JU ST GOOD BUSINESS JUDGMENT
The grocers
Tillamook
and
county
merchants
displayed
of
some
high class business judgment when
as reported, they deftntely agreed
to sell no make-believe butters over
their counters— or over any other
route, for that matter. Ju st plain
business judgm ent, that’s all. They
did not do it out of goodness of
heart, out of love for the dairy farm­
ers of the county, though they hold
the latter in high esteem.
They
knew down deep In their financial
consciousness that every time they
sold a pound of bogus butter they
destroyed the buying power of the
daiymen of that great dairy county.
Would that all the merchants and
business men of the great dairying
state of Oregon could likewise see
the light and help build up the genu­
ine butter Industry o f this state
rather than the business of the coco,
nut orchardlsts of foreign lands.
W hat kind of a dent would it
make In Oregon's indusrial life were
her dairy Industry, which runs lnt(
many millions annqally, destroyed?
Quite a dent. W hat would develop
in the health and stamina of the
people of the state were genuine
cow butter completely eliminated as
a spread for our bread, and milk and
cream as parts of our food ration?
W e do not care to let our lmaglna
ttons run on, thia unhappy possl.
W llty.' But certain it Is that every
pound of Imported vegetable oil sold
In the form of nut margarine is just
that much progress toward the des­
truction of the dairy Industry; Just
that much advance In the movement
now being unw ittingly made, for the
elimination of real butter, milk and
cream from our tables.
There Is, perhaps, more profit
made In handling butter substitutes
than In handling the real dairy pro­
duct, hut It Is at best a temporary
advantage It Is Insignificant com­
pared to the permanent value of the
dairy Industry to the merchants of
the state.
Tillamook merchants are wiser
than some of their fellows elsewhere
th/oughout the state. We biRt w op.
der if they couldn't do something
to convert some of their erring
brothers. Some of you dairymen
speak to them about it. It Is to their
advantage as well na yours to ban
bogun butter from the entire state.—
