of tho auditors.
"Why not?" said Smith. "Lower
land cost would giro Klamath coun
ty 23 per cent advantage In tho
cost of production. Tbo altltudo
and climatic conditions assure the
highest grado of dairy product.
Klamath county. In dairying, has
ono striking advantugo over tho
San Joaquin valley thn possibility
J nf producing hero tho finest frnda
of checso, of a quality that will
keep Indefinitely, which Is some
thing that cannot bo produced In
tho San Joaquin valley."
He pointed out that Wisconsin
and Minnesota nro leaders of tho
national dairying Industry, yot
Klamath county has n shorter win
ter season, nnd tho winters nro
milder hero.
Danger of glutting the market
was discounted by tho agricultur
ist hy instances from moro than
half a century of practical exper
ience. "You can always soli a high clas.
Vroduct," ho said. "Tlio consumer
will alway buy, nnd pay a premi
um for tho. privilege of buying tho
ahfOlutcly A-l grndo."
Smith detailed experiences of his
own as an organizer of creamery
Industries, showing that tho pri
mary need was a pure product.
Having established tho quality of
tho product, ho showed that thn
marketing would tnko care of Itself.
Tho demand for the best of any
commodity, ho declared, always ex
ceeds the supply.
Production of high grado dairy
products, ho pointed out, demands
in tho first plaro butter and checso
makers who Insist upon puro cream
und milk, nnd who aro able to edu
cate the dairyman to tho necessity
)f supplying tho best of raw ma
terials. The better prico that can
be offerod for milk and cream of
tho host quality, ho said, makes this
education easy.
Smith will speak in Merrill this
aftornoon. Ho will visit the Horse
fly and Langoll valley .districts
Thursday and will speak In Bo
nanza. Ho will leave hero for
Portland Friday.
Despite thn belief cxprossed In
many qunrtors that (ho timber work
er' strike would be settled without
delay, llttta progress ha been re
ported toward that end and It la not
certain whether Mayor W. 8. Wiley
will call upon the state board of con
ciliation. Representatives of the Fed
eral board of conciliation are here
making an Investljatlon, bit have
not made public their opinions of
tho situation or their Intontlons.
The state law provides that In a
situation such s that exIstlaK kern
elthor party to the controversy. a
well as city or county officials, may
call upon tho state board who shall
at once respond. Should the board
make an Investigation, It would hold
a public hearing and all document
bearing on the case wonld be placed
on record with the county ckrk.
Either side Is privileged to present Its
sldo of tho case In writing. In which
caso an agreement must be Incorpor
ated to abldo by the findings of the
board.
The telegrams between the mayor
and the state board, made pahllc by
wnillam F. Woodward, clubman
were a follews:

of the public welfare I would respect
fully ask that your board lend Its
conciliatory powers In Iho adjustment
of tbo matter and that you come to

Chairman Woodward stated that
ho had written Mayor Wiley bnt that
as yet no reply had been received.
"The board necessarily awaits advices
from Mayor Wiley bofore further ac

Mayor Wiley said ho contemplated
no furthom action until It becamo

Did you ever wish for your wife
to die? Vavasour Jones did and
lived to rue tho day. "lsh Honey
moon," a one-act play which will be
given by tho Juniors of the high
school on March 1? and 18, tells his
dilemma and how It was solved. The
theme of tho play Is the old Wfelsh
superstition that If yon go to 'the
church yard on Hallow'een night nd
see tbo spirit of one you know, you
can count on his death before the
year Is out. Tbo year Is almost out.
for Katherlne, the wlfa pi Vavasor
Jones, and the terror and surprises of
the last hour furnish excellent op
portunities for clever acting.
Tho setting of the play ts the living
room of n Welsh cottage, aid artis

furnish tho desired atmosphere. Spec

loading parts will be played by James'
Manning and Mildred Lewis, sup

"Welsh Honeymoon" Is taken from

Jeanotte Marks, who has spent many
years in travel among the obecuro
