New Plant Opening Marked
As Boost To Dairy industry
." Most important event in the
Jackson county dairy industry
was the opening of a new
manufacturing plant by Jor
genson'i dairy company early
in the year, according to the
annual report of the Jackson
county extension office.
Facilites were provided for
the manufacture of icerean
and ice-cream novelties. The
plant has the potential to
manufacture cottage cheese,
cheddar cheese, powdered
milk and condensed milk in
the future.
County agricultural author
ities reported that this opens
up a large potential market
for manufacturing milk. How
ever, they also report at the
present price of this grade of
milk there is little incentive
to increase production.

creamery was reported as pay

livered to the Rogue River
Valley creamery in 1957 was
11,201,413 pounds as com
pared to 12,293,997 pounds in
1956. This marks a slight de
crease in manufacturing milk
production in this area and is
possibly the cause of the
creamery raising the price

stated
A volume of 18,600,000
pounds of milk was handled
through the Grade A Pro

volume in 1956, according to
the report from those three
organizations. It represents

is said to be about equivalent
to last year's production.

CHIT CHAT
By JOE COWLEY
Mail Tribune Farm Editor
A meeting may be set up in the near future to discuss
the dating of insecticides, fungicides, pesticides and herbi
cides, according to a letter from Robert J. Steward, director
of the state department of agriculture. The letter directed
to Ward Spatz, Medford, member of the state board of agri
culture, mentions the willingness of the northwest section of
the Western Agricultural Chemicals association to meet with
those people interested in the question.
During a recent meeting of the group "considerable
question was raised about the validity of any dating program
even on organic pesticides," according to Steward's letter.
This organization consists of a group of manufacturer's rep
resentatives.
The Jackson county agriculture committee is pressing for
procedure compelling manufacturers of insecticides, fungi
cides and other such chemical products to designate the date
of manufacture either on the label or some place on the
container. A number of farmers in Jackson county have
suffered losses when material they used for control of an
agricultural pest proved old and defective. One such farmer
lost over $1,000 on his clover crop when slug pellets proved
ineffective.
J. D. Patterson, head chemist for the state department
of agriculture, wrote that dating of concentrated pesticide
materials would be of little value. In most cases he said,
formulated pesticides are stable with dating having little
significance. However, in some formulated pesticides (ready
for application) a dating should show when a pesticide's
effectiveness is questionable, Patterson said. Present infor
mation on products on which dating limitations may be de
sirable would include certain organic phosphate pesticides,
nicotine, pyrothrine and certain chlorinated hydrocarbons
in some formulations, the chemist said.
This question was put to Dr. L. C. Terriere, pesticide
research chemist, agricultural experiment station, Oregon
State college; Dr. Paul Richter and associates, entomology
department, Oregon State college; National Agricultural
Chemistry association, Washington, D. C, the legislative
committee, northwest section of Western Agriculture Chemis
try association and the secretary of the association of Ameri
can Pest Control officials, Maryland.
Dr. Terriere believes dating of some materials might be
helpful. However, he believes proper storage and handling
is more important. Dr. Richter questions the value of general
dating. He also wonders what the date would specify
time of manufacture or of packaging. A list of short-lived
materials with expiration dating should be established, he
suggested.
Industry recognizes the stability problem and governs
manufacuring accordingly, according to the legislative com
mittee of the Pacific Northwest section of the Western Agri
cultural Chemistry association. Industry which fails to take
this "stability" factor into consideration would soon be out
of business, said the committee. Also, pesticides are coded
and industry on request will supply prospective consumer
information, its members added.

