ABOUT B.192,000 A YEAR. ESTIMATED pounds to the gallon. Or about 2000 gallons of milk a day. And some 2500 cows are required to produce this domestic supply for the city of Salem alone. There are probably abont 1500 cows working every day to keep the two Salem creameries and the ice cream factories going, here in Salem. Say- 4000 cows working for Salem people and Salem fac tories. To say nothing of the 100,000 or more people in what is termed the Salem district, In Marion and Polk counties, and parts of Yam hill, Linn, Benton and Clacka mai counties. How many cows there are in the Salem district, as above defin ed, the reporter could not yester day find any one to .estimate but there must be a number of times 4000 cows And, whatever . the number, there should be ten cows in this district for every one maintained here now; for the good of the land and everything connected with the land; for tne gooa of the men on the land, and for the good of Salem and all the surrounding cities and towns.

' ' ' 't Fhio Factories Xow Salem has some fine factories now. The Marion ' Creamery & Produce Co. is paying well up to wards a million dollars a year to the dairymen of the Salem section for milk. This company, headed by F. G. Deckebach, makes , a splendid quality ot butter, the "Marion Butter"; and large quan. titles of milk are condensed and Bent to the ice cream factories here and in Portland. This is a progressive, growing concern, equipped for using milk in a num ber of manufactured forms, in cluding the making of cheese. The Capital " City Cooperative creamery, making ''Buttercup Butter," is an association of pro gressive dairymen, using the but terfat from their own dairies, and buying considerable quantities from other dairymen. This co operative creamery is successful and well managed. The Buttercup Ice Cream com pany, of which P. M. Gregory Is manager, has one of the best equipped plants In Oregon, or any where else. The machinery and appliances are strictly modern, and the business of this ice cream factory extends over Beveral coun ties and parts of counties over the whole Salem district. ' SHALL LIU TOTS HAVE ILK? This Question Is in the Hands of a Committee Working Upon the Idea Whether milk is to be served to the first three grades of the Lincoln schoo: was discussed at length Tuesday evening at the first meeting of the year of the McKinley-Lincoln Parent Teacher association. The sentiment of the meeting was in favor of such ac tion. The teachers reported that they got better work tYom the pu pils during the hours 'from ten to twelve when milk was served at recess 'time. Many children learned to drink milk at school when they would not touch It at 301-5 Oregon Bldg. Halem, Oregon A call today may save needless pain and suffer ing in the future. F. W. Pettyjohn Co.

