Niles Oregon Dairy Month, 1971 It was about 135 years ago that the first dairy cows were brought into Oregon and it was about 80 years ago that the dairy industry began to play an important role in the overall agricultural development of the state. Today there are more than 3,200 dairymen in Oregon and during the annual June Dairy Month promotions, all of them are cognizant of the heritage and the traditions of their in dustry. Malheur County is the second largest producer of dairy products in Oregon, with about $2,500,000 worth produced an nually. Statewide, in 1970 Oregon dairy farmers cash receipts from the sale of milk and cream amounted to $56,246,000. The history of dairying in America is older than the history of the United States as a country. The first dairy cows came to Jamestown in the Virginia Colony in 1611 and helped end a terrifying period of starvation. The famed Boston Commons was once a cow pasture. When settlers moved westward across the country, nearly every covered wagon was accompanied by a cow--for the cow represented a mobile food factory for milk, cheese and butter and, in many cases, fresh meat. It was the early settlers who brought dairy cows with them over the Oregon trail to the Willamette Valley, which has become the center of dairying in Oregon because of remarkably favorable weather and soil conditions. Legislation for the industry in Oregon was initiated in 1893 when the first sanitary regulations were adopted. In 1899, the Legislature provided for the first dairy and food commission. Further laws have been adopted by succeeding Legislatures setting powers and restrictions relating to the industry within the Department of Agriculture. Other laws have been adopted to insure pure and wholesome milk and milk products. In Oregon, dairy cows are located in every county and nearly every community. There are about 111,000 dairy cows in the state and they produce nearly one billion pounds of fluid milk— or about 200 million quarts. In fact, if you were to stack back-to-back around the 45th parallel--the one which runs through Oregon near Salem —standard one-quart milk containers filled with Oregon milk, the line would run completely around the earth--with some left over. Of this milk, 55 per cent is sold as bottled milk. The rest is used to make butter, cheese, cottage cheese and ice cream. Only a small amount is used at home on the farm. The farm gate value of the industry is $54 million. To handle the multimillion dollar industry there are more than 60 plants that pasteurize and carton milk as well as convert it to other products. Today, the dairy business in Oregon is a completely modern and highly technical industry. Each year fewer cows produce more milk. Due to new feeding andbreeding techniques, today’s sleek dairy herds hardly resemble pioneer cattle. From the standpoint of production, processing and distri bution, the dairy industry in Oregon today is as modern and highly technical as any other American industry. Dairymen like to think their industry is here to stay, still filling a vital segment in the state’s economy. After 135 years, who can argue about that. and she was escorted and given the honor of her station. Members observed Flag Day with Color Bearer Rose Toombs escorted by Blanche Weeks, Leona Reeves, Harriet Warren, Beulah Gann and Merle John son.
