third of these settlers still mills
their cows out In the weather, win
ter and summer, because they
haven't the money u> ouy barns
and outbuildings. It seems that the
settlers should be given a chance
to put liveable quarters and out
buildings on their farms before
they have to start paying con
struction.

do not believe that it la
a policy of the United States
government to keep a large pro
portion of these settlers living in
cellar houses and shacks that
wouldnt make good chicken houses.
"W e are, therefore, petitioning
congress to waive all construction
charges on the Owyhee project for
at least two years.’

DAIRY EXPANSION PROBABLE
Two encouraging developments at a recent
meeting of a Malheur county dairy planning
committee were recommendation for an in
crease in the number of cows in the county
and reorganization of the dairy herd improve
ment association.
One o f the best dairy sections in the west
can well afford to develop the industry for
several reasons. Dairying fits into a well-round
ed farm program by providing needed fertil
izer for the crops and furnishing a year-around
cash income for the fanner. Producers who are
now receiving 75 cents for their butterfat re
member when they received less than 20 cents
per pound and state that they still “ made a
living” at that figure. Although no one in a
dairy section wants the producer to sell their
butterfat at such a low figure, it is a fact that
dairying is one of the most and perhaps the
most dependable source of income available
to the farmer.
An increase in the cow population o f the
county is almost certain to bring one or more
industrial plants to this section. That should
provide a better market for local dairy con
cerns.
O f course, if the dairy industry is to pros
per as it should the fanners must produce the
best possible milk and cream. The activities
o f a dairy herd improvement association
most certainly would improve the quality
and increase the amount o f milk produced.
