situation, for it ba* failed to live up to
its agreement to start building the
road on the Bayoccan property that
is to connect with the county road,
and pay its taxes, which it should
have done in good faith. This is prob­
ably why the county court have delay­
ed the completion of the road, but it
is hardly right to punish the Individ­
ual property owners for the sins and
short comings of the Potter Realty
Co. Added to this was the repeated
delay in building the road to Bav-
ocean. There is just two things for
the county to do. Complete the road
as soon as possible or reduce the
taxes in Bayoccan one-half.. We are
quite aware that the County Court
had to divert as much money as pos­
sible in road district No. 1 to meet the
county's part of the expense of the
five miles of hard surface road being
built bv the St te Highway Com­
mission. owing to the technic slity in
the county road bond petition, and
that it took a whole lot of figuring
and cul.ing down work in other part
of the district, to meet this ex,ra *x"

some assurance, if the bond-in«Mure

THE BUTTER AND CHEESE
SITUATION.
------ o——
The above lines art quoted front the
Black and White record and were us­
ed as headline to tne following arti­
cle.
To The Editor:
“The total holdings of butter in 332
storage houses reporting show an in­
crease for October I over September
> of 3,354,098 pounds, according to a
compilation made by the United Stat­
es Food Administration. However,
these houses show a loss of 3,064,697
pounds, as compared with the same
date in 1916, or about three per cent.
“The exports for butter for July and
August this year decreased 2,437,555
pounds as compared with the same I
month in 1916. The exports of cheese,
however increased 3,224,694 pounds in
these months.
“The average wholesale price of
butter for September in the United
States was 43.48 cents per pound,
while the average retail price was 50
cents. The regulated wholesale price
in England was 53.76 cents per pound.
“The average wholesale price of
cheese in the United States during
September was 25.78 cents per pound,
and the average retail price 36.1 cents.
In England the regulated wholesale
price was 38 cents per pound.”
In the above article there is much
food for thought, this is especially so
to the dairymen who are depending
on their income solely from the
cheese industry. You will note that
while the butter shipments decreased;
the export of cheese increased, this of
course can no doubt be attributed to
the meat supply greatly diminishing
in Europe and cheese being substitut­
ed—“note that in England the regu­
lated wholesale price was 38 cents per
pound” while in the United States the
wholesale price was 25.78 for Septem­
ber, and the retail price 36.1 cents per
pound.
Why should there be such a wide
difference in wholesale and retail
price of cheese as compared to but­
ter? Then again, why should a profit
of 10.23 cents per pound be charged
for the price of cheese between the
wholesaler and consumer?
Mr. Kuppcnbender's article in a
recent issue of the Headlight has
touched the right chord, which should
meet with an immediate and ready re­
sponse from the cheese producers—
the dairymen and factory directors of
every dairy and factory in Tillamook
County—by getting action on this
business direct from the factory to
consumer, thus saving the middle­
men’s profits as well as increasing
the earning thereby to those that pro­
duce the article, this, it scctns to. me
could be accomplished by a judicious
advertising campaign for Tillamook
cheese. Get your pencil to work and
see wha. this would mean to . I illa-
tnook County in a very short time.

Kidney Pills. They are strongly re­
commended by McMinnville people.
Arthur Branson, 339 B Street., No.
McMinnville. Ore., says: "About six
or eight years ago, I had rheumatic
pains in my back and legs so bad that
I wasn't able to do my work. At
times, it was all I could do to get
around. Sharp, shooting pains caught
me in the small of my back and for a
minute I could hardly move. When I
got down to do anything it was al! I
could do to straighten up as my back
felt so weak and stiff. After I had
taken six or eight boxes of Doan’s
Kidney Pills I was cured. Since then
1 haven’t had any rheumatic pains
and my kidneys have been as strong
as ever.”
