Dairy stock search for top cows by Dean and Finley
Fay F. Dean manager of the Columbia Creamery Co and George E. Finley spent the past week in western Oregon seeking desirable dairy cows to bring to the valley. A telegram from Dean indicates limited success and a tour of middle western states may follow to secure good stock at reasonable prices. The Northwest dairy boom makes quality cows scarcer and pricier as farmers weed out second rate animals. Painters and plasterers finished at the creamery and machinery installation proceeds as a car from Seattle arrives.
