DANCE McELROY'S "Mellowmoon" Salem Friday, April 22 Silverton Armory Sat., April 23 Dates for the district Jersev fairs in the Willamette valley preceding the first annual Jersey state fair to ue neiu at. uie lair grounds in saiem on May 28 have been rescheduled and the following program will hold, according to an announcement made today by E. A. Khoton. Lane county Jersev owners will have a picnic near KtiKene on May 20, and Wa.shington county will have a picnic May 21, the next day. Dis trict or county shows will be held at MCMinnviiie lor Yamhill county on May 23, Albany for Linn county on May 24, Indcjwndenre for Polk on Mav 25. Salem for Marion countv on May zti, ana canuy lor ciacKa- m as county on May it. The first prize Jersey cattle from each of the.se shows or meetings will be eligible to compete at the state Jersey fair here on May 28. District shows, called Jersey juoiiees, nave been held before, but never since the Jersey breeders and owners first or- ganized have they had a state cham nionshiB fair before. The Oregon Jersey cattle club was first organ ized in Salem with W. K. Tavlor of Corvallis as president and the late N. MCArmur as one oi tne ac tive members. McArthur suggested the name Jersey Jubilee for the county Jersey shows and the Idea spread to all Jersey clubs, and later to clubs organized for other breeds. as the Holstein. Hilarities and the Guernsey Gaieties. The fairs here are similar to those held on the Island of Jersey, the or iginal home of the Jersey cow. In that small island they have parish fairs and the winners there are eli gible to enter the all-Jersey show. Here the country fairs correspond to the Darish shows and the all-Ore gon Jersey fair to the big fair on tV.e island. The Jersev cow has a stronghold in the Willamette valley. The world's record cow, Vive La France, made her debut here 12 years ago In the Pickard brothers' herd. Three years ago from the same herd Dar ling's Lassie set the greatest record of any time for any Jersey cow by producing 1141 pounds of butterfat in a year. This cow is now eight years old, and her mother, 16 years old Is still producing. Darling's Dolly Lnssie will be sold with all the other Jerseys of the Pickard herd at auction on June 21. 'Die Pickard I brothers are retiring from business. CHERRY CROP UNDAMAGED BY RECENT FROST The cherry crop In this section has not been seriously hurt despite the recent cold snap, Paul Tragllo, own er of 28 acres of cherries In Polk county, said today. "I have Inspect ed my orchard closely and have also just been through the cherry orch ards in the Liberty district and It Is my opinion that the cold spell has done this year's crop more good than harm. 'There were too manv buds on thp trees anyway, and the cold has froz en a few ol them here and there on some of the trees that I have seen. I have heard a great many predic tions that this year s crop has been seriously damaeed by cold, but In any case It will not be possible to check on the result of the cold spell until a week has elapsed. By that time the frozen buds can be fairly ! seen and an estimate of damage made that will be reasonably accu- ! rate.' Traglio says he believes from re cent visits to the principal straw- : oerry districts that the lirst straw berries will reach Salem tliii vear from Lebanon district between the ism and 22nd 01 May. SALE OF COWS FAST CRIPPLING DAIRY FARMING Unless farmers of Marion countv take nn Immediate change In theii attitude toward dairying there will lie a marked decrease in the number of dairy cows in the county at the close of this year as compared to last year, according to a statement made by Ivan Stewart, of the faim information department of the Charles R. Archcrd Implement company. i-ainornia and wasninton Oliv ers have been very active during the jKist lew months anct mis lactor, lope t her with a more or less general feeling on part of the farmers that here is too mucn work in connec tion with dairying, are having their iniltience on the situation, stated Mr. Stewart. "Farmers feel in manv cases they cannot afiord to hire la bor In competition with other industries." Mr. Stewart made these state ments after making a careful sur vey on condition of Marion county arms. We think of the dairying indus try as an inherent birthright In Ma rion county, and as the major en terprise In our diversified program. If it Is on the decline as certain in dications manifest, It Is a very seri ous problem and is a situation wheh calls for the pooling of energies and of wisdom, as well as for a unity of between farmers and business men.'' Continuing Stewart said: "Salem business men are vitally concerned about the thoughts which 1000 STUDENTS IN STRIKE FOR TEACHER SuDtrlor . Wis.. April 21.

'I'tik' CAPITAL are lumiiui over in the mind ol ;. good Salem prairie farmer, who th milking 18 cows, as to whether he j will sell the entire herd because there la too much work and not enough money in It. When thK t farmer was asked what he would do If he should sell the herd, he stated ; that he would hire out most of the i time. To give up the cows and hire ' out most of the time means to sink : back into the ruts of a one crop svs ( tern and to do more farming which I robs the soil of its humus and plant i food and In the end leaves it unpro- j ductive and dead. "In the unity of counsel nronosi- tion between farmers and business men in town, it sometimes strikes us that instead of everybody ol ferine .suKKcstions and undertaking to build iann proaucis up, mat some real effort should be confined in an at tempt to bring the price of other commodities down which the farm er buys, and incidentally to equal ize some of that almost $3 per acre tax burden which the farmer with the 18 cows has to pay. And In regard to the farmer, If he Is to com pete with the eastern Oregon dairy men he must adopt business meth ods in carrying on his affairs. The farm may be earning about all that it can. and still there mav be a chance to Improve the available In come by cutting down on the fix ed expense. Can feed bills be cut out by more economical rations; or by growing more and better legu minous feeds on the farm? Can wastes be averted by getting rid of boarder cows? Can hired labor be reduced by the use of machinery or by better planning of work? What about the future? Isn't it a mighty good plan to start raising good heif er calves when indications Doint to ward a decrease In dairy cows dur- tne coming year. TEST ARRANGED FOR LODGE WOMEN Silverton. April 21.
