This shows a gain of 4,452,933 lbs., or about seven and one half per cent. 6,722,893 lbs. of cheese were manufactured. $1,550,331.18 was realized from the sale of cheese. 23.06 cents was the average price realized per lb. cheese. 2,481,252 lbs. of butterfat in milk. Average test, 4.13 per cent. Average yield per 100 lbs. milk, 11.21 lba. An average of 2.71 lbs. of cheese per lb. butterfat. 63,811 lbs. of butterfat sold in whey cream. >24,005.58 was realized from sale of whey cream. 6,100 lbs. butter manufactured and sold for $2,655.20. $1,576,991.96 was total realized from sales of dairy products by as sociation. 94,145 boxes of cheese produced. Total making charges, $189,- 588.96. Total expenses, $151,627.63. In addition to selling, inspecting and grading cheese .the association during the year engaged in the grain and hay business. The asso ciation itself does not own any stock In th'e various cheese factor ies. but does own the building known as the Farmers’ Warehouse. Otherwise its resources consist of its office, stock of feeds and grains, and other liquid assets. During the year, prices of cheese have been held considerably above any other markets. Also, large quantities of cheese were placed in storage front time to time, a total of 28,000 cases having been stored at various times. I have tried to hold the market at from 5c to 8c over Wisconsin. Our average price will be between 6c and 7c over Wiscon sin. We have been enabled to do this largely upon quality of our cheese, advertising and using our best judgment in so holding our cheese that best results were obtain able. It just happened that no cheese was placed in storage until the lowest price or market was reached. Every car We placed in storage showed a profit to the var ious factories. Large sums have been turned over to the various factories, over and above the market price prevailing at date of shipment. California continues to be our best market, between 65 and 66 per cent of our cheese being shipped to that State. All chee.te placed in storage has been disp ved of, and wc are now short I 000 rtses of having enough cheese to fill orders. It has not been thought wise, however, to raise our asking prices, and tnis for vatioui ret1 sens We have been having the local feed mill take care of our feed busi ness in that we have been using Its warehouse and it has been doing cus tom work for us. At this time we have fairly large contract out-stand- in for mill feeds, grain and hay and at this time all could be closed out at a good margin of profit. How ever, this association did not go into the feed business with the idea of any large profit, so we shall contin ue to sell at moderate margin over costs. The attendance of the Directors continues good, the average atten dance during the year 21 per meet ing. We have been operating the office with a minimum of expense, less than three persons being employed as an average during the season. This includes what assistance we need to run the feed business. I have thought, however, that It would be profitable for me to put in a little more time with the buyers. The past year both Mr. Claussen and I made a trip to Los Angeles and San Francisco in the interest of the as sociation, otherwise a few trips to Portland were all the time devoted to the sales end besides what was transacted by telephone, telegraph, correspondence and the brokers. The matter of Wisconsin competi tion is continually before us, and it has seemed that it would be a good idea to have a better acquaintance with some of the larger Wisconsin dealers. A personal visit to that State could not fail to bring about a closer working acquaintance, and this is submitted to you for your consideration and attention.

This brings the per cent of seconds pro duced. compared to the total produc tion, down to 00423. This is un doubtedly a better showing than a similar amount of cheese produced anywhere. Needfess to state it will be nec essary to still better the quality of milk delivered at the factories if the present spread of cheese pi ices over other markets is to be maintained. To do this it will be necessary to el iminate the present brand from all cheese made from three day old milk. That would force a number of factories to operate every other day. While the above might appear to operate against the smaller factor ies. yet the total amount lost to the smaller factories if no brand was placed on the three day milk cheese would probably not exced three to four thousand dollars. The stale cheese hurts our reputation many times that amount . Onlv about one year ago we eliminated all four dav milk and the present calls for still closer work along the above lines. The relations between the office, ditectors. stockholders and patrons have been pleasant all along the line Many people have used the offices for work relating to dairying, but this has in no way interfered with our work. The offices afford a fine place for meetings of the test ing associations, water companies, 1 breeding associations, etc. During the year the capital stock of the association has been increas ed to $25,000.00. with $15,000 00 paid in It 1« probable that the bal ance will be needed during the summer months to take care of stor- I age charges, freight on cheese in • storage etc. I think that when the ! dairymen generally understand the scope of the work now carried on by this association, they will readily see the needs of more adequate fin ancing. However. we will have no trouble obtaining the needed finance if we keep away from wild cat schemes.
