Most of the dairy produce came from the Willamette Val-
ley, and the least from eastern Oregon and some of the coast
counties. Multnomah took the lead, having an output of $346,-
781, which was fifty per cent more than that of any other
county. Marion, Washington, and Lane each had an output
valued at more than $200,000; Linn, Coos, Umatilla, Tilla-
mook, and Union, over $150,000 each; Yamhill, Douglas, and
Clackamas, over $100,000 each ; Wasco, Grant, Jackson, Polk,
Morrow, and Curry, over $50,000 each. Counties in the Wil-
lamette Valley were, for the most part, the greatest producers.
Some coast counties ranked high ; others, low. Coos was
sixth ; Tillamook, eighth ; Curry, eighteenth ; Lincoln, twenty-
fourth ; Clatsop, thirty-third. In northeastern Oregon, Uma-
tilla was seventh ; Union, ninth ; Wallowa, twenty-first ; Baker,
twenty-fifth. Douglas was eleventh ; Jackson, fifteenth ; Jose-
