Salem — Jackson county has sprung
to second place among th* eonntie* of
Oregon in taxable weakh.
Marion
county, which has for many years occu
pied second place, has dropped to fifth
place, and perhaps tower. Not *11 tbe
asaeeement returns have been received
yet, but it is already appaient that at
least three counties have Hepped above
Marion in assessed valuation.
Multnomah county, of course, is etill
first, her assessment for 1906 not yet
being definitely known. Jackeon will
come second with a valuation of over
312,000,000
Washington probably
third with $10,660,000, Umatilla prob
ably fourth with $10.105,000, and Ma
rion probably fifth with $9.824,000.
There are a number pf wealthy counties
y*t to report, among them l*eing Lane,
Linn and Clackamaa, any of which may
surpass Marion and put that county
still further down the list.
Jackson county’s assessment this year
shows an increase of about 200 per
cent for last year tbe assesemeot was
only $4,650,000.

For thi* privilege the government col

and from 20 to 85 cents of each head of

A vast amount of work is involved in
selecting these grazing lands. Not on
