Cheese is moving off satisfactorily
at 24 cents Tillamook for triplets and
25 cents for loaf, reports Secretary
Haberlach of the creamery association.
All of the May cheese has been sold
and will be shipped as it has cured
sufficiently.
Checks for April milk will be out
June 7 unless there are too many in­
terruptions for part payments. But­
ter fat prices will range close to 56
cents in the larger factories close to
Tillamook where the making charges
are not over 4 cents."
Ninety percent of the cheese made
now is going to California, with Se­
attle taking a fair quantity. Other
than cheese for storage purposes, the
market is reported as being very
slow! Wisconsin remains at 17 1-4
cents for daisies and 17 3-4 cents for
longhorns, as against 23 cents for
daisies and 23 1-2 cents for longhorns
at this time last year.
Milk receipts continue very heavy,
production for the third week in May
having been 3310 boxes triplets and
368 boxes loaf. This is more cheese
than Tillamook has made in one week
before and is equivalent to 242,820
pounds of cheese for the week, or 34,-
700 pounds a day.

Memories
The death of Fred L. Sappington
which occurred at the family home
at Twin Rocks Sunday afternoon was
a shock to the community as he was
apparently enjoying good health, The
family had eaten dinner and Mr. and
Mrs. Sappington were alone in the
house when he decided to go out for
awhile. He arose and went in an ad­
joining room for his coat. Mrs. Sap­
pington heard a scuffling noise and
called to him. Receiving no answer
she went in to find him sitting on the
edge of a bed clasping his head. She
spoke to him but his reply was unin­
telligible, and he died within a few
minutes.
Fred Laughlin Sappington was born
December 21, 1866 in Y'amhill county.
He died May 25, 1924 at Twin Rocks.
On the 22nd o June 1890, he was
married to Carrie A. Blackburn. They
came to Tillamook county in 1895
where they have since made their
home. Two children, Horace Lee and
Veda Victoria with their mother, sur­
vive him. Funeral services were held
Tuesday at 1:30 under the auspices
of the Masonic lodge.
Mr. Sappington was well known in
the county having been active in pub­
lic life. He was county surveyor
from 1903 to 1909.

LOSES TO TILLAMOOK
in regard to rebuilding the saw mill,
which was destroyed by fire a month
ago at Bay City
Having bought
some of the saw mill at Hobsonville,
this will be used in rebuilding. It
was planned at first to have the new
saw mill operated by electricity, but
it seems that other arrangements
were made when O. H. Schwerdtman
came in from Portland. Steam will
be the main power, although some
electricity will be used, and with the
boilers little damaged by the fire, it
is thought operations will commence
much sooner, as it would have taken
some time to obtain electric motors
from the east.
