' - ' I, I il 'i i I- CALIF. DAIRYMEN In a recent Farm nureau mcetlnR the point was brought out by the creamery men that Oregon butter would not bring the same price on the San Francisco market as would Cali fornia butter of the same grade. The reason Riven was that California con sumers will not use on an equal foot . log, any product produced outside of the state wben their own state is pro duclng tbe same product. That Is the "California- Spirit," und that Is one of the reasons why bur sister state is prosperous. We need that same spirit here in Jackson county.' The farmer needs tbe Jackson county spirit, the busi ness man needs to develop It, and the general public should think In terms of Jackson county first. Successful cooperation Ib a matter of give and take by all concerned. It means that every one must be willing to sacrifice at timet) for the good of society as a whole. Along with the work of the Farm Dureau for a better, bigger, more pros perous Jackson county 'Will bo carried this thought of looking out for our selves first. The Farm Dureau is strong for the Jackson county spirit. ' Ono of the plans of the Farm Dureau l'or 1923 Is to boost for the dairy in dustry from every angle possible One 'question they will attempt to answor is: Why Isn't the dairy Industry thriv ing hero In Jackson county? ' Mr. Nllcs, manager of the Illvor banks farm near Grunts Pass, ono of the most progressive and successful dairy men tn the Kogue River valley. Bays: "The farmers of this section must learn the valuo of corn silage and alfalfa bay." He states that the Illinois experiment station, over a period of six years found that an aero of corn silage and alfalfa bay will pro duce three times as much buttorfat ns, an acre of the best blue-gras pas ture. 'We know that Jackson county noeds a lot more silos. Tho suggestion of Mr. Nlles Is worth considering. : Wo hope that we may got somo data on tho subject hero In this locality.

A house though but a humble cot, within Us walls may hold A home of priceless beauty, rich In love's eternal gold Waterman. Development of a Home The words "house" and "home" are often confused. The home expresses the family life lived within the house. Tho house la tho place where tho homemaker gathers furnishings to make the home more comfortablo and beautiful. Hern the homemaker works out standards of living, holds up ideals before her family, all of which aid in creating the "homo spirit," which we talk about. All homemakers should recognize the fact that a bouse may be elegantly equipped nnd furnished, may have every convenience and com fort and yet fall to be a "homo." Whether it Is to bo a home not sim ply a house depends largely upon the homemaker. We are gradually coming to soo the nobility of the profession of . home making. The English people havo long been noted for their love of home and their skill as uomomnkers. Today American mothers ore not satisfied at having their daughters trained only In such subjects as Latin, muthomatlcs, and music; but thoy are also demand ing that thoy bo trained In the great , business of homo-making as well, Today oducators are showing . us that our daughters will bo bettor wives and mothers and happier home- makers if thoy are taught definitely how to. apply their chemistry, litera ture and art to tbe real problems that thoy will moot lutor as homemakers. The home should stand for rest. comfort, health. Inspiration nnd for the spirltuul development of each momber of the family. In the Ideal homo the father and mother work to gether in accomplishing the desired alms. Each home has an individuality, but no family should be a - disorganized group, living selfishly in the "four walls of home." It has been said that "no community Is better than the nvernifo home In that community." Thus tho ideal homemaker will befte ' fit tho community through her cooper I atlon In community affairs and thru tho influence of her homo.

When tho farmer prospers wo pros per." "The business man needs the far mer more than the farmer needs the business man." "Any time I can be of any help to you call on me." "You have sold us a membership.' "How can I join your organization?" "Never thought of it that way be fore. You are right. It is to the inter ests of the business men to boost the farmers' interests." "Tbe farmer must put his work on a business basis." "We sure want to help in this move ment." "Wo have, boosted for the Farm llureau from the very start." More Opinions on the Farm Bureau "The Farm Bureau is the same to tho farmer that the chamber of com merce Is to tbe business man." A Farmer. "In my estimation the Farm Bureau has been the source of the greatest uplift that has come to the farmers of Jackson county." A Farmer's Wife. "Its greatest good will possibly come through legislative channels; It has made tho Farm Bloc possible and for that reason I ought to Bupport It." Farmer. "If you don't belong to the Farm Buroau you are a 'Scab.' A farmer who has been a Union Man." "We have been told on good author ity that this valloy is an Ideal dairy section, yet tho dalrymon aro not prosperous. It the Farm Iliiroau suc ceeds in putting the dairy Industry on a paying basis, it will have fully Justi fied its existence." Farmer. ' "Maybe after a few knock-downs and drag-outs and a number of fresh starts It will come out all right." Farmer. "Tho bankers get together occasion ally for an exchange of Ideas and if the Farm Bureau servos no other pur pose It will be a great benefit to the farmer." A bankor. "That 'In. unity there Is strength' has never been more fully demonstrat ed than . during tho comparatively short time the Farm Bureau has been in existence. Can you give ono good sound reason l'or not becoming a mem ber now?" Farmer. Of courso tho work that the Farm Bureau is doing Is good so far as it goes, but it you wont a real job that will touch every .armor's, tender spot, tackle tho job of reducing Ills taxes." Farmer, 1 The Farm Bureau Idea Is Ol K. but. In my opinion, the former la his own worst enemy, continually stand ing In his own light. If the business man is really In earnest about desir ing the farmer's success ho can ren der no greater service than to explain to his farmer friends or customers why it Is desirable that lie should be long to his own organization nnd to urge him to do bo. This is tho answer to the business man's question as to what ho can do or what tbe Farm Bur- roau wants him to do." Farmer. Boost for Dolrylng s MINNEAPOLIS, Mar. 10.

ASK ABOUT OUR The executive committee of the Form Bureau feels that very farmer In the county owes to the Medford Mall Tribune and Sun a voto of thanks for- the efforts thoy have made to make our Farm Bureau Week a success. They hove surely shown them selves a friend of the farmer and his organization. ' The farmers can show their ap preciation by patronizing their friends. The success of the campaign has certainly demonstrated that these papers reach the people and that advertising in them brings big results. ' 4.

Last December a Farm Bureau unit was organized. There are 30 families in the immediate vicinity and so for I this year 20 memberships have been secured and all but five of these are paid up for the year 1923. , Up to the present time the 'members themselves havo furnished their en tire programs. In fact so many prob lems have come up for consideration that they havo been obliged to hold two meetings per month. Such topics as the need of a cannery, Improved I market conditions for the dairymen and the poultrymen, rood . improve- I ment, etc., havo come within the scope of their deliberations. From time to time outside speakers, pictures, etc., will make up part of the pragrums. While tbe legislature was in session Do you know that we ship our goods in car loads direct from the factory?

' This Is a practice that might very woll be more generally followed by Individ uals as well ns by orgonlzed bodies. ' The splendid spirit of cooperation developed in this community has made it much easier to do other things which were not strictly Farm Bureau projects. . It seemed very desirable to have the mail route 'changed and ex-'' tended nnd. by meeting the county T court half way on the necessary work the road was Improved and the post office department allowed the change. In another meeting arrangements were made for the improvement of another stretch of' summer road by putting in a culvert, picking off the ; recks and by dragging. Each community has its particular problems and the first step in their solution is the neighborhood gather ing whore these things may be freely discussed. Having secured that much tho remainder comes much more. easily. H. R. II., Talent, Oregon, Incub ators i Fruit Company PARMER 1 Warehouse So. Front St. iS So. Iluillclt riionc 20.1
