PARTY TO INVADE
Portland Commercial Club
Representatives Carry
Urgent Invitation.
In order to arouse interest in the
meeting of the Oregon Development
League to bo held August 19-21 at
Klamath Falls and to personally carry
a cordial and urgent invitation to the
business men and ranchers to attend
that convention a pary rem ese ting the
Portland Commercial Club, the rail
roads and the newspapers ia now mak
ing an automobile tour ot Central
Oreiron and will devote all of this
week and next to a series of meetings)
for the purpose of securing delegates
to the 0. D. L. gathering.
The party left Portland last Sunday
for Bend, the latter being the real
starting point of the tour, being pre
ceded bv s letter addressed to every
commercial organization in the terri
tory to be covered giving the itiner
ary in detail. This advance notice
will enable each community to make
preparations for a large attendance at
the meetings to be held on arrival of
the party. It is hoprd that the ex
curison will result in securing infor
mation which will enable the Oregon
Agricultural College and the Portland
Commercial Club to help Central Ore
gon in the development of its resources.
STATE AND FEDERAL
i
The United States Divison of Dairy
ing in co-opreation with the Extension
division of the Oregon Agricultural
College, will in the future maintain
a dairy field man who will assist the
farm dairy men of Oregon with many
problems of successful dairying.
Professor W. A. Burr has been select
ed for this important work with head
quarters at Corvallis. His assistance
means a visit to the dairy farms when
derated, suggestions on building np
more profitable herds, feeding and
management, ham, silo and milk
house construction, and record of fetd
and milk weight. The use of the
yearly record book for each cow will
he shown, whereby the profitable cow
may be selected and the unprofitable
cow detected an eliminated from the
herd.
Professor Barr calls attention to
the need of better oows. A profitable
herd, he says, can be had within four
or five years by using a pure bred sire
and making the actual record the
guiding; factors in selection. Assis
tance will be given committees in the
relection of dairy bolls, the organiza
tion of cow testing associations, and
in every way possible, without any
cost to them.
A few davs ago conracts wero let at
Medford for the construction of a
(40,000 precooling and storage plant,
the contract calling for its completion
by the 15th of August, in time for the
first shipment of peari. The build
ing is to be 80 x 24 feet in size and
will have a capacity of 100 carloas.
The time is now ripe for the various
communities in the state to become
active in the selecting samples of
grains, vegetables, fruit etc. for dis
plays to be made at the various
Eastern land shows this Fall and Win'
ter. Southerlin reports a fine collec
tion under way, and it is hoped that
every section of Oregon will come to
the front with a liberal quanltity of
their best products. No amount of
written or printed boosting can be as
effective as a well staged display of
actual products of Oregon gardens and
ranches.

TRI COTNTY Fl
Oregon Conservation Com
mission Promises Suitable
Prizes For Event.
The Oregon conservation commission
will continue this vear its policy of
support of tho Tri-County fair to be
held at Condon, probably the first of
September. It will offer attractive
prizes for the best colletive exhibit
made by those whoexcell In the grow
ing of grains and grasses, the canning
of fruits and the production of butter
and eggs.
The commission oilers a seties of
cash prizes first, 4100; ssoond, $50;
third, $25: and to too next five scoring
highest, $10 each for "the best col
lective exhibit of farm products, in
cluding gains, and grasses in bundles:
threshed grain; fruits and vegetables,
butter, eggs, canned fruit and veget
ables, grown in either Sherman, Gil
liam or Morrow counties. Scoring U
to be on the following basis:
The greatest variety 40 points; the
highest average quality, 30 points;
the best general appearance or display,
20 points: the best story of how these
products were grown and produced,
not exceeding 1000 words, to be judged
on practical rather than literary mer
it, 10 points. Total, 100 points.
There was held nt Condon last vear,
for the three counties, a fair that
attracted special trainloads of people
from Portland and the districts nearer
bv. It had been said that these coun
ties were retrogressing, that products
weie lessening in quality and quantity
and population becoming smaller. The
gospel of diversified production and
intensive cultivation was preached
among them by agents of a movement
oreanized by J. N. Teal and others.
Instead of growing wheat vear after
vear on the same ground wihout en
richment, field peas, alfalfa, milo
mai.e, Kaffu corn and other crops are
alternating with wheat. Hogs and
livestock generally are being produced
to the profit of the farmers. Dairy
ing is being found a business that
pays. Sherman, Morrow and Gilliam
counties have commenced to "come
back."
SEEKING A REMEDY.
It is pretty generally agreed that
the producer gets too little for his
commodities and that the ultimate
consumer pays too much. The needful
thing is to find a remedy. Some sug
gest that the middleman or middlemen
be eliminated. It is complained that
too many handle any article between
its leaving the hand of the producer
and reaching that of the consumer,
and that each one of them makes too
large a profit. Doubtless there is much
truth in that assertion, but themiddle
uian cannot be entirely done away
with. Evary bushel of wheat and corn,
every bale of cotton, every head of
cattle must necessarily pass through
several hands in order to reach the
consumer, and eacli one is entitled to a
moderate profit. Still in all likeli
hood there are tco many middlemen
and that in many cases they take too
large a toll.
Probably there may never be a re
turn to the low prices that prevailed
a dozen or more years ago, uni yet it
is possible to effect a reduction if
some things are do:ie. Begin with
the producei. It is in order for him
to make an acre of land produce far
more than It does. It is notorious
that with many crops the yield per
acre is actually less than it was, a
fact which in itself is evidence of
wastful farming. While the average
yield in this country has been going
down, that of European countries is
going np as the result of scientific
and intensive farming.
Also the consumer may materially
help the solution bv greater economy.
It is a discreditable fact that in
these days of soaring prices when so
many families find it hard to make both
ends meet there is manv a home
where enough good food is wasted
every day to keep a family well fed if
only it was properly utilized. Then,
too. it must not be forgotten that the
question is not solely one of high cost
of living, but that it is also one ot
high living. The standard of living
is higher than it was, which in itself
is a good thing, in that it indicates
greater comfort, refinement and pros
perity. There is not one of us who
would be content with the much
vaunted simple life of our forefathers.
People now must have as necessaries
what our ancestors called luxuries,
and that meins expense.
The conclusion of the whole matter
is, that H is hopeless to expect a re
turn absolutely to the low prices of
former days, for the simple reason
that conditions have chanscd. But '
that it is possible to reduce materially
the present cost of livirg is certain!
if very possible methods are followed.