No state laws on this problem are known, according to
the executive secretary of the Association of. American Pest
Control officials.
.Due to the limited manpower assigned to economic
poisons law enforcement, checking for a complete "dating"
program would be poor, authorities state. When requested,
the present law allows an official sample to be drawn of
any product whose potency is questionable.
Some question has been raised regarding use of Randox
on onions. According to a letter we received recently from
the Central Point area. Randox used on this particular farm
er's field proved to be completely useless and is believed to
have been harmful to onion yields. Our information was
obtained from the annual report of the Jackson county ex
tension office. An extension agent said this weed and grass
control chemical has been used effectively around the Tal
ent area. Its effectiveness depends on how it is applied and
the local conditions, he explained. Anyone desiring further
information should contact the extension office.

Salem Almost 40,000 head
of cattle were inspected at
slaughter houses in Oregon
during the first six months of
1957, according to state de
partment of agriculture figures.
When the full year's fig
ures are compiled, it is esti
mated more than 100,000
slaughter plant inspections
will be recorded for 1957.
It is illegal for slaughter
house or packing plant oper
ators to permit the slaughter
of any livestock until it is in
spected by an Oregon brand
inspector. The inspections
may be made either at the
slaughterhouse, at the point
of origin or enroute to the
plant.
Slaughterhouse -opera tors
are also required by Ongon
law to keep a copy of the
brand inspection certificate of
all livestock for a period of
one year from the date the
certificate was issued. ,
There are approximately
135 slaughterhouses located
throughout the state. An Ore
gon brand inspector is as
signed to each one to do the
required work there.
Brand inspection at this
time costs 20 cents per head,
and the slaughterhouse oper
ator is responsible for collect
ing this fee from ranchers
who have their livestock in
spected on the premises, and
paying it to the inspector on
duty.
A new duty of the Oregon
brand inspectors is assisting
meat inspectors in their work.
The 1957 legislature passed a
law which requires all live
stock to be inspected before
and after slaughter to deter
mine whether or not it is
wholesome for human con
sumption. Brand inspection

personnel will be utilized in
some areas to help with this
lay inspection work.
Besides their field work and
duties at auction yards and
slaughterhouses, one thing
most Oregon brand inspectors
have in common is member
ship in the Ancient Order of
the Blotch. This is an organ
ization of brand inspectors
the first of its kind in the na
tion. Henry A. Matschiner, su
pervising livestock officer or
iginated the idea for the order.
The group has as its goal
greater companionship be
tween state brand inspectors
which brings about a better
understanding of brand in
spection problems throughout
the state. Members hope the
organization will be adopted
by brand inspectors in other
states and eventually become
a nationwide group. Already
several western states have
asked the state department of
agriculture for information
about the Ancient Order of
the Blotch.
Midway Auction Yard Rates
As Small Industry In Area
Last Friday at the Midway
Auction yard near Central
Point cattle brought the high
est prices in four years.
Top on steers was 26 cents
for a single and 25.10 cents
for a truck load. According
to Bill Bray, owner and man
ager of the yard, this is seven
cents a pound increase over
the same period last year
All cattle are up in price
A big demand for them has
been brought about by the
surplus of feed. This surplus
of feed has held certain class
es of cattle off the market,
Butcher cattle are scarce
Then, too, Bray explained the
big build up in cattle i;um-
bers in the late 40's and early
50's has now been eliminated
The cattle are more evenly
distributed. Adding to this
condition has been the fairly
recent drought on the Pacific
Coast, particularly in Califor
nia, and the continuing
drought condition in the mid
west which hit its peak two
years ago.
"Just stockmen in the busi
ness now," Bray commented
"I don't think it's any time
for amateurs to get in."
And Bray should know. He
has been in the auction yard
business here since 1945
when he bought half interest
in the Midway auction yard
from N. A. Mead. Mead had
founded it in 1944. When the
yard was first started, a big
sale would draw 25 head of
cattle. Now -the highest num
ber of cattle sold there are
1,368 a sale, according to
Bray. Quite a number of sales
have been held for over 1,000
head of cattle and the aver
age weekly sale features from
400 to 500 cattle, according
to Bray's estimates. These fig-
ures are on cattle alone, al
though the yard handles all
livestock. Midway also han
dies special sales on farm ma
chinery and on farms. It has
come a long way from the
time when it used to mix in
furniture sales with its live
stock
Bray started expanding the
yard from the time he bought
out his partner N. A. Mead in
1949. He estimates it now has
a capacity to handle approxi
mately 2,000 head of cattle at
a time. Approximately $138,-
000 worth of cattle have been
sold in one day. The gross
dollar volume was $2 million
for 1957, according to Bray's
figures.
One of Largest Yards
.This makes it one of the
largest auction yards in the
business. Midway is unique
since 95 per cent of the cattle
sold there are from Josephine
and Jackson counties.
One of the local veterinari
ans has stated emphatically
that Midway Auction yard
and the Southern Oregon
Auction yard at Phoenix are
the two cleanest and best-
managed yards in the state.
Bray has developed his
yard by vigorously pushing
his philosophy that the auc
tion method is the most prof
itable way to sell livestock
He and others of his trade or
profession must be convincing
salesmen because 10 times as
many livestock are being han
dled through auction than 15
years ago,
"The auction method has
two main advantages," Bray
emphasized. "You pool your
livestock and buyers at the
same time and open competi
tive bidding. Also, you dis
play cattle to everyone inter
ested. Through the auction-

