THE future prosperity of Oregon, in a large
measure, will be wrapped up in the fast-growing
dairy industry and that is why every encouragement
should be given to milk production here in Jackson
County.
With 248,000 cows and heifers over two years of
age, milk production in this state reached the record
figure of 1,364,000,000 pounds during 1939, bring
ing cash income to fanners of approximately twenty
million dollars!
That's an important factor in Oregon's economic
picture !
This sum is half again greater than the income
from wheat harvested and marketed; nearly twice
the cash return from sheep, lambs and wool; more
than twice the value of eggs and poultry.
The ancient Hebrews, in describing the Promised
Land, promised that it would be "flowing with milk
and honey." Oregon is well on its way toward becom-
? il Ti i r a
mg me rromisea juana.
DAIRYING is an important industry in Jackson
With 11,500 milk cows two years and older, this
county is fast becoming an important dairvinz sec
tion. Cows here are well known for their high produc
tion, too, ana. tne nigh butter fat average per cow.
Monthly inspection and careful supervision have
brought the herds of Jackson County up to this high
standard. Herds here are generally healthy, dairies
are clean and sanitary, processing plants are thor
oughly modern.
.With continued, sensible regulation and full co
operation on the part of producers, this industry of
ours should continue to grow. Increased land under
irrigation the aim of the Jackson County Chamber
of Commerce's agricultural program will provide
pastures for more' and larger herds.
THE milk cow has flayed an important part in his-
tpry a temple frieze in the ancient Chaldean
city of Ur, 6,000 years old, pictures men milking cows.
In America, pioneers always included one or two
sturdy cows when prairie schooners were outfitted for
the westward trip ; every family "kept a cow" in those
days.
With changing times, milk production became
literally a "big business." Cities grew in size and the
friendly cow could no longer be a part of the family
entourage. Population increased by leaps and
bounds. .
That called for greater production and new meth
ods of processing and deli'vpr-v T7irIo,. 7n - . e

butter, ice cream and other dairy products.
And the American habit of drinking milk has
brought the consumption of thp avpi-ao-o oit;,cv, i o

field.
As a small
child the pro
fessor, while
visiting friends
of the family
through exces
sive modesty
deterred defec
ation for two weeks, without any
noticeable 111 effects.
Ever since that experience the
professor's colon goes on a two
weeks' strike at irregular inter
vals. Although in the course
of his lifetime he has become
accustomed to his colonic idio
syncrasy, he has worried about
it, wondering if there might be
some growing obstruction.
The professor had always tried
to correct the condition with
strong cathartics, but such
physic, if it acted, always seemed
to leave conditions as bad or
worse than before that is, there
was a marked binding after
affect. One such strike occurred
whpn the professor was staying
in Florence. A physician there
gave him this advice:
"Above all, take no cathar
tics. Eat abundantly of solid
food, especially of stewed
fruit, instead of limiting your
diet to liquids and raw fruit
as you have been doing, then
report back to me in a week."
Then the professor laconically
adds that he didn't have to re
port back which was fortu
nate, I say, for even a univer
sity professor might well bog
gle at that.
Five years passed. Then the
professor laconically adds that
he didn't have to report back
which was fortunate, I say, for
even a university professor
might well boggle at that.
Five years passed. Then the
thing happened again. This time
the professor let things ride and
increased his abundant intake of
stewed fruit. At the end of two
weeks matters resumed their
normal course and he now feels
better than ever. This time he
did not worry about obstruction.
auto-intoxication and the like,
and the discomfort was slight.
He describes his experience
because he thinks it is an ex
treme case and might interest
some of our readers.
I publish the professor's report
because I believe it may tend to
people who worry too much
over similar strikes of a few

Washington, May 17. When
the German invasion of the low

unpleasant emotions of the mo

the most important members of

president started work on his

the two defense departments
and the treasury had not even
sat down together to discuss
what ought to be defended, how
much it would cost, and how
soon the defense could be pre
pared. In truth, so far aa enn be discov

By FRANK JENKINS
DREfaiUENT ROOSEVELT, in
"stark, realistic words" (the
quotation is from Thursday's As
sociated Press report), calls upon
the nation for immense new de
fense preparations to meet the
menace of new weapons now
spectacularly in use in Europe.
Such preparations, he says
(and no one can disagree with
him), are essential to our con
tinued safety.
IT is idle now to speak of the
vears of reckless spending that
have piled our national debt
mountain high.
It is a waste of time to speak
of the years of misguided promo
tion of class hatreds, prejudices
and suspicions that have ham
pered our ability to produce.
It is useless even to mention
that if Britain and France hadn't
been led to expect American
backing against Hitler a realistic
settlement might have been ar
ranged in Europe without war.
All that is water over the dam.
WHAT remains now is to
MAKE OURSELVES SAFE,
""he lesson of what happens to
i.ations that for one reason or
another have failed to make
themselves safe is too crystal
clear to be ignored.
The way to make ourselves
safe is to be prepared to defend
ourselves against all comers.
JUDGING by what is being said
in Washington, we have made
little more than a beginning (in
spite of all the billions we have
spent) toward making ourselves
safe. So we 11 have to turn in
now and do the Job.
THERE is no occasion for hys-
teria. Unless we stick our
necks out much farther than we
already have, nobody is going
to attack us at any time in the
near future. We'll have time to
do the Job that has to be done, i
The big thing Is to DO IT EF
FICIENTLY, so that when we
get through we'll HAVE SOME
THING. IN these days when the world
we and our fathers and our
grandfathers have known Is
being shaken to its foundations
and may fall (as other civiliza
tions have fallen). Pollyana
twaddle to the silly effect that it
isn't as bad as it seems and
everything will come out all
right is as out of place as a
red tie with evening dres.
