Why deeds should be recorded, is ques-
ton asked us quite frequently. Those who
don't know will save trouble by observing
the following reasons why they should be re-
corded: First. because teed which is not
recorded within six months after the execu
tion of the same, shall be adiudged fraudu
lent against any subsequent purchaser for
valuable consideration. Second, because
where two deeds are made of different dates
from the same grantor to different persons,
neither of which is recorded within six
months, that which is first recorded will take
priority. Third. because purchasers who
neglect to place their deeds upon record as
prescribed by law, incur risk of former
owners giving liens upon the same. Fourth,
because moneyed men will not make any
loans TO parties whose deeds are not record
cd. Fifth, because If BY accident deed
should be destroyed or lost, it would be very
expensive to get another. Sixth, because to
preserve chain of title, it 10 requisite to
have all the deeds recorded. The matter ia
Of such vital Importance that it should be
observed carefully by every property owner.

DAIRY MEETING AT SALEM.

A special meeting of the Oregon
State Dairymen's Association will be
held at Salem, Saturday, Aug. 5th,
at 10 q. m.
The principal topics for discussion at
this meeting will be the feasibility of
establishing dairy exchange for Ore
gon and how to stop the importation of
butter into Oregon. These are both
topics which need agitation. To GER
tain extent they blend into each other.
The need of united efforts on business
basis among the progressive dairymen
OF this state is apparent to all who
have studied the situation.
1t might well be said that 1t is a dis
grace to Oregon TO import so large a
share OF the butter consumed in the
state. That 1t does so Is a great detri-
ment TO its prosperity. To the people
Of Salem and vicinity this question has
an especial interest from the fact that
the prosperity and growth of the
city and adjacent country can only be
assured by a subdivision of the large
farms into small ones. Under the old
system II takes several acres to support
q COW and the amount received for her
butter is not enough to pay for ber
keeping. Under proper methods 1t is
found both possible and profitable to
keep COW to an acre In Oregon and
the adoption of better methods in
dairying will, In conjunction with fruit
growing and other forms of intensive
farming, solve the problem of how to
support ton families In comfort where
one now has hard struggle to get
along.
On this line II Is expected that Mr..
Il. Schulmerich, of Hillsboro, will tell
Chow we keep COW to the acre Ia
Washington county"
II Is hoped that every person inter
ested In the subject of dairying who
can attend this meeting will do 30. The
dairymen OF Oregon should not allow
the fruit growers Of the state TO leave
them too far In the rear In the matter
Of supporting state orgaizatlon.