Tomatoes Studied
By Radioactivity
Urbana, 111. flPl A pair of
researchers have put radio
activity to work in their
study of tomatoes.
J. P. McCollum, University
of Illinois agriculturist, and
John Skok, of the Argonne
Laboratory, recently conduct
ed tests to determine the ideal
time to pick tomatoes off the
vine.
A tomato is ripe when plant
sugar has stopped moving
into the fruit. The experi
menters were able to deter
mine through their tests just
when this movement stopped.
The men coated leaves of
the plants with a substance
made of sugar and radioactive
carbon. The radioactivity of
the carbon made it possible
for the researchers to trace
sugar movement through the
leaf, into the plant and into
the fruit.
They discovered that a to
mato is at its peak of ripe
ness and makes the best eat
ing "about six days after the
first appearance of color."
Resistant Barley
No Longer Good
Davis, Calif. (IP) A Va
riety of barley developed 10
yars ago to resist mildew
and other fungi no longer
has what it takes to ward off
these diseases, University of
California agriculture scien
tists report.
The scientists said it is not
that the barley variety
Atlas 46 has changed. New
types of fungi have infiltrat
ed where they had not been
found before.
The "resistant" kind of
barley came down with a
scald disease as early as 1953
and by 1956 the variety was
very susceptible to scald in
fection. The farm scientists now
have the job of finding a
variety of barley that can
resist the new fungi diseases
as well as the old.
Interstate Highway
Network Cost Soars
Washington (IP) The Com
merce Department has re
ported that the estimated cost
of completing the federal in
terstate highway network has
increased by $10 billion since
June, 1956.
In a report to Congress the
department fixed the revised
estimate for building the 40,-000-mile
road system at $37,

"Here, the feeder sales
have done a lot for promot

ifornia buyers bidding," the
auctioneer pointed out. "Dur

"Another advantage is most
of the cattle in the valley are

out. "The auctioneer brings
cattle from these small units
together for the buyers. The
auction yard gives all buyers

In Malheur county, the six

in Baker county covers ap
proximately 9565 acres acres
lying northwest of the town
of Baker.

