OLIVER, LA GRANDE, OREGON Room SI Soimer Building ! SHEEP il DIP I SULPHER- X Kentucky Black Leaf X and other dipping mater- ials in WHOLESALE QUANTITIES Write for prices THE PENDLETON DRUG CO. Pendleton, Oregon -r i BAKER CITY Mm PROBLEM Many communities have' solved the tai question very satisfactorily,- especially so far a city property is concerned. And the solution is interesting and many prove beneficial to Baker. Th idea is to offer an inducement for people to improve their property and to accomplish this un improved property i taxed ry high whil Improved property is taxed pn ' th tarn basis for th land but th improve ments taxed much lower. For instance: A man owns a city lot worth $10,000. This lot I taxed at its cah vaiv. $10,000. If th man im prove t' bt putting on building worth $40,000. the improvement are taxed at one-fourth tKeir value or 1 10.000. Thi total a $20,000 assessment for' th ground and building but th real value is $30,000 which makes a tax of less than one-half. While for the unimproved property the owner pays a tax on $10, 000 and get no returns. in cities where this plan has been put in operation it has worked very satisfac tory inducing many property owners to im prove their vacant lots. That it would do a great for Baker is self-evident Tnere ar many people in Baker who owd unimproved property which would be very valuable if decent building were erected but they will not erect the build ingt and they will not ell except for an enormou price. Thi hinder th growth ana development of the city and th plan yiupusea wouia eiwer make these pro perty owner put on improvement or compel them to tell at a normal price to men who would improve th lot. l ne vacant lot miser is a detriment to any community. Vacant lot ar of no earthly good when held merely for specu- iouuii ana i a seinng price that it pro hibitive. The adjoining property owners erect buildings and increase th value of the lot belonging to th miter. The miter immediately raises his price but ha done nothing whatever to add to this in crease which he put on when building go up near hi vacant lot. If those va cant lot were taxed good and heavy the miser would either let go or put on im provement. And it would mak a wonderful difference In the appearance of the city within a few year.
