SHOULD DELIVER
SWEET CREAM

The following article taken from the
Dairy Record, published in the interest
of the dairy industry, should be carefully
read by every farmer who is a creamery
patron. 1t will help him materially i'll
his business, and gives good reasons
why:
Every farmer patronizing a cO-opera-
tive creamery has ard should feel he has
a duty to perform toward helping to run
a cooperative creamery. In mosticases
all the responsibility is left to the mana
ger and butter maker as soon as they
have accepted their positions, which is
entirely wrong. Every farmer should
take a lively interest in securing patron
age and if in their vicinity all are pat
ronizing the creamery, they should see
that not one of them are sending in a
poor grade of cream.
Milford chronicle., 1913-10-03

Here is point that is just as impor-
tant as patronage. Without good sweet,
clean cream no buttermaker can make
good butter, and when a creamery conf
pany hires a buttermaker they expect
him to make a lirst-class grade of butter.
Now, how can this be done with poor
grade of cream Good, sweet cream
makes good, sweet butter, and good i,
sweet butter brings a high price, and un-
less you get a good price for your butter,
how can you pay as much for buttertat
as your neghboring creamery? Unless
you do pay as much as others, people
get dissatisfied and leave the creamery
when no one is to blame but themselvee.
Ten gallons of poorly kept cream will
often flavor two hundred gallons of good
cream and the butter made from that
cream will not bring top notch price on
the market
1t is not necessary TO call on the dairy
and food department to come into the
community and compel the people to do
something for their own interest. Can
not the people themselves see, without
the aid of anyone whether they are work
ing for or against their own interest
Every time a farmer sends a can of poor
cream TO the creamery, lie IS inluring
the price paid for butterfat at the end OF
the month, and that same farmer is the
first to make a ''holler' when other
creameries pay more for butterfat.
There is no other organization in the
world that would be as strong as an or
ganizatiou of farmers il they all pull to-
gether, and there is no other organiza-
ton as easily influenced as the farmers
when some large centralized company
will send one man into the community
and make them believe that they are
losing money by patroniAng co-opera-
tive creamery, and in many cases the
people turn their backs on their own
local creamery that they have spent time
and money to build up and lett 90 down.
What is the result
The centralizers will have things their
own way, and the farmers will see their
sad mistake
Now, let us put our shoulders to the
great wheel of dairying; patronize our
own local creamery and do it with good,
sweet cream, and there will be no ques-
ticu but what you will receive Just as
much for your butterfat as any of your
neighboring creameries. Wherever you
find success in dairying you will find sue
cessful farming and that means money
in the farmers pocket, and that is what
most of us are looking for. And the
more successful business the creamery
does, the more money for the patrons
and all concerned.

THE ADVENTURE OF THE LOST BABY


L The very first line of this delightful skit
by Carolyn Wells will start you to chuckling.
and you will laugh to the very end of it. At
the start she introduces the members of the
International Society of Infa1lible Detectives,
and you can see Sherlock Holmes Arsene
Lupin, the Thinking Machine, Lecocq Vidocq,
and the rest just plain anything.
There are never so many more of thern-and
perhaps you can imagine what might happen
when the whole bunch tackles mysterious
case, each working according to his well
known method 1t is gorgeous travesty, one
of those in which the temptation is strong to
tell you all about it in advance. because it
comes under the head of jokes that are too good
to keep.
THERE is another story in our next ISSUE
one of Michael Whites stories of India,
in which the hero is an American. 1t is lively
adventure story-with love interest in the
background, of course-called THE HORNS
OF THE SHOOSHOK. There is a remark
able fight in it.

from the mysterious stranger; who becomes
commonplace when his identity is revealed,
but even more interesting,-only to give it to

But it is plain that the end is in sight, al
though there are many things that must be
cleared up.

