DALLAS CHEESE FACTORY.

Dallas needs that cheese factory
the farmers of the surrounding coun-
try need it, and Mr.. Robinson is
anxious to come here and establish it.
Not one cent in the way of a subsidy
or bonus is asked Of the merchants,
all of whom would profit greatly by
the development of the dairy business
in Polk county. All that is asked of
the business men is that they shall
use their influence with their farmer
friends in inducing the latter to agree
to furnish the milk of $50 COWS to a
cheese factory to be located in Dallas,
the price to be paid for butter-fat to be
the top market price at all times. Mr..
Robinson does not ask the farmers to
enter into any hard and fast contract
binding themselves to furnish milk to
him, and to him alone, for a given
period Of time. All that he asks is
that they give MIN reasonable assur-
ance that the milk OF $50 COWS can be
secured, and the factory will come If
the farmer does not find that he can
realize more money from the sale of
his milk at home than he can by ship
ping it to Portland, or some other
market, he will be left free to sell
where he pleases. This is Mr.. Robin
sons whole proposition in a nutshell,
and it is fair one.
Mr. Robinson is a man of lifelong
experience in cheese manufacturing
and he understands the business In
its every detail He operates one
factory in Tillamook county, and two
in Coos county, and sells cheese in all
the principal markets in the country.
He wants to come to Dallas because
his experienced eye tells him that the
surrounding country is peculiarly
adapted to dairying. He says he is
willing to begin operations with the
daily milk product Of $50 cows, for the
reason that inside Of twelve months
he will be able to obtain the milk OF
500 COWS if he needs it.
1t is to be hoped that every merchant
and farmer will encourage the pro-
posed industry. 1t would certainly be
no difficult matter to secure the assur-
ance of the milk of $50 cows within a
radius Of five or six miles from Dallas.
There are over one hundred families
on each Of the two rural routes lead
ing out Of Dallas, and the great hill
country back of us is scarcely touched
by these routes. Then there is the
rich farming country to the east and !
north of town, and the fertile valley |
Of the Luckiamute tapped by the
Dallas and Falls City railroad-all
ideal stock country, and all tributary
to Dallas.
1t is to be hoped that the people of
Dallas will not let this matter rest
until the required number of COWS is
secured and the cheese factory is
added to the towns already long list
of manufacturing industries. Mer-
'hants, talk it up with your farmer
and get them to put down
heir names for a given number Of
lows. Ask the farmers to talk it
among themselves, and invite them to
investigate the proposition to their
'wn satisfaction. A determinedieffort
will secure the factory, and the result
will be worth all the work it will cost
o secure it.

The communication from the pen of
w. V. Fuller in another column in
this paper is worth the careful perusal
of every man interested in the subject
OF timber land. Mr.. Fuller clearly
points out the wrong that would be
perpetrated upon the poor man by the
passage Of the proposed act OF Con-
gress providing for the sale Of public
land at auction, and also calls atten-
tion to existing evils. Mr. Fuller has
made a close study of the timber
business, and his opinions are those
of man who knows what he is talk
ing about.

The Independence & Monmouth
Railway Company is showing com
mendable enterprise in providing new
rolling stock for it's road. Another
large engine and a combination pas.
senger and baggage coach have been
purchased, and the small engines and
motor cars will soon be discarded.
A change in the time schedule, where
by the travelling public will be greatly
benefited, will be announced in the
near future. Manager Hirschberg is
sparing no expense to give the people
better service, and his efforts will
be duly appreciated.

The next Legislature should pass a
non-compact law, forbidding the
hoard of fire insurance underwriters
operating in Oregon. The board is a
monopolistic, arbitrary affair, with
no regard for its promises, as has
been shown in connection with the
business Of Albany.-Albany Demo-
Crat.
The business men Of Portland asked
such law from the last Legislature,
but were turned down fiat, 1t remains
to be seen whether the next legislative
body will be less under the domination
of corporation influence. The pro
posed insurance law is one Of Oregon's
great needs.

Senator Fulton is vigorously oppos-

is inadequate for the proper develop
