R. Robinson Otters Few Words Con
cerning Handling and Care of
Milk.
DALLAS, Or., May 19 (To the
Editor.) I wish, through you, to tell
the farmers in the vicinity of Dallas
that I will be ready to start making
cheese in Dallas, Monday, May 28,
unless something happens that is not
looked for now. I hope every farmer
that has milk will make up his mind
to give me a fair trial, as well as to
give the preference to his home town
I also wish to say a word about the
milking, and saving the milk, and It
is simply this: Be cleanly in every
thing connected with the milk and
milking. This costs nothing. Attend
to the cooling and airing of the milk
during the first hour after taking
from the cow in the evening ; then you
will have very little trouble with it
afterwards. Keep the night and
morning milk in separate cans as
much as possible. If you have a cold
spring, set the cans of milk in it over
night, but in any case, attend to it
riffht away after milking, and you
will find there is no need or excuse for
having milk sour when it is only 15
or 16 hours old. Saving milk is like
saving meat : If you neglect it till it
spoils, salt petre won't make it good
again. So with milk; airing, baling
with a dipper, stirring it in any way,
is as important as cooling, and do not
cover it up, until it starts for the
factory. Now that is easy, isn't it?
Then I would say it will not hurt
your milk to drive several miles. The
shaking is a benefit rather than an
injury, and if the top of the can is not
air tight, all the better. If you have
a separator, don't fret about not using
it. If someone talked you into buying
it, that is no reason that you should
use it, if you can make more money
by letting it lie idle. And I say, in
all sincerity, if you will patronize the
cheese factory for a year you will find
you have no use for the separator. I
have seen this proved in many cases,
but all I could say along this line,
would be too much for this writing,
and I will speak of it again.
After you try the cheese factory, you
will find there is less trouble in getting
the milk ready for the cheese factory,
than in any other way of dieposing of
it.
The milk will be delivered at the
factory in the morning. If you live a
distance too great to deliver it by
wagon, I will try and arrange to have
it brought by train, especially on the
Yamhill division, where it could be
delivered every evening, and, if in
good condition, I can save it till next
day.
In conclusion, the farmer with five
cows will get the same treatment as
his neighbor with fifty. I cannot do
otherwise and expect to hold the
business.
Yours Respectfully,
R. ROBINSON.

To Repair the Bridge.
A committee, consisting of County
Judge Coad and Commissioners
Kiggs and Riddell of Polk county
and Councilmen Gesner, Downing
and Steusloff. representing the city,
and Judge Scott and Commissioner
Needham, thoroughly examined the
steel bridge and decided to make some
needed repairs. It was agreed to ad
vertise for bids for the repainting of
the bridge with paint that will stand
the exposure. It was also the concen
sus or opinion to secure the services
of a bridge expert to thoroughly ex
amine the superstructure. Among
the" immediate repairs will be
the redecking of the main span of the
bridge. Salem Journal.

INDORSE FRUIT INSPECTOR
Polk County hruit drawers Urge
Against Sale of Diseased or
Wormy Fruit.
A meeting of the Polk County Horti
cultural Society whs held at the court
house in Dallas, May 19, for the
purpose of indorsing J B. Nunn,
County Fruit Iuspector, in. his work
of enforcing the law against fruit
growers who have neglected to spray
and clean their orchards, and also
for the purpose of discussing plans
for making a fruit exhibit in this
county next Fall.
The meeting was callod to order by
President H. S. Butz at 2 p. m. The
minutes of the meeting of March 17,
were read and approved.
The President then called for a re
port from the membership committee.
O. H. Cobb, chairman of the com-
mitteee, made a verbal report, stating
that he had secured 21 additional
names since last meeting and thought
he could secure at least 40 more.
Talks were made by several mem
bers praising the work of the County
Fruit Inspector the past year in in
ducing the farmers to spray and
prune their orchards. Mr. Nunn then
gave a synopsis of his work for the
past year.
O. H. Cobb introduced the following
resolution: "We, The Polk County
Horticultural Society, do hereby
heartily endorse Mr. J. B. Nunn,
County Fruit Inspector, in his work
of compelling farmers to spary and
prune their orchards, and also in pre
venting the sale of diseased and
wormy fruit, and that this Bociety will
do all in its power to aid and en
courage Mr. Nunn in enforcing the
law, that the fruit of Polk County
may be second to none in the United
Stat." The resolution was adopted
by unanimous vote.
The matter of holding a fruit fair
next Fall was then considered, with
the result that the following committee
on arrangements was appointed :
Peter Kurre, of Independence, chair
man ; D. L. Keyt, of Perrydale ; J. B.
Nunn, O. H. Cobb and H. S. Butz, of
Dallas.
On motion of H. G. Campbell, the
meeting adjourned to meet at the coll
of the President.

Results Prove Disastrous:
At the June election, the Woman
Suffrage measure will be presented
once more for the consideration of the
voters of Oregon. At the lastelection,
this great menace to the prosperity of
the State was defeated by but 2137
votes. Twenty-seven thousand two
hundred and eighty-three electors dis
played their ignorance or indifference
to the measure by refusing to vote at
all, for or against it. In the ntates
where Woman Suffrage has been
granted (Colorado, Wyoming, Utah
and Idaho) the results have proven
disastrous, not only to the prosperity
of the States named, buttc the political
conditions as well. Experience has
demonstrated that the great majority
of women do not want it and will not
use it. The consequence is that the
good American women do not use
their right to vote, but the foreign
born women and women of the
brothels do, as this class is practically
compelled to vote as dictated by
"bosses" and police. The argument
that Woman Suffrage purifies politics
is false. On the other hand, experience
has demonstrated the fact that Suf
frage has made bad matters worse.

STRONG COMPANY . COMING
Mr. Lee Willard and His Capable
Players Will Appear In Dallas
Next Week.
In the coming of Mr. Leo Willard
and his company, the lovers of good
acting and strong plays will have an
opportunity to enjoy themselves. By
the enterprise of G. N. Cherrington,
this capable company has been secured
for an engagement of three nights at
Woodman Hall, commencing Wed
nesday, May 30.
In referring to Mr. Willard and his
company, the most flattering com
ments have been made by Oregon
newspapers concerning this exceed
ingly talented and romantic young
actor. Neighboring towns that have
had this company cannot speak too
highly of the finished aggregation of
artists.
Mr. Willard has supported such
leading actors as Frederick Warde,
Richard Mansfield, Henry Miller,
fance O'Neil and Bertha Galand. At
his recent appearance at the Belasco
theater in Portland, he received the
highest praise of press and critics.
The company will open its engage
ment in Dallas with a border drama
entitled "A Western Gentleman."

Indians Purchase Tombstones.
A short time ago a number of the
Grand Ronde Indians received from
the government an apportionment of
$ 100 each on account of sales of lands
in which they were Interested, and
some of the uses made of the money
give evidence of the effect of civiliza
tion and education among them.
Several of them have been to the city
the past week and purchased neat
tombstones to be placed at the graves
of departed relatives. Few more com
mendable practices could be adopted
from the example of their white
brethren than the care of graves of
the departed. Salem Statesman.
