Dairying In Malheur
County, a Great Success
Provides First Class Market For All Alfalfa and Corn
Raised here. Nyssa Factory Has Large Output
For Year of 1914.

these figures can and will be increased
as our herds are bred up for greater
milk production.
The Alfalfa Cheddor Cheese Com
pany began operation In February,
1918. The first days supply Of milk
was 113 pounds. At that time few
cows we're in our community but the
fact that the industry guaranteed a
permanent market for dairy products
encouraged people to invest in dairy
herds until by May of 1914 the factory
was getting 1900 pounds of milk per
day. Today we have about five hun
dred cows in our territory and in
another year this number will be
greatly increased as II will in each
succeeding year.
200, 1000 Pounds Of Cheese
The output OF our factory for 1914
will appropriate 100000 pounds of
cheese which represents 100000
foreign money brought into our terri
tory.
Malheur County Is Dairy Country
II is a dairy country because every
condition is favorable to the industry.
Our climate is ideal. We have no
severe winters. A bad storm Is almost
as rare as n snow In June. We have no
sudden severe changes In temperature
to which a good dairy COW is very
sensitive. Our summers are ideal.
while II gets hot, cattle are not
tortured by the heat because Il is al
ways cool In the shade and this can be
easily provided.
Is Tons Per Acre
Our soil and climate will produce
more dairy feed per acre than any
find out. II is the home OF alfalfa
which produces from five TO seven
tons per acre. We have demonstrated
II TO be n country where corn can be
produced abundantly. For ensilage
purposes n yield OF 10 TO 20 tons per
acre can be easily produced at cost
that IN normal indeed. These two feeds
are the best known for dairy purposes
and Malheur county can beat the
world In their produ tion.
Nor are we entirely dependent upon
these. Blue grass does remarkably
we'll here where we have an abundance
Of water the year around and some
results have been secured.
As many as slX cows have been pastur-
ed from April till october on single
acre o. blue grass with no other feed.
We believe our locality will produce
more dairy feed per acre than any
other section OF the great northwest
Climate and Market
Malheur not only has the climate |
and feed but a market as well. The
demand for dairy products are con-
'tantly on the increase. There seems |
@ be no possibility OF ever over stock
ng the market In our factory We
ire always behind with our orders. II |
,ur output were trehlel we would still |
% unable 10 supply the demand for
,ur product. Any dairyman locating |
within our territory Is guaranteed a |
and permanent market for |
his product. The opportunity for en-
ering the dairy business In the best |
LARRY country in the world is yours. II |
'ou are interested In the business We |
will be glad to render you any assist
Ince possible and give you any infor-
nation that we can. We can put you |
n touch with live proposition In
he best country you ever saw.
The Ontario Argus. (Ontario, Or.) 1???-1947, 1914-12-10

The object of this article is not to
| exploit an individual enterprise but to
give some of the possibilities of a
great industry In our county. BY CIV
ing a brief history OF our enterprise
we hope to bring out in concrete
way the possibilities OF the dairy busi-
ness in Malheur county.
A Home Builder
The dairy business Is recognized
everywhere as a home building in
dustry. Its history is a record Of
prosperity wherever II has been con-
sistently followed up. II is OF inestim-
able value to any community fortunate
enough to be surrounded by favorable
conditions, but Of greater value still to
the individual who engages In this
thriving and lucrative enterprise.
The advantages to community OF
a factory OF any kind engaged in the
manufacture OF dairy products can
scarcely be over estimated. They are
so evident they need not be pointed
out. We believe however. a statement
OF the results secured by our factory
the past year would be OF interest to
anyone engaged in the dairy business.
Securing Milk
Our method OF securing the milk Is
TO buy II at the farm. We provide
means OF transportation for the milk
TO tho factory and deliver the whey
back to the patron free OF charge. All
the dairyman has to do is to place
the mill In some convenient place for
our haulers TO get II.
Our factory is run on a cooperative
basis securing for the producer all
these Is In the way OF price for his
product.
Good Prices Paid
Last winter when the larger cream
cries we're paying 80 cents per pound
for butter fat delivered at their sta
tions we paid the same price for Il nj
the farm. This summer when they
paid 20 and II cents delivered we paid
"a cents and took II nj the farm. The
producer not only received n premium
OF six TO seven cents per pound for his
OF that hard task OF separating his
milk fnd hauling his cream 20 mar
ket.
We were able 10 do this because the
business was IN the producers own
hands. being run 10 furnish market
for their product and not profit for
the manufacturer. The advantages OF !
any we'll managed enterprise OF this |
kind can easily be- seen by the stats |
ties they can furnish.
To our own vicinity the factory has |
meant much TO the farmers. Before /
the advent OF dairy stock the alfalfa |
hay which we produce In such abund-
nnce was selling at $3.50 TO $500 per
ton and not finding a ready market
lt that. With the dairy industry camo /
more diversified methods OF farming,
more stock OF various kin Is on the
farms and better market for our
farm products,
Alfalfa $500
Our records show that every ton OF
hay fed 10 cows furnishing milk TO

come a reality. The legislature of Ne
vada, at the last session, passed bill
redistricting the state; but an i'm
portant line was left out of the en-
crossed bill sent over to Gov. Oddie
and which was not discovered until
after it had been signed by his ex-
cellency. The legislature intended
that all the districts in the state
should have one district judge-ex-
cept the second-which should have
two, By the ommission of the line
referred to the bill as signed by the
governor and which then became a
law, made II read that each district
should have two district judges and
the secretary of state recently certi-
lied down to the county clerks that
they should have notices of election
published calling for the election of
the two judges.
Meanwhile, the matter was called
before the supreme court and that
body rendered a decision last Tues
day, upholding the contention of the
petitioner. In other words, the su-
preme court construed the law as the
| legislature intended and hence the
Tenth district has been created and
