Antelope Dairy Could
Sell 13 Pet. Milk
If antelope gave as much milk as
cows, they would be a veritable
gold mine for dairymen, judging
from an analysis of Oregon antelope
milk recently made by Dr. J. R.
Haag, agricultural chemist at Ore
gon State college, for the United
States biological survey. The analy
sis showed that antelope milk has
very nearly the same constituents as
evaporated milk, and has even more
fat.
The analysis showed total solids of
24.7 per cent in antelope milk, com
pared with 12.8 per cent in cow's
milk, and 2G.5 per cent for evapor
ated milk. The fat content of ante
lope milk was 13 per cent, com
pared with 3 to 5 per cent for cow's
milk, and 8.2 per cent for evaporated
milk. Antelope milk was also found
to be about twice as high in protein
as cow's milk, and practically the
same as evaporated milk.

Rural Areas High
in Traffic Accidents
Eighty-one percent of the fatal
accidents in Oregon during the
month of June were in rural areas,
according to a summary of the
month's accident reports prepared
by Earl Snell, secretary of state.
There were 35 deaths during the
month and 624 persons were injured.
Accidents totaled 2,862.
Of the 33 accidents in which deaths
occurred, 27 were on rural high
ways, 18 on heavily traveled roads
and nine on lightly traveled high
ways. There were three fatal acci
dents in business districts of cities
and three in residential areas.
Of the total of 2,862 accidents, only
25 per cent occurred outside urban
areas, thus one-fourth of all the
traffic mishaps of the month caused
more than three-fourths of the fa
talities. Pedestrian fatalities constituted 28
percent of the traffic deaths of the
month, non-collision accidents ac
counted for 48 percent while crashes
between two or more cars account
ed for only 17 percent. There was
one bicycle death and one motorcy
cle fatality. Sixty percent of the
pedestrians killed in accidents were
G5 years of age or older and 70 per
cent of those killed were engaged
in some unsafe action at the time
they were struck.
Intersections were the scene of
nearly half the traffic crashes of the
month, but only 15 percent of the
fatal accidents occurred at intersec
tions. Forty-eight percent occurred
on straight-aways and 30 percent
occurred on curves.
Excessive speed led the list of
driver actions contributing to fatal
accidents during the month with
driving off the roadway second and
driving on the wrong side of the
highway third. Sixteen fatal acci-'
dent drivers were in the 15-24 age
group and 15 were in the 25-39 age
group, these two groups accounting
for three-fourths of the fatal acci
dent drivers of the month.

serious injury at the Heppner ele
vator Monday noon just as he was
