IN HANDS OF GOVERNOR

Sacramento, Cal, March 5.--lf the
changes in the organization of the
state railroad commission which have

committee, are endorsed by both
houses of the legislature and ratified

SALEM AS A
JOBBING CENTER

Besides large wooden mills. saw
mills, Touring mills and prune pack
ing houses, Salem has a jobbing trade
In many lines that is growing and
reaching out to all parts of the state.
This has long been the center of the
hop industry, and cascara bark oper-
'ations here occupy several ware
houses. Beer shipments are made
by the carload to California, and the
fruit and grocery trade are well rep
resented. Cigar manufacturing and
wholesaling have been carried on for
years, as has the manufacture Of con-
fectionery and Ice cream. Butter
manufacturing is carried on in two
creameries. and the products of our
greenhouses have become famous at
Portland and on Puget Sound. The
city of Boise, Idaho is very proud OF

less, innocent and naive creature of
early days. The State Of Pennsvl-
vania is going to spend $4,000 yearly
to teach her to milk the cows and
make butter on the improved modern
lines.
The purpose of this legislation in.
troduced by Representative E. E.
Jones of Susquehanna is two-fold.
First, 1t is felt that the quality of
dairy products can be much i'm
proved by an understanding of the
scientific way to do things and the
health of the state safeguarded by the
Introduction of new methods of sani.
tation. Next, the application of these
methods should also add to the profit
of dairy products, for ignorance now
results in much waste and curtailment
of profits.

keeps the cows hide free from loose
hairs and foreign matter.
In fact, the hide of the cow is even
kept clipped toward the side of the
mixer SO as to be absolutely certain
that nothing can fall into the milk
Twice day the COW is also sponged,
especial attention being given to the
udder.
The fair milkmaid will be taught
that her hands can never be kept too
clean while taking the milk from it's
cow giver. She must wash them in
warm water before beginning and re-
peat the operation after emptying
each bucket Of milk.
These are some Of the high spots
in the remarkable program by which
an effort Is being made to educate the
farmer as to his vital duty to safe.
guard his milk supply.
OF course, large part Of the result
will depend on the amount of moral
suasion that can be brought to bear,
for many of the suggestions made are
expensive and can hardly be put into
execution without loss by those who
depend on the popular priced market
for the returns.
But one Of the points adopted is
sure to result in gain
Ten thousand dollars yearly to be
invested by the state in guarding the
milk supply ought to yield it's profits
in an improved public health.

health ana contaminate the milk.
Back Of the long line Of cows as they
stand in the neat, metal wided stalls
ought to be groove into which dirt
is continually swept and taken away.
In front of the stall is another groove
in the cement floor, through which at
regular intervals runs a stream OF
pure we'll water, till each COW has had
enough, and then it is shut of.
The food ought to be weighed out
to each COW, and not one ounce more
given than the attendant decides is
needful, for a COW needs only to be
fat and contented looking, and this
is not likely to be the case if over
feeding is permitted.
Care in Feeding.
The right kind of material for food
will also be explained in detail by
this itinerant course of lectures on
COW knowledge. Grains, corn sileage,
clover and alfalfa hay are the stuffs
that insure a good flavor to the milk.
The proper portions will be explained
in detail.
Sometimes it may become neces-
sary to decrease a cows allowance OF
one of the ingredients few ounces
to reduce the production Of butter fat
or to add something to increase the
supply of milk.
In such manner as this virtually
everything connected with the COW
and it's production of milk can be
regulated along the lines which the
instructors will lay down.
OF course, the COW has to be allowed
a certain amount of exercise in the
open fields, perhaps on average of
three or four hours a day, but here
again the instructor will be to the
fore again with good advice, for he
will tell the dairymaid how to be sure
there is no deleterious substance
growing there, such as garlic.
Only one COW needs to eat garlic to
affect the entire milking, and they
are so partial to it, that only eternal
vigilance can prevent the indulgence.
In the ideal dairy shavings will be
used as bedding. They do not fill the
air with germ-laden dust. For the
same reason all hay before being fed
to the COW is wet down with hose,
thus preventing the dissemination Of
the hay bacilli, which In dry hay fills
the atmosphere and is either inhaled
by the COW or flies directly into the
the milk.
Grains are kept in compartment
separate from the barn, thus prevent
ing the dangers of their flavors from
getting into the milk, and all crevices
which might become lurking places
for dust, thus aiding in the infection
of the herd from a tuberculosis COW
