The overwhelming ma jority of the republicans in Oregon makes the chances of democrats in November .slight unless the republicans (boost; the wrong man when there will be a possibility for the right democrat provided he is selected. Two democrats seek nomination to the senate, former governor Oswald West and former supreme court justice, Will J. King. Of the two, .Mr. West, with a constructive record of accomplishment, will make the best senator, for his restless activity and energy, which is a leading charac teristic, will insure for Oregon what Oregon needs. Two republicans seek the scnatorship, Senator McNaiy, who wtis appointed by the governor to succeed Harry Lane, and Jiiihei't X. Stani'ield, millionaire sheepman and wool speculator, speaker of the Oregon house of representatives. Senator McXary has made a good record during his brief term of office, has supported the president in his war poli cies, and been active in Oregon's interest; Ho represents the progressive wing of the party, while Mr. Stanfield rep resents the reactionary element, the "stand-patters" or iis they style themselves, the "100 per cent republicans.'' Stanfield 's nominal ion probably insures the election of Mr. West. For governor there are two democrats, Lee Stark weather of Oregon City, a former member of the legisla ture and State Senator Walter X. Pierce of Le Grande. Of the two, Mr. Pierce is the better known and the better qualified, having been prominent in state affairs, with an excellent record in public and private likv Six republicans seek nomination as governor. They are: .1. J'. Anderson of Wasco, who as a member of the legislature drafted the bone dry law; K. 0. Harlcy, mayor of Astoria, who wants the manufacture of light wines and beer permitted and is making his campaign for governor by attacking Senator McXary; Hits (!. Mosier, president of the state senate, who four years ago sought nomination as candidates of the "wets;" icn W. Olcnlt, present secretary of state; Louis J. Simpson, the (!oos Hay lumberman and Governor Withycombe. Of these, the real contest is between Withycombe and Oleott, with Simpson, supported by the lumber interests, looming as a possibility as a generally conceded that the and secretary of state. As governor, Air. Withycombe has not made a particu larly brilliant record. Many of his appointments have been poor, lie started out by trying to reverse every policy in augurated by Governor West, and ended by reversing him self and adopting them, lie abolished the'honor system at the state prison and his muddling produced such a reign of anarchy that he was forced to restore it. llv made a scan dal out of the flax experiment, lie litis gone out of his way to aid the power grabbers and forced intervention by the state in behalf of the power trust in Utah. Nor does his record for economy and efficiency compare with that of his predecessor. Despite his amiability and cordiality, Governor Withy combe never forgave Jackson county for voting against him, and has seen to it that no state patronage came here There have been no appointments to state office, outside the county, to reward the faithful. He denied us represen tatives on the important state boards, such' as the state highway commission, the game commission, and the indus trial commission, lie left us representation on a few hoards that we had before, but took away our members on the state board of health, state pharmacy board and other bodies. Governor Wit hycombe has, however, supported the war policy of the federal governuniet and seeks re-election as "war governor," yet in comparison with other governors, like that of the governor of Michigan, his record seems barren of accomplishment. Beyond the creation of a body of state police, which he announces will be used to enforce the prohibition law as well as guard shipyards, the state has done little. Moreover, his council of national defense litis no representation of any political party stive his own. Mr. Oleott is admittedly the best secretary of state Oregon ever had. He has been efficient and economical. As i member of the state board of control, he has displayed lcvcl-headedness ami sound business .judgment. He fre quently clashed with the governor but time has proved that Oleott was right. His experience in state affairs fit him for the highest office. The only charges his enemies make against him is that he hits not been a narrow par tisan. 'Oleott s nomination will mean his election. .This can not be said of any other candidate, for Mr. Pierce will have ti fighting chance against tiny other candidate in the field; for party lines set loosely oil the thinking people of Oregon. Selecting Cows for the Dairy Herd The milk producing ability uf the cows in a ilairv herd is u mutter of lirt importance. A greater variation exists among dnirv cattle Hum in any other class of livestock, and it is much more ditl'icult to pick Ibc good individt:,N. Tin- makes it erv im portant that delinite knowledge be hud reuardmg the external cxidcticev of milk prodncinc ability. The only ale-ohilclv sure method of selecting good cows is to wei-h ami test the milk for n considerable period of time. A single da's icld and lest will not do. I Mien, however, lln weighing ami testing is not possible, and cows uiii-t he .elected nnd lioueht when nothing authentic regarding their production is known. I'nilcr these conditions knowlcdce regarding dam type and conforma tion is of first importance. It is possible to select good dairy cows with n lair deem' of accuracy if otic is familiar with the conformation that MEOTOIID WATC TRIBUNE, jVIEDFORD. OTIEGOX. TUESDAY, MAY 34, 1918 dark horse.

Ibgcstic capacity is shown by n large deep body with long wide apart, well sprung ribs. .Milk secreting ipinlilics are shown by a large, good sbasil udder that is soft and pliable when empty.
