N. Shaw, county veterinarian, this week, brings out the following points of interest to the dairymen of this county: In the past few years, a great ma­ ny articles dealing with the subject of mineral for stock have appeared in leading farm papers of the nation, and dairymen have been led to be­ lieve that the question of mineral for their stock is of some importance. There can be no question as to the importance of mineral as far as the dairy cattle of this county are con­ cerned, because of the investigations carried on by some*of the investiga­ ted* at our experiment stations, dis- » closing the need of the addition of a mineral to the ration of dairy cows tn certain parts of the country. Com­ mercial concerns have put on the mar­ ket several products which are sup­ posed to meet the needs of cattle receiving a mineral deficiency in their diet. Most of these products are fair­ ly successful in their purpose, but are rather expensive. The question arises as to whether or not the cows of Tillamook county really need a mineral supplement. It is the opin­ ion of the county veterinarian that the cows of Tillamook county would have fewer ailments, and would give a greater quantity of milk, if a min­ eral of the right kind could be added to their rations. It is a known fact that the soils of this county are quite acid. This acidity is due to a lack of mineral. If the mineral is not present in the soil, it cannot be pres­ ent in the plant life. Some of our hays are especially high in the es­ sential minerals, especially alfalfa and clover. Some of our cows in this county have little opportunity to eat alfalfa and clover hay, and depend upon the native hay entirely. It has been proven and is an oft quoted fact that animals will die more quickly on a mineral diet than they will if not fed at all. Some of the conditions which are ti ought to be indications this of a lack of mineral, so far county is concerned, are: First, paralysis. A great many dairy cows become paralyzed before, is or shortly after calving. This thought to be due to the robbing of the cow's own tissues of the minerals nece.-sary for the structure of the new individual.. Then again, we find high producing cows who become lame and stiff without any apparent cause. The use of a mineral supplement is sup­ posed to overcome a great many dis­ ease« that the diary cow suffers from. The word “supposed” is used, because it has not been definitely proven that the above statement is a fact. An effort has been made to determ­ ine if possible, just what mineral would be most practical for the cows of Tillamook county. Letters were written to Dr. E. B. Forbes, director of the institute of Animal Nutrition, (Continued on page 2, column 2) BOXING FANS CHOOSE MANN MATCHMAKER II 8.

I I Pictures Will Assist Dairymen Will Apparatila LOGGER ROBS FRIEND; IS FINED BY COURT Alfred Newlin, who quit a job at one of the sawmills last Saturday, oc­ cupied a room Saturday night with a fellow logger named Mike Kanary. Unlike the bird for which he «as named, Kanary was not up to meet the sun, with a song in his bill, but slept sound and late. Newlin, how­ ever, was up early and frisked hia companion's pocket taking $10 in cur­ rency. He did not pause to say good bye to his room mate, but quietly hit the highway for the outside. In the meantime Kanary awoke, but instead of singing blithely, he turned, he turned his pockets wrong side out and swore, and then hunted up the sheriff who overtook Newlin at Dolph. The sheriff was accompanied by the bereft Kanary, who identified the thief. As they came up with Newlin, the lat­ ter handed the $16 bill to Kanary, with the remark: “There’s your mon­ ey, and I'm done with you.’ A fight seemed imminent, but the sheriff in­ terfered and took Newlin into custody On Monday, Newlin pleaded guilty to petit larceny and was fined $25 by the justice of the peace and in lieu of the required money, he is now enjoy­ ing a life of lonely loafing in the county jail.

The petitions were tender­ ed by Sundquiat A Norberg nad by J’. M. Weiss A Son, both firms operating in the vicinity of Hemlock. Permis­ sion was granted to Weiss A Son to erect loading docks in front of Hin­ er’s property, between Stillwell ave­ nue and First Avenue east on First street; permission was also granted Sundquist A Norberg and A. M. Mat­ lock for joint occupancy of First st. between Stillwell avenue and First Avenue west, in front of property owned by the Southern Pacific com­ pany and Henry Wolfe. It was under­ stood by all concerned that should the city at any time want possession, the sawmill men were to vacate the docks immediately. The granting of the dockage accommodation will solve a problem which has been bothering outside sawmill firms for some time, These mills are all operated to their full capacity, and have added quite a payroll to the county.
