Brandt, head of the Dairy Husbandry department at 0. 8. C. Prof. Brandt was one who dwelt particularly on quality and cleanliness. He stated that the edast .section of Oregon ranked second to eastern Oregon in quality, with the Willamette valley third. In cost of production per cow the coast country stands first, eastern Oregon second and the Willamette valley third. . Cleanliness in milk production must start with the utensils used, Mr. Brand affirmed. It makes no differ ence how clean the cow’s udder or the barn ia if the milk pail, can or separa tor have not been thoroughly deemed. A 92 per cent scoring butter is only possible from dean milk and the higher butter scores the more of a • premium is paid for it in the butter markets of the country. In introducing County Agent Geo. r H. Jenkins, Mr. Martindale said that the Coos eounty agent stood head and shouldem above many eounty agente in the Northwest, and ho did not refer to his height, either. Mr. Jen kins devoted his remarks to a more general discussion of the farming business in Coos county and did not confine himself to dairying. He waa followed by Paul V. Maris, director of Extension work at O. 8. Cn and head of the eounty agent work of the state. He urged all dairymen to stick during these trying times, even with the low prices of milk and but terfat and declared that a farmer or dairyman would be no better off else where. -> Several motion pictures were shown, and F. M. Simpson of the com mercial research department of the company In Chicago and H. Kelly of the produce department gave inter esting talks, the first on advertising as it rotates to the sale of farm pro ducts, and the latter on dairying. Of the more than 1,600 pounds of food that the average person eats 529 poundi are dairy products and 47 pounds are eggs, according to Mr. Simpson. “All foods." he said, “are making a bid for the consumer’s dol lar, and they are making it largely through advertising.
