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.

Reece Ave., the Rev. Carl
Johnson, Jr., pastor, has an
nounced.
Benintendi and his wife Linda
will be active in Bible school
work, evangelism, and establis
hing churches during their first
term of missionary service.
Benintendi is the son of As
semblies of God missionaries,
the Rev. and Mrs. Garland E.
Benintendi, presently serving in
Taiwan.
He was raised and
educated in Taiwan and speaks
Chinese fluently.
He says,
“As I have been exposed to
foreign culture, language, and
peoples since childhood, God has
impressed me that missionary
service is the avenue I should
take as a life’s work.”
Of the land to which he soon
will return, Benintendi says,
“The island of Taiwan presents
a tremendous missionary chal
lenge. Only one percent of the
12 million people are Christ
ians.”
Both Mr. and Mrs. Benintendi

they
were

Mrs. Turner was born on
a farm in north central Nebr
aska in 1886. She has never
had any formal art training
but cannot remember when she
did not want to paint.
The artist began painting at
the age of sixty. She sold her
fourth painting to the hospital
in Ainsworth, Nebraska, and it
is still hanging in the lobby
today.
Mrs. Turner paints
only as a hobby and an enjoy
able pastime.
The paintings
may be viewed during regular
library hours.