Weather Poses
Feeding Question
Chicago m The National
Livestock Producer magazine
says "weather is the big
question mark" in the 1957
cattle feeding picture.
"Over-all it appears that
1957 is not likely to go down
in cattle feeding history as
one of the 'good' years," the
magazine reported. "But
neither will it be listed as
one of the really 'bad' years
although it may turn out
somewhat below average."
The magazine said weath
er's effect on pastures, water
supplies, feed prices and feed
ing conditions will leave a
natural imprint on the mar
ket.
What's more, the weath
er's effect will be felt indi
rectly in trends on rates and
times of marketing which
could dominate the market
situation through much of
the year.
"Choice steer prices so far
have averaged better than $1
above January levels of 1956
and there is a fair chance
they may continue above last
year's levels through the first
half of the year," the maga
zine pointed out.
"But there is a danger that
continued severe and wide
spread drought will reduce
the spring demand for re
placement and breeding stock
and force more of these cat
tle into slaughter channels
with resulting lower prices
for all beef."
The magazine said the so
lution lies in "more orderly
marketing of cattle now in
feed lots."

vaccination to the vaccina
tion chute. All the producer
has to do is bring them to
market and the yard person
nel will do the rest.
"We keep the yard ex
tremely clean and disinfect
all pens which have held con
taminated cattle," Bray said.
"A full-time veterinarian in
spects all the livestock. Dis
eased animals are so marked,
the condition is announced at
the time of sale. Or they are
sold subject to kill. This
means the producer receives
his money if government in
spectors pass them at the
slaughter ' houses," Bray ex
plained.
Young cattle are held un
der roofing and all cattle are
bedded in shavings and vac
cinated for shipping fever
Sorting, yarding and loading
are all free services, Bray
said. Charges made for such
special services as vaccina
tion (other than for brucel
losis which is provided by the
government) and feeding.
It takes a good crew to han
dle the cattle smoothly, speed
ily and efficiently as they are
brought in, shown and ship
ped out. Bray has four full
time men and 12-16 men,
mostly farmers, working on a
part-time basis during sale
days. In one day the yard
loaded over 1,000 head of cat
tle and Bray has recorded
selling 1,277 head of cattle in
four hours and 20 minutes.
All facilities are rigidly in
spected by Bray and by fed
eral and state veterinarians
and a sanitary inspector. The
scales are checked regularly
by an inspector from the
weights and measures depart
ment, and at Bray's expense,
by the scales company.
Scales Mark Card
When weighed, a card is
punched by the scales ma
chinery, eliminating human
error through misreading or
illegible writing, Bray ex
plained. This, however, is not
new. Such a set of scales have
long been in use at many
yards.
Questioned as to how bids
are made, Bray grinned.
"Each buyer has his own pe
culiar signal for making a
bid. One buyer here will look
directly at me and as long as
he looks right at me I know
he is still in there bidding.
When he looks away I know
he has stopped. A twitch of a
thumb may indicate a bid, or
a nod. Buyers sometimes
cross their arms and waggle
their thumbs or waggle their
thumbs from their hips. They
may even drape an arm
around their neighbor's shoul
ders and waggle a thumb
from behind the man's ear.
The natural movement in
the crowd makes it hard to
spot bids. Of course we know
who the constant customers
are and once we spot a bid
der we stay, with him. If we
mistake a nervous twitch we
always keep track of who is
bidding what so we can back
up to the next bidder. And
it's only the amateur bidders
who wave their arms.
"We have a man on each
side of the ring and the auc
tioneer calling off the bids.
When one man has a dead
spot he helps the other man
and catches any bidders that
may have been missed. Once
a final bid is recognized that's
all. It's a sale."
Bray guarantees the seller
a fair market price for his
livestock by placing the start
ing bid on each animal or a
pen of animals as they enter
the ring. If no buyer raises
this starting bid, then the sell
er is paid by the auction com
pany at the starting price.
Success of the livestock
yard centers on three people,
Bray said, the yardman, auc
t i o n e e r and bookkeeper.
Bray, as auctioneer and yard
owner, in chiefly responsible
for the operation. He must
know both human nature and
livestock. He must be able to
size up the livestock as they
are brought in and be able to
judge what prices they will
bring. He must know if the
buyers are financially respon
sible. Like any of his crew
who work the ring, he must
have a sharp eye and be on
his toes every minute.
Bray knows livestock since
he was raised on a large
ranch in California. There his
family ran both dairy and
beef stock.
Meat Inspectors
