Imagination
Dreaming and imagining things
not likely to happen are two of the
most used of Nature's gifts. Imag
ination is the basis for practically
all successful undertakings. First,
we imagine a supposedly improb
able thing plausible. Then we pon
der over it so much that it becomes
a reality and we find ourselves do
ing it
There isn't a one of us who does
n't dream of something better than
that which we have. Dreams give
all of us a longing, and the ambi
tious strive to make these dreams
a reality.
When a student in high school
dreams, the student is doing more
than he realizes. He is planning
through these dreams for his life
after he finishes school. Whether or
not he later lives the dream depends
upon himself.
Is it not disgusting, especially in
such weather as this, to have some
teacher ask what happened in 1778,
or what does x equal, just when
you're making a million dollars or
winning a mighty important race?
It seems annoying to have our
dreams interrupted, but our dreams
would do us little good without the
knowledge necessary to carry them
out.
Right now is the time when we,
as students, should work for the
future as well as dream for it, so
that when we graduate we can
rightfully say that we have spent a
money-earning four years in prep
aration for the fulfillment of our
schoolday dreams.
Organize Tennis Club
Twenty members of the student
body have organized a high school
tennis club and are planning an ac
tive spring season. Plans are be
ing made to clean and roll the three
tennis courts in preparation for
running off a club tourney. The
club hopes to pit the winners of
this tournament against represen
tative players from other schools.
The following officers were elect
ed at the last meeting: Edwin Dick,
president; Bill Thomson, vice-pres-identj
Lorena Wilson, secretary;
Cleo Hiatt, treasurer; Marie Bar
low, sergeant-at-arms.
Benzine Ring Initiates
Donald Drake's name was official
ly written on the membership list
of the Benzine Ring following his
initiation at the weekly meeting of
the club last Thursday night. There
is only one vacancy in the club now.
The topic of discussion for the eve
ning the sprouting of seeds was
handled and illustrated very ef
fectively by Betty Doherty. The
Benzine Ring has been Invited by
the Star and Atom club of Lexing
ton to attend its meeting at the
Lexington high school next Wed
nesday evening. After a brief dis
cussion of a program to be given
before the assembly next week the
meeting adjourned.
Sweaters to be Selected
Members of the "H" club sweater
committee have sent for a number
of sample sweaters from which they
will choose the award sweater that

up in the third inning.
The seniors wop their fourth

PORTLAND TO GET
BIG DAIRY MEETING
Milk Production Control Plans
Just Announced to be Aired
For Entire Northwest
The long awaited detailed pro
gram of production adjustment for
the dairy industry has now been
made public and will be submitted
to the industry nationally through
a series of regional conferences,
one of which is scheduled for Port
land. Monday and Tuesday, April 9 and
10, are the dates set for the region
al conference in Portland to serve
the states of Oregon, Washington,
and northern Idaho, according to
notification sent the Oregon State
College Extension service by the
AAA officials at Washington. The
conference is being called by the
AAA and will be conducted by its
representatives, and will be attend
ed by producers and state college
representatives in the states includ
ed. The adjustment plan just an
nounced will be subject to final al
terations as the result of sugges
tions made at these conferences,
according to word from Washing
includes the following provisions:
1. Production adjustment aimed
at keeping the national production
to the approximate levels of recent
late winter months. To do this in
dividual dairymen will be offered
the opportunity to sign contracts
agreeing to reduce their sales of
milk or its products from 10 to 20
per cent below the average for 1932
and 1933. In return they will be
paid adjustment benefits amounting
to about 40 cents per pound of but
terfat and $1.50 per hundred pounds
of milk on the amount they reduce.
The individual dairyman would be
permitted to select any method of
reduction he might choose, such as
reducing feeding, eliminating some
cows, using up the excess supply of
milk on the farm, or any other
means.
2. Provision is made to distribute
a considerable quantity of surplus
milk through the relief administra
tion to under-nourished children.
3. Some cows will be purchased In
surplus areas for transfer to sec
tions of the country where needy
farm families having no 'cows will
be able to keep them without the I
products reaching the market. In
parts of the cotton and wheat belts
many farmers have kept no cows at
all. Now with the reduction in
wheat and cotton acreage, it is be
lieved these farmers could each pas
ture one or more cows on contracted
acreage with benefit to their fam
ilies. 4. Certain funds will be set aside
to help finance more speedy eradi
cation of diseased cows, such as
those reacting to tuberculosis and
contagious abortion tests.
5. This $165,000,000 plan will be
financed from a processing tax
strating at one cent per pound of
butterfat and increasing to five
cents per pound as the supply is
brought under control.
In calling attention to the nation
al situation that makes some form
of production control necessary, the
Washington officials point out that
there are more cows being milked
in the United States at present than
ever before in the history of the
country. The total is now about
18 per cent above the number re
ported in 1928.
Except for the fact that the av
erage production per cow is now
far below what it was five years
ago, caused by less feeding of con

centrates, there would be a far
greater surplus than now exists. As
it is, national officials point out the
potential production from this in
creased number of cows is so great
that any material increase in price
without production control would
only aggravate the present difficul
ty. Oregon in 1933 had about 255,000
head of milk cows kept on about
40,000 farms. The national total is
around 25,000,000 cows. Oregons
production in 1932 was reported as
1,284,000,000 pounds of milk yield
ing 55,000,000 pounds of butterfat
Assuming that the reduction un
der the plan would be 15 per cent,
Oregon farmers would thus be eli
gible for about $3,300,000 in benefit
payments on the basis of 100 per
cent participation in the plan,
which, of course, is never attained.