DIVIDENDS OF

FEW NIGHTS WITH GRANDPAP
MORELAND. Stories that are filled

~ MORELAND. Stories that are filled
with the milk of human kindness always
have place waiting for them in our SUNDAY
MAGAZINE. Such tales. when the sentiment is
genuine. must always be good Stories even if
they have not strong plots We are very glad
to publish the series by Hapsburg Liebe that
he calls FEW NIGHTS WITH GRANDPAP
MORELAND. because they are illuminated
by the spirit of kindliness
THE FIDDLING GOVERNOR. the first
of the SERIES will appear next week. The store
keeper introduces the old 1.-The best
loved man in Happy Valley" and you know
at once you going to have fine time in
knowing him. You will at once recognize the
hero of the tale as Bob Taylor who was Gov
ernor of Tennessee, and died in Washington as
Senator from that State.
Maybe it isn't true story, for no claims are
made for it whatever; but you will feel that it
could have been true. 1t makes clear how such
Governor would be worshiped by his people.
He had great commonsense; but his finest asset
was his kindness. 1t is the strangest thing,
when proofs are so common that nothing in
this world pays such big dividends simple
kindliness that more people do not profit by it.
Maybe it is because it takes wisdom to be
kind. because good-natured yielding is some
times anything but kind The element of JUS
tice comes in as well. When kindness is
guided by wisdom it pays better in money and
in human satisfaction than anything else. And
this story about Fiddling Bob Taylor proves it
in way that will interest you profoundly.

SCHOOL NOTES.
By s. E. Notson, supt.

On the 3rd inst. | visited the
school in district No. 80. This is
a small school, and is under the
direction of Miss Edna McNabb.
The pupils seemed to be very dill
gent and interested in their work.
The outbuiIding has been repair
ed and put into good condition.
A new cistern has been construc-
ted, and the water supply is bet
tered thereby.
In passing, | noticed that a
stable had been built in the school
yard in district No. 80, for the
use Of those who ride to school.
| also observed that District No.
So has a supply of wood on hand
for the coming winter. District
No. 38 has built substantial
fence around the school yard and
a new barn has also been erected.
In District No. 18, the outbuild-
ings have been repaired and a
new fence built around the prem
ises.
Let US again urge the import
ance of the annual m eetin G.
Every voter should feel the re-
sponsibility resting upon him.
At the meeting, the condition,
of the schoolhouse and the sur
roundings should be noted. Then
plans should be laid to have
everything in good shape for the
opening of school next fall.
Pupils or parents desiring pre-
MUM lists of the chiIdren's con-
tests at the State Fair may
secure them at my Office or by
writing. There is now an ample
supply on hand.

completely out. He says the wa

The enterprise of the typical
agricultural student who. con-
trary to report, does return to the
home farm, is indicated by L. L..
Mcbride of Eddyville, who grad
yates from the Oregon Agricult-
ural College this June.
He has rented his fathers
ranch of 700 acres, and will have
entire charge of some 300 head
of Jerseys, 200 or 300 head of
sheep and COATES, several hun
dred chickens, a large herd of
swine, and some horses.
His energy and ability are al
ready proven by his high class
standings and his college activi-
ties. He was president of the
junior class last year, and this
year recorder for the seniors.
He has been active in the Agri-
cultural Club and the Athenaeum
Literary Society, having served
on the debating team last year.
In athletics he was a "star, F"

School Sanitation.
Heppner, Oregon,

Heppner, Oregon,
June 7, 1913.
To the School Officers of Morrow
County:
The future welfare of the ris-
ing generation is largely in your
hands. That the intellectual and
moral outcome Of school work
and environment depends to a
great extent upon the physical
condition of the child is a we'll
established fact.
Is your school house properly
heated and ventilated? Or is it
unevenly heated by stoves, and
ventilated by opening doors and
windows, or by cracks, thus
causing dangerous draughts? All
this can be corrected by using
the Smith Heating and Ventilat-
ing System.
Think of it! An absolutely
even temperature throughout the
whole room! $4,000 to $4,000
cubic feet Of air removed per
hour! A SAVING IN FUEL!
For schools of more than one
room, a Smith Furnace in each
room is BETTER and CHEAPER
than a furnace in basement.
Then there is the water supply.
You cannot afford to be without
a asanitary drinking fountain. In
vestigate the Smith Bubbler
Fountain.
Get supply Of sweeping COM
pound and keep down the dust.
Investigate these things. Do
not jeopardize the health of the
children-your children or those
Of your neighbor.
Yours for progress.
