrewd
business men that they were, they
did not propose to sell them to

SALEM :: OREGON
the new white settlers that might
take away the fur monouoly and
transfer it from the banner of
St. George to the Stars and Stripes
of the newer America. 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 dairy barns of the valley
are much better than they were a

ecdo ago. They aren't too good
even now; there is much left to
be depired for both comfort and
convenience. A well arranged
barn makes for cleanliness and
for mon'5 profit by eliminating
needless labor. We make it a
personal business everywhere, to
encourage better methods of han
dling milk and cream. We get
better p'rod net with every pain in
cleatjUriessj, and it's an 'enlighten
ed selfishness' that prompts us in
our campaign. l nere are many

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. ,
