Mr.. Schrock, giving the result of an
investigation he had made of the
League while in Multnomah County.
Spice was added to the discussion sof
the League through the medium of a
representative Of. the Mutual Cream.

1t had been intended that consider
able time be given to Farm Bureau
plans for the year, but with the inter-
est so keen in the dairying and the
mohair and wool work, only three
major projects were put on the Farm
Bureau program Tor 1921. These were
first, organization of the Oregon Dairy
mems League; second, organization of
branch of the Western Oregon Mo-
hair and Wool. Growers Cooperative
Association; and third, organizing a
Farm Bureau community and planning
a program of work in each community
of the county desiring the same.
The election of the Farm Bureau
officers for the year was postponed
until June, by which time it is expect
ed that the communities will be or
ganized, and with the roads good, a
large attendance may be expected at
the annual meeting of the Farm
Bureau to be held at that time.
Saturday afternoon was devoted to
consideration Of the tax situation,
the table found elsewhere having been
prepared by w. E. Ball. County Com
missioner Dunn appeared on behalf Of
the court and discussed the road situa-
ton. A delegation from Newport ap-

transportation was brought up, fol-

president of the Toledo Chamber of
Commerce.; l.. C. Smith, George r.
