PRICES !
FOR JERSEYS
McKee Sale Goes Off Splen
didly and the Herd Is
Dispersed:
Twenty-six animals sold for
$13,680. or an average price of
$526.15, at the McKee dispersal
sale of Jersey cattle at Indepen
dence Tuesday. : j 4
This is one of the most famous
Jersey herds in the world, j It con
tains one world's champion cow.
Lad's Iota, with a record of 1048
pounds of butter fat in a year,
and a number of other animals of
almost equal merit. One cow
now on test Is expected to reach
above the 1000-pound mark, and
there are possibilities in some of
the younger animals that are "be
yond the dreams of avarice."
Telegraphic and mail bids were
sent in that covered close to 100
animals; some of them of course
being duplicates.Bids came from
a dozen states; and animals were
sold to be shipped to four states.
One $500 heifer goes to Utah;
three animals that brought a total
price of $2300 are shipped to F.
A. Kennedy at Windson. Vermont.
This buyer bought the j highest
priced animal In the sale, a six-months-old
bull calf that brought
$1050 cash. A number of animals
were bid on from Alabama, bids
that ran well up into top prices;
but all these were on animals that
the home folks knew so well that
they outbid the outsidersJ
The dispersal of the McKee herd
Is a .real loss to the organized
Jersey business of Oregon, as the
herd has been a centsr for con
structive breeding for years past
The prices are perhaps not one
half what they would have been
three years ago; and th 3 Califor
nia foot-and-mouth, frenzy has
damaged all blooded stock Bales
through its' unwarranted scare
eten this far from the scene of its
operations. But a dozen ambit
ious breeders' have bought stock
that will build splendid herds for
the future, and tonight there are
a dozen or more homes that are
bugging themselves in j ecstacy
over their wonderful purchases.
I A crowd of 1000 people attend
ed the sale, and in any cases the
bidding was very spirited. Lad's
Iota, the : great champion cow,
brought $950, and Lad's Little
Pauline, another mature cow of
almost equal performance record
brought $750. The lowest price
was for a tiny calf that brought
$165., . . ; ,

charged that much propaganda
had been Issued against It. He
said he wished to deny newspaper
stories portraying the measure as
either a "socialistic or bolshe

Representative Schallj republi

"trusts" have been setting prices
"right and left? and "it would be
a strange thing" if the farmer
cannot 'even get the protection of
the tariff he is entitled to in com
parison wih other basic industries.
Opening debate, v Mr. Hangea
gave an exhaustive review, of the
measure's proposals while opposi
tion to the bill was voiced by Re
presentative Linthlcum. democrat,
Maryland, who several times Inter
rupted the debate to make a 'point
of no quorum." .. . .

he .'declared would., "only .hasten
and intensify the impending cal
amity," was1 proposed by Repre

The Rainey bill would create a
commission to be composed of the
secretaries of commerce and agri
culture, the chairman of , the tar

trative commissioner to be select
ed by the president. Should the
commission, at any time, find that
a surplus production existed for
export in wheat, flour or the food
products of swine, it would be au
thorized to require the president
to declare an emergency under
which the provisions of the meas
ure would become operative. '
