HIGH MARK TS.

The Oregon market for dairy pro-
duets is one of the highest in the
United States. Butter prices in
Portland range from 3 to 6 cents
higher than butter prices in Chicago,
New York and other eastern markets.
The Portland price is also usually
somewhat i'll advance of the San
Francisco market. The state is we'll
supplied with creameries, cheese
factories and condensing estab
ments, so that the milk producer has
little trouble in finding ready sale
for his product Practically all milk
and cream sold to factories of the
various classes is sold on butterfat
basis. Cheese factories and cOndens-
ing establishments are able to pay
higher price for the fat than the
creameries are, but there is a ques-
ton in the minds of most milk pro-
ducers as to whether the higher price
compensates for the loss of the skim
milk for feeding purposes.
Just at present there are very few
dairy COWS in the state for sale. In
fact, some few carloads Of Middle
West states grade COWS have been
recently brought to the state. The
present and prospective demand for
dairy cows makes the rearing of
dairy 'heifers a very profitable line Of
animal breeding at the present time.
SKILLED MEN WANTED.
Perhaps the greatest drawback to
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-02-01

dairying in Oregon at the present
time the difficulty in securing suit
able help. Many owners of large
tracts of land would engage IN dairy
ing if they could secure the right sort
of help, managers as we'll as mixers.
And many land owners who are in
the work would increase their herds
quite materially could they be assur-
ed of getting satisfactory help. There
is abundant opportunity for remuner-
alive employment for the man skilled
in dairy herd management. Plenty
of men seem to be available for
factory work, however. Many Middle
West and eastern butter and cheese
makers have apparently followed
Horace Greeley's advice "Go West,
young man.
Abundant opportunity is afforded
the man of small means to get started
in dairying for himself.

at a profit or not? In fact l want all
the information possible on this sub
iect and trust that you will be able
to give me the desired information
or If possible give me the address of
people that are in the business OF
buying the casein after being put in
the commercial form. e. ID. 5.
Ferndale, Wash.
Answer: Normal milk contains on
the average 81 per cent of this sub
stance and when the fat is separated
from the milk there will be a slight
increase in per cent until it reaches
almost per cent. Whey does not
contain any casein. In the process
OF cheese making the rennet coagu-
lates this casein and it is made into
cheese. leaving nothing but sugar
and albumen in the whey.
There are few casein factories In
this country that are making large
quantities of casein from skimmilk to
be used for various purposes. At the
price that exists in this state for
skimmilk I do not consider it profit
able to separate the casein. In fact
the feeding value when fed to hogs
or calves is greater than could be
obtained by it's manufacture into
casein.

making it and will probably be able

houses handling it.
Question:: Will you please tell me
what ration to feed with alfalaf and
oat hay? | expect to feed some kale.
What change il any should | make in
my other feeds? f. b. Sherlock,
Wash.
Answer: With alfalfa and oat hay
[ suggest feeding as a grain ration,
ground wheat or barley five parts,
bran one part, soy bean meal one
part and feed one part of the mixture
daily to every four pounds of milk
that the COW produces. Roots may
be fed to advantage with this ration.
When kale is fed to milk COWS it will
not be necessary to feed as much of
the highly protein feeds, such as soy
bean meal or proteina.

ditions in that state, saying in part:
1t has been estimated that about
175, 900 dairy COWS are owned in the
state of Oregon. We are inclined to
believe that this figure is rather high,
but in the absence of definite data
on the subject we assume it to be
correct. The average annual milk
production of these COWS will not ex-
ceed 400 pounds, or approximately
2, 900 quarts. The total amount of
milk produced in the state during
the year 1911 therefore, probably did
not exceed $50, 600, 900 quarts. There
were approximately 800, 600 people in
the state during 1911 and if we as
sumo that there was an average of
five to each family, and that each
family used one quart of milk daily,
the total consumption of milk alone
for the year would amount to SO, 400,
900 quarts, or about II per cent of
the total production. If we allow an
average market value of tx cents a
quart to this milk, We have a total
valuation of 81, $50, 900 for the product
Of the COW sold and consumed in the
form of milk.
Retail milk men report that about
10 per cent of their sales are in the
form of sweet cream. Probably an
equal or larger amount of sweet
cream is sold by sweet cream ship
pers. The value of sweet cream there
fore may be placed at approximately
81, 600, 900 and would represent about
5000, 600 quarts of milk or about two
and one-half per cent of the total.
Condensed milk would probably
represent about an equal amount of
utilization Of the total milk produced,
and a market value of about So, 600,
900.
CHEESE AND BUTTER.
The 1911 production of cheese is
probably in the neighborhood of s.,
600, 900 pounds. Tillamook county is
credited with the production of 3, 500, :
900 pounds and the other cheese pro-
ducing sections should bring the total
to about 5, 600, 900 pounds. This would
require about $4,000, 900 quarts of
mix or about per cent of the total.
This cheese has cost the consumer an
average OF not less than 20 cents a
pound, or 81, 900, 600.
According to the foregoing COM
putation about 72 per cent of the
milk produced in the state may be
considered as having been used for
buttermaking purposs. If we assume
that this milk contained an average
of 40 per cent of butterfat, there
could have been made from this fat
about $4,000, 900 pounds of butter,

The Luther Burbank Society.

The man who invents new stitch
for a sewing machine is entitled to
a monopoly of the profits that can
be made out of his invention. The
patent laws of all countries protect
him to the exclusion of all others.
But the creator of a new plant
gets no protection from any country.
If Luther Burbank had devoted
his inventive genius toward the per-
lection of new machinery, as his
early youth gave evidence that he
might, he could be worth millions
from his legally protected royalties.
But, having chosen to become an
inventor of new forms of plant life,
he gets no permanent profit, no pro-
tection-is entitled, by law, to none.
His Burbank potato, which the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture authorities have said is adding
annually seventeen and half mil
lion dollars to the farm incomes of
America, alone, brought Luther Bur-
bank, its creator, only $175.
Other creations, through their
sale to nurserymen and seedsmen,
have enabled him to enjoy a COM
Portable living, but some of the most
important of his creations, more i'm
portant from money standpoint
than the Burbank potato, have
brought, and will bring, him moth
ing.
Luther Burbanks mind is not a
commercial mind.
No man could put his hours, his
enthusiasm and his almost infinite
patience into any work which pro-
duced only money.
Now with more than forty years OF
daily experiment behind him, Luther
Burbank has retired from all busi-
ness, retaining only his experimental
grounds, and has freed himself from
all cares in order that he may devote
himself to giving the whole result OF
his life work to the world.
Through the aid of the Luther
Burbank Society, an organization OF
some of Americas foremost men and
women, chartered by the state OF
California for this single purpose, the
Burbank methods and discoveries
will be disseminated to a world
which has anxiously awaited and
needed them.
