SUBHCHHTION K a TKH One year Six inontha - . * . Thurwtav. I''»*1' 7 . * $1.50 .75 1918 The action taken last week by the directors of the Estacada Co operative Cheese Association in placing the business on f. o. b. factory door basis, is a sensible one and should prove so in the long run. This ba.* is means that hereafter all patrons .vill be paid for milk delivered at the factory, without deducting a hauling c h a r g e , which when based on an average for the entire community has amounted to from eleven to fif teen cents per pound butter-fat. The prices so far ['aid by the local plant plus the eleven to fif teen cents for hauling, would compare favorably with the top prices paid anywhere and the majority of other dairy products industries base their prices f. o. b. factory. The directors, R. H. Currin and C. R. Lovell on the Eagle Creek route; J. C. Duus of the Garfield route; Harney Shonberg of the Springwater route and G. E. Lawrence and Frank Ewing on the Viola route have lately called meetings a m o n g their neighboring milk patrons, ar ranging community deliveries in accordance with the f. o. b. tac- tory ruling. • This basis is fair and equitable and there is little reason why milk or cream should not be paid for delivered at factory or ship ping point, the same as bvcsiock or produce. When further allow ance is made for the absolutely fair tests given at the Estacada factory, with the prices of cheese having advanced last week, the dairy industry and the Estacada Cooperative Cheese Association ¡mould prove a profitable anange- menl for all concerned. The idea of the estaoushmenf of a Community Church, which a year or so ago failed of attain ment in Estacada. is now a reali ty in the neighlxiring town of Forest Grove, with four or* five denominations having agreed to overlook the minor details of or thodoxy and joining in united worship. It still seems possible that the Estacada churches might yet be united. with the combined forces act* *m| lishingten fold the amount of good for the community, than is now to the credit of the indi- \ idual denominations. A war Stamp a day keeps the Kaiser away. And now the Multnomah Ang lers’ Club, made up of Portland’s wealthy sportsmen, is agitating a law to prohibit the use of sal mon eggs for bait in trout fishing in the Clackamas River. It kind of makes us wonder, who owns the Clackamas River? We formerly had felt that the commercial fishing interests of the state dominated most of the good streams, but now our Port land sports want to place a fur ther restriction on the local angler, who lives adjacent to the Clackamas and who to date has done more for the preservation and propagation of the fish than any dozen organizations such as the Multnomah bunch. The editor, as secretary of the Estacada Rod & Gun Club, clear ly recalls that within the past three years, the several letters addressed to th e Multnomah Angler’s Club, asking for finan cial or other aid in the work of liberating trout fry in the Clack amas River and tributaries, nev er even received an answer. That refusal to even acknow ledge receipt of the letters has been typical of the real interest taken by the city anglers in the real work of restocking the streams. Scores of the fishermen from this community have put in many hours of mighty hard work, haul ing and carrying cans of trout fry for liberation in the Clacka mas River, Eagle Creek, Clear Creek and other smaller streams and no Portland sport aided one single bit in the work. The Portland sportsmen are largely tly fishermen of the most exquisite skill, with $20. rods and other paraphernalia to ma t c h . These men can also afford to trav el from southern Oregon to northern Washington to find fly fishing during at least six months of the year, but the Clackamas of fers not over sixty days of such angling, with bait being the only lure the balance of the year. What wont they ask for next? With the angler’s licenses now $1.50 and the fish racks and spec ial rulings making it harder each year to catch a mess of trout, now our Portland brothers want to cut down the chances still further.
