POWELL VALLEY Pacific Live Stock Exposition Dairy * Show to Be Large n The live stock breeders of the East have been working to achieve perfection for nearly a century and they have secured rem arkable results, but the pictures rhown above are not anim als from the East and th eir type would not shame the skill of any breeder on earth. They have beautiful conformation, style and quality In every line, and would stand high in any dairy show in the world. One of these anim als Is the junior Holstein bull calf shown at the Pacific International last year. He came from Hollywood Farm , Hollywood, Wash ington, and won high honors. The other is a Jersey heifer calf from Iron Mine farm at Oswego, Oregon, also on show at the Pacific International. The quality of dairy anim als of all breeds on the Pacific Coast is a source of perpetual surprise to the dairy breeders of other sections. W ithout losing type, they have size and constitution, which the dairym an loves, and which any animal must have to endure. The dairy industry of the Pacific Coast has grown steadily since Its in ception. This is partly on account of the favorable clim ate and wealth of feed produced here. The possibilities for increasing the output of dairy products nre almost lim itless. There are m arkets both at home and abroad for many tim es the am ount of cheese and butter now made. The difficulty has been largely due to the unprofitable cows. High quality of anim als will do away with this. There is no place east or west, north or south, where one interested in dairy cattle can find so many in one place and Belect feuch quality as at ths Pacific International at North Portland, Nov. 6-12.
