PRODUCERS HIT BY DROP
IN EGG PRICE
Kgg prices here have dropped to 25
rents, which means a largely decreased
income to the owners of the many
thousands of chickens of this section.
The reduced price thus early in the
season is sail! by those familiar with
the busmens to be due iu purt to the
mild winter which has oucourugcd
heuvy laying and to the fact that buy
ers of eggs are taking precautionary
measures against being caught on a
quick drop 111 the market as they were

OLD PAVING ON NINTH

ignite u saving to the city will be
effected by the nature of the tri party

to the copy received by the citj

taperiug to the sides, on the portions

There were more than three times a*
many births in Cottage Grove during
1921 as there were deaths and this de
spite th«* fact that for the first time
in many year* there were numerous
eases of coutagiou* and infectious
disease*. Of these, 12 eases o f <iiph
theriu were reported and thr«*e cases
o f scarlet fever.
The total number o f births was 121,
68 mules and 52 females.
The total number o f death* was 29,
24 males and 15 females.
During the year before there were
128 birth* and 62 deaths, showing a
decided improvement in the ratio for
tin* past year.
Cottage Grove has the somewhat
doubtful houor o f imviitg the high«*st
tax levy fur 1922 of any city in tho
county, although several others run a
close second. Cottage Grove s levy is
71.1 mills. Creswell is lowest with 47.2
mills. Those levies iiiciud«» tuxes for
every purpose— city, school, county
aud state.
The size o f the levy does not neces
sarily indicate the financial condition
o f the city. Cottage* Grove is each
year reducing its indebtedness mater
laliy, making special city and school
levies for this purpose totaling about
8 ,/ii milks. The financial condition of
both city ami school district is excel
lent and taxpayers look forward to the
time when levies may be reduced be
cause o f greatly reduced indebtedness.
