THURSDAY, MARCH 11, 1937. THE HERMISTON HERALD, HERMISTON. OREGON ARE FIVE FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION A MESSAGE TO EVERY MEMBER. CO-OP. CREAMERY MEMBERS MEET 4-H CLUB WORK CENTRALIZED (Continued from page 1) feed consumption of dairy cows, ill ustrating by the use of a chart used to total weights and production of the dairy herd kept in the experi, ment of feeding hay and grain, and hay alone, over a period of three years, starting in 1934. Cows on hay and grain feed aver aged 318.8 pounds of butterfat over the three years, and cows on hay alone averaged 263.0 butterfat pro- duction, a difference of 55.8 pounds butterfat production. For this pro duction 29.5 pounds of hay was re quired and 4.74 pounds of grain to produce one pound of butterfat. Ou hay alone 38.7 pounds of hay was required to produce one pound of butterfat. Mr. Dean pointed out that the health of the cows on both rations was good with no breeding troubles and the weight at the end of the year was practically the same as at the beginning. He stated that a bul letin was being prepared and would be issued through the Oregon State college in the fall. Mr. Dean stated that molasses could be used in feed without caus ing offensive flavors in milk. Jay T. Pierson, new assistant county agent, met with members of 4-H clubs at his office Saturday af ternoon to discuss organization and work for the coming year. Mr. Pierson expressed the desire that club memberships could be increased and each present member pledged himself to gain one member with in the next few weeks. If member ships in two clubs does not justify their operation Mr. Pierson believes the combining of these boys and girls Into one club will make a stronger and more efficient club. He expressed this belief at the meet ing but no definite action has been taken. Mr. Pierson took the names of six club members who expressed the de sire to obtain a new calf, and these calves will be purchased locally if breeders can supply them. Leaders present were Miss Lois Hutchison of the Blue Ribbon Calf club, and A. E. Rugg of the Pro gressive Calf club at Umatilla. W. R. Barber, who acted as leader for the Columbia Winner's Dairy club last year, has moved away, and the club will elect a new leader soon. Dr. Wilster Sneaks. Notice of Annual Meeting of Dr. G. H. Wilster, well known by dairymen over the state as an author and professor at Oregon State col lege, was an interesting speaker on the production of butterfat. He stat, ed that Oregon was becoming known as a dairy state and for the fine quality of dairy products, with one million pounds of milk produced in Oregon last year, one-half of which was used in the manufacture of but ter. Twenty-five percent of this fat produced In Oregon is manufac tured by cooperative creameries, and of butter produced in the United States, two-fifths is manufactured by cooperative creameries, of which there are 1500. Dr. Wilster complimented the board of directors and members of the local creamery on the fine con dition of the business and stated that all success in this line could be attributed to good team work, lead ership, management, good banking connections, and products which will yield the highest returns. In order to have this fine product there must be a definite objective for highest quality, efficient manu, facture and economical marketing of the finished product. The Interstate Associated Cream eries produced six or seven million pounds of butter last year, one fourth of which was made in Oregon. In this production it was necessary to produce uniform quality butter, with good spreading quality, smooth texture and uniform color. The lo cal creamery is a member of the as sociation. Dr. Wilster touched upon the work of the federal food and drug administration three years ago hich started to eliminate market ing of cream unfit fo- human con- sumrtion. They tested 150000 cans cf cream out of which 45,000 was condemned r apn i nt. Hermiston Mercantile Co-op. The annual meeting of the Her miston Mercantile Co-operative will be held at the reclamation building Saturday, March 20th, at 8:00 P.M. Every member is urgently reques ted to be present as several matters of importance will come up for dis cussion. E. H. Dunning, Mgr. Old Time Dance. Shippers Association. The Umatilla Livestock Shippers' association will make another ship ment of stock Wednesday, March 17, and anyone interested in shipping may list their stock with the assist- county agent, at the cooperative store or at the creamery. SMUT CONTROL TREATMENT (From The Oregonian) A dry basic copper sulphate treat ment for smut in wheat, oats and barley is particularly superior to wet treatments like blue vitriol and formaldehyde in seasons like the season just past, William F. Cyrus, Washington county agent, says. Any time grain is treated by dip ping it or wetting it and seeding is done under conditions such that it will not immediately sprout and be gin to grow there is danger of los ing it. Failure to grow may be either dry weather or a wet, cold soil. The tendency to rot is naturally much greater where a wet treatment has been used. As a control for smut, dry basic copper sulphate has consistenntly proven, during the past few years, more effective than the wet treat ments. The effectiveness of the dry dust treatment, however, is depen dent upon the thoroughness with which the dust is mixed with the grain. Ye’ Oide Time hard time dance at Westland Saturday, March 13th.

F- % T he 60-horsepower Ford V-8 engine was first developed for Europe, where fuel costs are high. Two years* usage there proved its unusual economy. When the “60” came to this country this year, the Ford Motor Company made no mileage claims — waited for facts, written on American roads by American drivers. Now Ford “60” owners are reporting averages of 22 to 27 miles on a gallon of gasoline. That makes it the most economical Ford car ever built! Best of all, the Ford “60” is just as big and roomy—just as handsome, sturdy and safe — as the famous 85- horsepower Ford V-8. And it sells at the lowest Ford price in years. If you want a big car for a small budget—a car you can drive with pride and profit—see the thrifty “60” soon! FOR SALE—ONE WHITE SOW, 11 gon, pursuant to Ordinance No. 170 one month old pigs.
