He said that there is now available 600 to 700 gallons of goats milk per day trib- utary to Cave Junction, and that this was enough milk to establish a cheese factory. He also told the Chamber that this valley was the only place in the United States where Roquefort cheese could be manufactured. Explaining that the fungus, that is necessary in the manufacture of Roquefort, lives in the caves here and will not live in any other part of the coun- try. France, so we are told, is the only place where this fungus will live and where Roquefort can be manufactured, It sells for $2.75 a pound and about a million and a half pounds are imported in to the United States every year. Several people are looking for farms where 10 to- 15 acres can be planted with alfalfa and enough acreage for grazing and brush land for goat raising. Mr. Hussey told the Chamber of the new truck company that has just been established in the valley giving daily truck service be tween Grants Pass and the entire valley. He urged all merchants to patronize the new line. Mr. Johnson, one of the proprietors of the new company, said that they had put into effect one of the lowest rates on feed stuffs ever given to merchants and farm ers of the section. Mrs. Pearsall also urged all merchants to pat ronize our own and see to it that the company gets enough business to make it a paying proposition.
