The letter is a follow: Hume of the following facta Con commit milk coinlenwry were gleaned from Ir. J. T. Wood, genera manager of the lakiina alley Con denied Milk company of Amity Ore. Dr. Wood liaa Uen to Twin Fall where he took part in the big drawing content where he waa for tunate enough to secure three KO-acre tract, one for himaelf and two for other urtic whom he reproitented lie atopped in this city short time on hi return home and wan inter viewed concerning the condcnd milk factory of which he i the general manager and a some of the eople in thia locality are interested in that businesM, what ho hit to say may Iks of iutereit. Ilia factory i now UHing uliout ;!(),( HKJ pound of milk per day During tho months of June and July they pay almut $1.25 ir hundred for four ier cent milk, which is the bun in on which they figure. They claim that this gives the farmer his regular price for the cream at the creamery and allows him about liO .cents per hundred for his skimmed milk. Prices of milk vary, of course, with tho season tho same as other estab lishments of tho samo kind. Ex perience has shown that where con densers have been established the .country adjoining tho factory has been very pronperoUH. lo cited Washington county, Ore gon, as an exumplo, showing how pros perous the country had grown. That county has been tho most thoroughly developed of any in tho state Aud nearly till the land has been divid ed into 20 aero tracts. The farmers are all well-to-do and independent through tho sale of milk to tho factory, Thero is another loaturo about the business, according to Dr. Wood and that is the feed on which the cows aro leu. Jle says that it makes a great deal of dif forence the kind of feed the en ttlo eat, where the milk is used in a coiidensery. Thero must not be the least un natural odor or tasto to the milk, therefore ho said he did not know just whether tho alfalfa fed cows would produce milk that could be used in a condonsery or not, but that could easily be determined by making inguiry of the government experimental station. lie stated that the best feed that has been found to his knowledge, is the oat hay mixed with clover or a kind of pea vine which grows very extensively in the Willamette valloy.
