Plate Glass Windows Shattered and
Business Signs Blown Away

San Francisco. limb and prop
erty paid tribute here Sunday nigh
to a storm said by the weather burea,
officials to be the severest that has
visited San Francisco for % years
Seventy-five miles an hour was the
velocity OF the wind at o'clock off
Point Reyes, and so miles an hour of
Point Lobos, one OF the portals Of the
Golden Gate.
Henry Chilson. OF Los Angeles, was
killed here by the storm. Chilson and
his wife came here to visit the Pan

have returned to Los Angeles. He
was knocked down by q falling adver-
tising sign, suffered a broken spine
and fractured skull and died half an
hour later.
Numerous injuries were reported
from flying signs and other debris
blown loose by the bowling southerly
gale.
The wind was especially severe on
plate-glass windows, more than 100 OF
which were reported as having been
blown in. One window, on the 18th
story Of an office building, was blown
from its frame and stuck like jack.
knife In a door at the opposite side OF
the room.
The storm kicked up a heavy sea
on San Francisco bay and ferry traf-
fic was maintained with difficulty. In
several cases whole seas swept the
lower decks Of the ferryboats, and
many of the passengers became sea-
sick and others engaged themselves in
prayer.
Several coasters that tried to put
to sea turned back after getting q
taste Of the winds velocity outside
the heads.
The property loss caused by the
storm included the destruction of an
untenanted two-story frame apart
ment house, which collapsed under the
pressure Of the wind. There were no
casualties.

NEW COOPERATIVE CREAMERY
Farmers and State College to Cooper
ate In Manufacture Of Products.

Corvallis, Or.-For the purpose oi
manufacturing and marketing butter
cheese, ice cream and other dairy pro
ducts, the Oregon State College and
q number Of dairymen and farmers
nearby have organized q cooperative
creamery. Another purpose Of the CO
operative plan is to secure a supply
of milk and cream to students OF
dairying in sufficient quantities that
they may be able to operate the col
lege creamery on q commercial basis.
Although the college has a few herds
OF high producing dairy cows II has
not enough cows to provide milk in
quantities sufficient to supply a large
and successful commercial creamery,
and 1t believes that only in this way
can adequate training be given stu
dents OF commercial dairying.
Dairymen that sign up as members
OF the cooperative association agree
to supply milk from a stated number
of cows and to exercise such care in
management of cows and handling of
milk and cream as to comply with the
Oregon laws governing the operation
Of commercial dairies.
The college agrees to receive the
milk and cream, test and grade them.
and make them into dairy products
for sale. From gross receipts of the
sale will be deducted all operating ex-
penses. including depreciation and up
keep of dairy machinery. 1t will then
divide the net profits among the dairy
men in the proportion of amount and
grade Of butterfat provided by each,
making monthly payments. 1t will
also keep its books open for inspec-
tion during office hours and send COM
plete monthly statements with pay
ments.

Market Oats in East.

There was fair prospect for a time
that Pacific Coast oats, as well al
wheat, might be marketed in the East.
It was this possibility that caused the
recent firmness in local markets, but
with the weakening of Eastern prices,
most of the gain was lost here. Prices,
however, are close to the point that
would make such shipments possible,
and with a little advance in the East
sales of the best Northwestern oats
may be made .for.shipment there.
