"In general the dairy prospects for Lane county seem brighter than tfiey have for the Inst few years." says O. S. Fletcher, county agricultural agent. While conditions are somewhat de pressed just at present, tue or.tlooi is favorable as ttcooomtc conditions are changing, Mr. Kletcl'-r believes. A few years u;o when tho prices of wheat, corn, and other dairy pro ducts were depressed, isiry prices were good. Conseqeutlv many farm ers went into the dairy business, thus helping to produce a heavy supply ol , dairy products, and lower their prices. Last year the prices for wheat. corn, and other products were goo.l, so these farmers aie selling their dairy cows and are going back to ; raising wheat and corn. This should bring dairy prices up a gain. Tin reaction will probably affect both the; persons who are in the business com- ; mereially, that is who are selling milk, and those selling breeding found.t- ; tion Block. ' The first herds of cattle in this locality were not real dairy type,' but were used for both dairy and beef, purposes. There were possibly a few good dairy cows among thuse brought in by immigrants, but for the wont part they were "just cattle." The ; first pure blood cattle caine In dur-1 utg the early eighties. "The dairy industry has made rapid strides in the last, ten years," mid Mr. Fletcher. "Oregon has developed a number of world champions of dif ferent breeds an-i ages; also some .r ; the best stock in the country has been, introduced into the state." Dairymen j have been educated to know what a good cow is, and how to make better ; cows of what tney have. j Jerseys and Holsteins predominate: in dairy herds at present, but Guera- seys nre being introduced. Herds vary in sire from one to 4' ! cows. Tbe 10"0 census figures show j that there were 17,4.'tO dairy cattle mi; Lane county at that time. "Later fU- ! ures are not yet available, but the number is probably nmnller now due to the fart that many farmers are go ing out of t'he dairy industry." Curves in Highway Will be Removed The corners in the McKenzie high way at the Sparks ranch will be straightened out for safety, according to Nelson Y. Macduff, Cascade na tional forest supervisor yesterday, after a survey of the road as far as the McKenzie bridge. Iteconstruclion of the rod will oc cur at the sharp turn just before reaching the bridge nt Blue River and a bad curve nt the upper end of the village will be widened. Mr. Mac duff said that work on the Nitnrod Blue River road section was pro gressing slowly owing to tho recent rainy spell.
