If all the cattle in Oregon
were marketed through one big
cooperative selling association,
the stockmen would be placed
on an even basis with the pack­
ers in the fixing of prices. This
plan has been worked out with
wonderful success in some of the
middle west states, and the offi­
cial reports are on file in the
state market agent’s office. These
stock growers operate their own
stockyards. They control the
stock all the way through.
The margin between the flour
price and the bread price, for a
barrel of flour, has spread from
$10.40 to $18.30, while the price
of wheat to the grower is below
the cost of production. The De­
partment of Agriculture states
that a pound of bread that cost
the consumer 5.3 cents in 1913,
in Minneapolis, now costs 9
cents, while flour which cost
$1.43 a barrel in 1913 is now
$6.89 from the makers.

The Portland Chamber of Com­
merce has reversed its first de­
cision and is now strongly back­
ing the wheat export bill before
congress, and wiil send repre­
sentatives to Washington to
work for the law. At the recent
Portland meeting of the cham­
ber and the wheat growers of
Eastern Oregon the bankers
stated that many wheat growers
had turned their ranches over to
the mortgage companies: that
they are going deeper into debt,
and unless some measure like
the export bill gives speedy re­
lief, they will leave the farms
in great numbers this summer
and fall.
