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.