D. Mickle. (In answering the Request of the editor for -an article for thla number of The Statesman, J. D. Mickle, secretary of the Oregon Dairy Council. 1035 Chamber of Commerce building, Portland, Bays in a private note: "I have often wondered why some large manufacturing Institution in the line of dairy products has not located in Salem. As I have tried to outline in this short article, I have always regarded that point as the hub of the dairy Industry, so to rpeak." Following is the article, for which Mr. Mickle says he had vejry little time, being in the midst of a great rush:) The Dairy Center of tne Willam ette Valley East, west, north or south of Salem, this part of the: Willam ette Valley Is particularly adapt ed to dairying. The truth of this statement is emphasized by the number of creameries located in Marion and Polk counties and amount of dairy products pro duced therein. The rich lands lying along the Willamette river have, . in the past, contributed toward heavy crops of wheat, oats and hops. The hop crop is uncertain as to its future; but wheat and oats will always remain as staples. During the war the cow census was lowered, wliile wheat production Increased; however, the number of cows in Marion and Polk coounties has materially in creased. In the past two years. Two and a Quarter Million Latest statistics show that for the last fiscal year the Salem diftrict produced approximately two and one-fourth. million pounds of butter. This does not include the tat used In the manu facture ot condensed milk or cheese. Greatest lfciiry County When it comes to pure bred cattle. Polk county probably leads anJother county in the state, or perhaps, any other county in any state. The reason for this la- Good dalrv farms: good dairy cows; good dairymen; gooa climate and good feed. Oregon Leads World The records made by Jersey home .and children suffering from mal-nutrition were , materially benefited. It was thought that in order to preserve the democracy of the school that it would be a better plan to furnish milk free to all in the lower grades, the amount to be raised by contribu tions from the parents. Mr. E. A. Rhoten. -president of the organization, appointed a com mittee, Mrs. J. W. Harbison, chair man, Mrs. Alton D. Hurley and Mr. Davenport, principal of the Lincoln School, to act in the mat ter as they saw fit, to finance and serve milk to the pupils if possi ble to do so. WillametteVaDey Prune Association : ! The oldest Association In the Northwest. t r W.T. JENKS Secretary and Manager J j Trade & Hifeh Sts. I Salem, Oregon breeders have enabled Oregon to lead the world in the number ot high producing record cows. Oth er breeds are just beginning to get a foothold and it will be only a few years until they, too, will be up In the front ranks of world record cows. These results are sure to follow, for when you can bring together nnder the most favorable conditions such ele ments as our rich valley soils, our mild, even climate, our wide wide range of roughage, our corn silage and kale, and put behind these the class of men who are now taking up dairying, and put ting Into the wqrk their best ef forts, we can confidently say that results are sure to follow. A Wonderful Country If we take a panoramic view of the" Willamette valley, then set down what may be done here by our dairymen and what will be done one day, truly we have a most wonderful eountry. Salem Hairy Center At a road crossing entering a valley town one used to read a sign, "The Hop .Center of-the World." Another near-by town, not to be outdone, erected a sign with the hand pointing in an other direction, "The Prune Cen ter of Oregon." Using the same logic, Salem Is well entitled to a sign, "The Dairy Center of the Willamette Valley." for, as stat ed in the beginning, east, west, north and south are rich dairy, lands, creameries, cows and well kept homes, and while the in comes in some of these homes are not what they should be. nevertheless, . where the cow is kept there Is always some income, and she always leaves richer soil behind her; o we close with that old quotation: "In the quest of Utopia, where everyone has the prudence to acquire and the pow er to enjoy, where everyone real izes to the fullest extent upon life's possibilities, the home seeker may well pause when he arrives at that community over which the dairy cow is queen for :here will he find the nearest ap proach to these conditions." J. D. MICKLE, Secretary Oregon Dairy Council. Portland, Ore., Oct. 17, 1922. About a Seventh of Oregom The biennial report of the dairy and food commissioner for Oregon, for the two years up to the first of October, 1920, show ed, for the latter year whicn that report covered, 17,414 cream shippers in Oreoni number of pounds of butterfat used for ice cream and other purposes, 210, 22; number of pounds oi creamery butter made, 15,202, 412. The same report, for the same time, showed the number of pat rons delivering milk to . chees3 factories as 1425, and number of pounds of cheese made,' 8,489, 229. And it showed 2557 patrons of condensed milk factories, with 90,000,000 pounds of milk pur chased from them, and 40,990, 011 potmds of condensed milk made. In the two years that have elapsed there has been steady growth -pt the dairy industry of Oregon; i but no greater elsewhere in the State than in the Salem district. Two years ago there were 86 creameries in Oregon; 74 cheese factories and nine condense! m'lk factories. The report for More and Larger Those You Have Why suffer with Stomach Trouble when Chiropractic will -Honrs the - last biennium, when It is made up, will no doubt show steady growth in these, especially in the number of creameries and cheese factories. . . - PASTEURIZATION: JUST WHAT IS IT? Merely Heating Milk in a Fixed Way; But It Pre vents All Epidemics Pastuerizatlon of the entire milk supply in the City of New York has. reduced the infant; death rate from 125 to 90 per thousand. 99 per cent of all milk consumed In cities of over 500,000 Is now pasteurized, and 55 per cent of all fluid milk consumed in all cities is pasteurized. ";. I Pasteurization is merely .the heating of milk to 145 deg. F. and holding for thirty minutest Thla kills all pathogenic bacteria in the milk; Heating to any. lower tem perature or holding for less time, only augments . the growth of these bacteria. After exhaustive experiments, the U. S. department of agriculture has at last disprove ed the contention that pasteuriza tion kills the vitamines. It has no effect on vitamines fat-soluble A and water-soluble B. .The slogan of the United States department of agriculutre Is BUY IT PASTEURIZED. , A very comprehensive exhibit at the International Dairy Show held in Minneapolis last week, showed an accidental, human experiment illustrating the usefulness of pas teurization as a safeguard against typold fever. The results would have been the same in case of any other communicable disease. Milk from oner farm went to two cities. In one of these cities the milk was sold raw and in the other it was pasteurized. A milker had typhoid fever and infected the milk. In the city where it was served raw, 12 cases of typhoid developed which were traced to that farm, but no cases developed in the other city where the milk from the same farm was pasteur 'sed. s - Not A Flaw In Record No epidemic of disease has ever been traced to properly pasteur ized milk. Pasteurization woud have, prevented the recent epi demic of septic sore throat in Portland. j Health authorities agree that a reputable dealer in pasturized milk is the strongest asset of the small city, where there is iittle or no official Inspection of the source or supply of milk or the manner in which milk is handled before delivery. i TWO YEARS AHEAD Remarkable Showing of Los Angeies burvey: the Ten Red Cross Rules Children who are regular milk users complete the eight Grade nf school work two years earlier than non-users of milk, was revealed by a recent survey made by Dr. Everett C. Beach of 55.000 school children in Los Anreles. Call fornia. The survey also disclosed the fact that the milk user war. superior In athletic contest to the non milk users. The Imnnrranoa of fresh, pasteurized milk In the child's diet was proved beyond question.

Considered from a personal standpoint, the two v years need lessly spent in the grades might t well have been nsed by the pupils themselves in high, school, college, business, o for better fitting themselves, for the economic struggle before them. How About Salem? ' The question of whether, milk ' will be furnished .in the schools In -Salem is -being considered by thinking parents. At " a recent meeting of the Parent-Teachers' association ofNthe Highland school the ' association took" action to make It possible for the children to be allowed to purchase milk at noon or recess. They obtained thehearty co-operation of Miss . Mabel Murray, the principal, who " has seen the effects in Portland and knows that the results ob tained by Increased efficiency more than offset the little extri . work put upon the teachers ii making the collections. It Is hoped that necessary up. port may be given this movemenl by those parents who are able t purchase the milk for their chil- , dren, as the Fairmont Dairy has generously offered to supply milk for those children whose parents k are financially unable to do so. Ten Red Cross Reasons The American Red Cross gives tea reason why milk is the best food wo have: 1. Milk strengthens the body to RESIST DISEASE. 2. Milk contains lime which helps bnlld HEALTHY TEETH. 3. Milk helps keep the DIOES-v TIVE TRACT in proper condition. 4. Milk contains the 'VITA- MINES needed for growth and v health. 5. Milk supplies the FUEL the -body needs to perform its work. 6. Milk helps REPAIR the 1 wear and tear of the body. 7. Milk builds STRONG v BONES. , . 8- Milk PREVENTS MALNU TRITION among children. 9. Milk gives proper BAL- , ANCE TO A DIET and Insures the greatest efficiency. 10. Milk gives MORE FOOD" VALUE for LESS COST than any other food. FARM Bins FROM TNE COLLEGE ' 0. A. C.
