High producing records made by 21 dairy herds enrolled In the Uma tilla Dairy Improvement Association wins a place for themselves on the honor roll of the National Dairy As sociation This honor became known when N. C. Jamison, extension dairy man with the Oregon State college, left certificates for these herds at the assistant county agent’s office recent ly. Each year the National Dairy association places on Its honor roll and awards a certificate to the owner of each dairy herd enrolled In testing Work and producing more than 300 pounds of butterfat for the year. The Umatilla association has just started its third year of testing work. During the two years Just completed many noteworthy records have been made by members. One herd prob ably the most outstanding was one of 1* Holstein cows owned by T. H. Haddox. This herd during 1929 pro- daeeg an average of 450.4 pounds of butterfat and It Is thought to have completed a similar record this past year. It ia a common thing for one or two eowe in a herd to produce 450 pounds or more, but It is a rare thing for a herd-of 1* to make such an average. A herd of 5 Jetesy cows by F. C. ToW bu MI« • year ly average of 414.6 pounds of butter fat and 388.3 pounds were produced by seven Jerseys owned by H. M. Sommerer. The following Is a list of herds, number of cows and the herd average of the 25 dairymen in the Umatilla association whose herds produced more than 3Oo pounds of butterfat during the year from Dec ember 1, 1927, to December 1, 1928, and they will be awarded a certificate at aa appropriate meeting In the near future.

This puts him at a very greut dis advantage, and those bidding on the turkeys three weeks before the mar ket Is established In the East, natur ally discount the prospective market very heavily. Then, due to the size of the pool, there are comparatively few bidders, and of course, there is nothing to prevent these bidders talk ing values over among themselves, before they make their bid, In fact, the natural thing for them to do. The successful bidder, that Is, the highest bidder. Is awarded the pool, and one of the stipulations Is that he or they Immediately deposit In a local bank sufficient money to cover checks Issued to the producers for eighty or ninety per cent of the amount they are to get for their tur key«. That Is. each Individual pro ducer Is paid a hlrh percentage of what he Is going to ret for the tur keys he delivers to the pool. Right here Is the weakness of the whole thing. If this could he <h«need. the association handling the eel could actually market the tur- Xej3 iu&iiad of auctioning them off as they do now. I understand that none of the associations Is financed to any great extent, and they do not need to be, but the members of these organizations must give up the Idea that they must receive a check for eighty or ninety per cent of the value of their turkeys the minute they are weighed utf. Where do you think Henry Ford or General Motors would be If they put all the cars they manfacture every year or every six months, on the auction block. They would get nowhere using that system. Instead they themselves market their own cars In centers where there Is a de mand for them, just as the turkey producers should do. Just why a turkey producer should Insist upon his money the minute ho delivers his product Io hlg associa tion has never been clear to me. If Instead of this, he delivers them, and gave his organization time to pack them nnd get them sold, or started east, there would be sueh a short de delay In receipt of his money that Hm> would hardly need to he con sidered.
