MED FORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, MARCH 6. 1034. PAGE TTTREK STREWL ON TRIAL IN KIDNAPING NEGLECTING USE OF B.r C. W. Al'STIN City Milk Inspector. Since t.he stone age. the lot of man and cattle has United closely. They have crossed plalna, mountalna. dea erts and seas, and old "Bo&sy" hae ever done her share In serving man and the raising of his children. Perhapa this la the logical place to take the precaution of the good parson in announcing hla subject, to aid. not only the dairy Industry aa a whole, but the entire community of Jackson county. Emphasis was given the Idea of how to produce and distribute dsiry products better, instead of producing more. Applying this especially to market milk, it was shown that great progress had been made in spite of little or no profit. Economic condi tions have made dairying attractive, compared to other lines of farming, because it spelled cash. Beef has been low, and this has caused many dairy men to keep heifers, allowing them to freshen at a very early age, thua add ing to surplur;s. He Is thinking in terms of more. Instead of better. Unemployment has entered the situation, as In all lines, lessening buying power, and together with the consumer, they have both become in oculated with the thought of getting more, in place of getting better. The milk distributor has played nls part in this surplus picture. He goes out Imbued with the idea of getting more customers any old way. Instead of better ones, spending little or no time In Instructively inducing uses of more milk by good paying custom ers. Both he and the producer are often blinded by this Imaginary thought of getting more In place of better, and they sell milk and cream, and buy ao-called substitutes, thus stealing their own grain from their own cows, and then bawling louder than the herd bull. The middle man. apeculatora and atore-keepers stepped into this sur plus painting: they glimpse the hand writing on the wall, which spells fur ther surpluses in dairy products, and thev naturally delay buying, expect ing further drop, when they, too. may get more for less. The consumer can't be omitted and still have a. finished surplus picture. In his thought of getting more for less, he loses sight of many facts for lack of knowledge, and frequent remlndera. It's not alone what we pay. but it's what we gat for what we pay, that determines value. One can purchase a quart of milk and a loaf of bread (Hello. Heinle and the two Bills) and have a quite aus tainlng meal. So many illustrations point the difficulties, but like the man In Jail, after he Is there, the main thought is to get out. Another point stressed at the short course, was that the dairy industry had seemed to think their product would always be considered a staple and needed no special advertialng. They seem to think they can't afford It, even right In the face of phe nomenal successes showing exactly the reverse in thousands of news papers and by original methods. Proper advertising is not an expense it's an Investment, and can be so: proven right here In Medford. 1 Here is an old adage "He who hoi- j lera down the well about the goods' he has to sell, will never reach the shining dollars, like he who climbs a tree and hollers." i The human stomach's capacity Is; limited all sorts of foods and drinks. ; Some camouflaged and propagandaed are Insistently hollering from treetops. newspapers, 'adlos, etc.. for recogni tion, while milk, which la -unsurpassed." alta sleepily by. gurgling Its combined superiority over all down the sewer of surplus to oblivion.

(API gratifi cation over the decision of the Un ited States supreme court In sustain ing the price fixing provision of the New York milk control act was ex pressed here today by John D. Mickle chief of the foods and dairies bureau of the state department of agricul ture, in which is vested administra tion of the recently enacted Oregon milk control act. "In Its provisions, especially those relative to fixing minimum prices, the Oregon- act follows those of the New York act closely." said Mickle. "and such a decision by thf federal supreme court goes a long way to ward clearing up difficulties we have met fn administering the act here, paving the way to its successful op eration." Mickle said Oregon authorities had anticipated that the legal questions of the right of the state to fix mini mum prices and to exercise control over milk shipped in from other states in interstate traffic would be raised before this, but that the de cision of the federal court had dis posed of the more important ques tion. He explained that control over Interstate shipments Is of lesser Im portance here, because of reciprocal agreements worked with the state of Washington.

A resolution, upholding Max Gehl har, director of agriculture in his dairy program to protect the pro ducer, and charging that distributors and manufacturers of dairy products are bringing pressure to bear upon Gchlhar to Increase the differential of dairy products to the consumer, was passed by the Phoenix grange at Its last meeting and will be brought be fore the Pomona grange of Jackson county this coming Saturday. The grange members maintain In the resolution that one cent per pound spread for the manufacturers Is adequate and that one cent per pound spread to the retailers, instead of 3 cents, Is also Just and equitable. The resolution, bearing the Grange seal, la addressed to Mr. Gehlhar. and reads : "Whereas, the dairy industry is one of the leading Industries of the state of Oregon and constituting one fifth of the income of the state of Oregon; "Whereas. Mr. Gehlhar. the direc tor of agriculture of the state of Oregon, la doing all that Is In his power to put dairy products, pro duced in Oregon, to the consumers at a reasonable differential to the distributors and manufacturers of dairy products; "Whereas, the distributors and manufacturers of dairy products are bringing pressure to bear upon Mr. GehLhar to Increase the differential of dairy products to the consumers, taking It away from the producers of dairy products to the amount of a quarter of a million dollars; "We. the Phoenix Grange, a sub ordinate of the Oregon State Grange, do resolve to stand back of Mr. Gehl har. the director of agriculture of the state of Oregon, and do give him our hearty support and back him to the limit in what he is trying to do for the dairy producers of Oregon; be it further "Resolved, that the Phoenix Grange does hereby express Itself in this res olution stating that we agree with the directors' marketing order of January 18, 1034, and further agree that 1 cent per pound spread for the manufacturers Instead of 3 cents and that 1 cent per pound spread to the retailers Instead of 3 cents per pound is Just and equitable." T SHOULD BETESTED Fruitgrowers using orchard heating equipment for the protection of their fruit crops should at this time con sider the condition of thetr orchard thermometers and frost alarms, states County Agent L. P. Wilcox. An unreliable thermometer or alarm may cause either a wasteful burning of smudge oil or a frost damaged crop of fruit. By a simple test t'.ie error of the thermometer Is estAj- Ushed and the grower thus informed may read accurate temperature there from. Testing of thermometers and alarms Is a free service offered to all inter ested parties by the county agents office and the U. S. fruit frost service. Thermometer testing should be done each season, therefore growers are asked to check over their sup plies, discard all broken instruments and bring the others Into the agent's office to be tested. with District Attorney Geo.
