By F. W. Kehrll,
Dairy Field Agent for Eastern Oregon
The co-operative creamery about
to be started iu Heppner under the
management of I. M. Morgan, should
be a large factor In stimulating the
dairy business in this section. It is
to the interest of every farmer inter
ested in dairying in this vicinity to
stand behind this enterprise and lend
it his active support and patronage.
Here now you have the opportunity
to market your cream through your
own organization, and be sure that
you are getting all there is out of
your cream.
Unlike several co-operative cream
eries recently organized in other
parts of Eastern Oregon, this cream
ery was not organized through the
aid of a professional promoter. In
several such cases coming under my
observation, these promoters have
put in creameries which cost the far
mers from $4500 to $5500, and which
could be duplicated for not to exceed
$3000. The farmers could have
saved the difference by doing the pro
motion work themselves and calling
on experts from the college to assist
them in organizing. In this creamery
all of the money subscribed will stay
right here to go into equipment,
building, working capital, etc.
Two of the most important factors
for a successful creamery are that it
must handle considerable volume of
business, and it must have a ready
market for its product. In this
creamery the product of over 400
cows has already been assured, and
this will insure sufficient volume of
business to keep the overhead
charges down to a reasonable figure.
Heppner alone will be the market for
a considerable portion of this butter
during the greater part of the year,
and not much difficulty should be ex
perienced in disposing of the rest
Dairying is bound to become of
more importance in this section, and
a successful creamery will do more
toward bringing this on than any oth
er ftic'or. The best feed combina
tion for the dairy cow is alfalfa hay
and corn silage. Both of these feeds
yield well here where water is avail
able for irrigation. These two feeds
properly combined produce butter-
fat, through the cow, at a very low
feed cost per pound of butterfat.
However there is another factor
in successful dairying that Is just as
important as cheap feed, and that is
good cows. Few dairymen realize
the great difference existing between
individual cows in their herds as
profit makers. The only way to de
tect the "loafer" cows is to "weigh and
test the milk from each cow at reg
ular intervals for a year. Then you
are able to ascertain accurately which
cows are returning you a profit, and
which are the "boarders." There are
other factors that must be considered
in profitable dairying, but the above
mentioned are the most important
hut that the education of the heart
is more valuable; that it is the work
of the schools to teach the brother
hood of man and make great wars
an impossibility.
The most Interesting address on
industrial education was given by
rror. I . J. Newbill, of the Pullman
btate College. This was gratifying
10 tne writer, as Prof. Newbill was a
former pupil of the writ;r.
Among the school men from Ore
gon, who appeared upon the pro
gram, were State. Supt. Churchill,
Pres. P. L. Campbell, Pres. J. H,
Ackerman, Supt. L. R. Alderman
Supt. O. M. Elliott, Pres. W. T. Fos
ter, and Prof. Fred C. Ayer. The
writer was the only county super
intendent from Oregon, who had a
place on the program. One Montana
superintendent came to the meeting
bringing with her fourteen of her
teachers, the expenses of al! being
paid by the boards of education. The
City of Spokane did itself proud in
making it pleasant for the members
of the association.
Nearly all the meetings were held
in the Lewis and Clark High school
This school has a very commodious
auditorium. The lighting of the stage
has been so arranged that no direct
light falls into the eyes of anyone in
tne audience. The stage is large
enough to accomodate a glee club of
one hundred fifty members. The
windows throughout the building are
provided with tan canvas adjustable
shades, which make it possible to
regulate the light easily, preventing
a glaring light and still affording am
ple light when it it necessary to shut
out the direct rays of the sun,
THE BEST FROM JUDGE
COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES
By Supt. S. E. Notson.
The writer attended the Inland
Empire Teachers' Association at Spo
kane last week. Them eeting was, in
many respects, the best which the
Association has held. Among the
speakers of national reputalon were
Dr. A. E. Wlnship, U. S. Commission
er of Education Claxton, Commission
er E. O. Sisson, Pres. W. T. Foster,
Pres. Henry Suzzallo, and C. P. Zan-
er. Most of the addresses would have
been called very radical if they had
been delivered five years ago. Every
body recognized that the sentiments
expressed were indicative of the edu
cational revolution which is going on
around us. Dr. Claxton spoke of the
opportunities for working out edu
cational problems n the Northwest.
Here edcatonal theories may be sub
mitted to the test of the laboratory
In a way not possible in the more
conservative sections of the country.
Dr. Winship said that the day had
gone by when it is possible to have
a successful educational meeting
with only teachers present. He said
it is necessary to have business men
and other professional men in the
meetings, and above all that it is
necejsary to have representatives of
school boards. He thinks that it will
not be many years before the people
and boards will find it a good invest
ment to send at least one school
board member to such gatherings at
public expense. He regards the school
board section of the National Educa
tional Association, of which Mr. O.
M. Plummer of Portland, is the pres
ident, as one of the most valuable
sections in the association.
Dr. Sisson predicted that we are
near the time when we will have
schools in session twelve months iu
the year. The work will be modified
to make the summer work Include
much industrial work. Dr. Claxton
said that the schools must produce
efficient workers in the human hive,
but he said we must not forget that
we are more than machines for the
production of wealth. We must re
member that we are human beings;
that the things of the spirit should
not be sacrificed to the god of effi
cient production; that while making
a living is a very important part of
our work here, we should not forget
to live while we are making a living;
that industrial education is valuable,

The midnight stillness of the dark

"Wha-wha-what was that, dud-

About the Duck.
A little schoolgirl in Michigan has
written the fololwing essay on the
duck
"The duck is a low heavy set bird.
He is a mighty poor singer having a
coarse voice caused by getting so
many frogs in his neck and he likes
the water and carries a toy balloon
in his stomach to keep him from
sinking, the Duck has only two legs
and they are set so far back on his
running gears by nature that they
come pretty near missing his body
some ducks when they get big curls
on their tails are called drakes and
don't have to set or hatch but just
loaf and go swimming and eat every
thing in sight if I were to be a duck
I would rather be a drake they have a
wide bill like they use it for a spade
they walk like a drunk man they
bounce and bump from side to side
if you scare them they will flap their
wings and try to make a pass at sing
ing." Detroit Journal.

The minister hurried down the
aisle and grasped the stranger s
hand.
"I'm gdal to se you with us to
night," he said. "I can see by the
expression on your face that you are
laboring under some deep sorrow,
some great disappointment."
'You're right; I came in here think

got in, I didn't have the nerve to get

Probably Just a Lull.
Traveling through a new country
In which a raw boom town had
sprung up almost over night, a drum
mer put up one night in a so-called
hotel, where the thin partitions of a
range of bedrooms stopped, like the
stalls of a stable, half-way to the
ceiling. And in the stilly watches of
the night he lay awake and listened
to the finest demonstration of plain
and fancy snoring that it has every
been his fate to hear.
It was no straight-ahead affair, ro
bust, monotonous, but full of sud
den and awful variations. Sometimes
strangulation seemed imminent; then
in the middle of a fantasia the agony
stopped suddenly and there was si
lence. From far away down the stalls
he heard a voice exclaim, wearily:
Thank heaven! He's dead!"
