A new impetus may be given
the fruit industry in this locality
by the introduction of Japanese
peaches, which are said to do
real well on Oregon soil and the
climate is all that could be asked
for.
The touch of Oregon weather
and sunshine, which we’ ve had
for the past week, came as a
welcome change from three
months o f almost incessant rain
and makes a person feel as though
life were really worth while liv
ing.
Peace is upon this nation again,
for it nas been definitely decided
that the Jeffries-Johnson fight
will be held at Colma, near San
Francisco, all other claimants for
the mill having been relegated to
the might-have-been class.

If, as it is proposed, throwing
the javelin in place o f the ham
mer is to be a new innovation at
our educational institutions, a
certain select few in an Oregon
city not a thousand miles from
good old Mt. Hood, could easily
qualify as post graduates with
out the assistance of a paid train
er.
Complaints are often heard
that silage taints the milk with
an unpleasant silage flavor.
Where milk o f the purest flavor
is demanded, silage must not be
fed. This, it is said, is the case
with those dairymen supplying
condenseries. While it is possi
ble that .’a cleaner flavored milk
can be secured from fodders other
than silage, it is possible to get
milk from silage fed cows that
will pass all the demands of high-
class trades. The silage flavor
o f milk can be avoided. It ap
pears on milk only where the
cows are fed before or during
milking. Milk when warm from
the cow is very susceptible to
taint and naturally it absorbs the
silage flavor if the cows are fed
silage while being milked or if
the odor is pronounced in the
atmosphere during milking time.
The time to feed silage is after
milking.
Remove the milk
quickly from the stable before
feeding, than it will receive no
such taint. There is never any
complaint about milk when silage
is fed in this way and by far the
greatest quantity of milk sold
and used is produced from cows
which are regularly fed silage.
Many feed it in summer when
pastures become dry ar.d at all
times when a big flow of milk is
desired. To avoid the silage
taint on milk it is wholly a ques
tion of “ feed it at the right
time” . Silage is here to stay,
and were it net for it there would
not be near the quantity o f miik
and butter available to meet the
demand of the markets.
OPTIMISM OH LAZINESS
About
“ How are you going to come
out about those honor marks?”
asked a gentleman of a high
school boy.
“ Oh, all right, I guess. I’ m
an optimist, you know, and al
ways look for the best” .
“ Be careful not to let yourself
spell ‘optimism’, 1-a-z-y,” was
the friend’ s warning.
Though “ optimist” is a word
of the superlative degree, it has
certain limitations. It doesn’ t
set the world on ball-bearings,
by any means; it doesn’ t make
even strenuous effort unneces
sary ; it offers no encouragement
to laziness. One is rationally op
timistic who looks for good rath
er than ill, who remembers that
good is stronger than evil, who
knows that good results can be
secured by earnest, dauntless,
persevering effort.
