That () and C (Oregon and California) tim ber money, coming into the various counties around the state continue to amaze us. In Curry County $313,576 in O & C money will wind up in the county treasury. It’s wonderful. It’s better than Christinas. Think of how many counties back in the middle west or east would feel to have ?3,o(X) tossed at them, not to say anything about $300,000. We can safely estimate Douglas county, with over Sl,ooo,ooo of O and C money, as lieing one of the wealthiest counties in die entire nation. And per pop ulation, Curry county itself isn’t doing too badly. Per capita, that is more than $30 for every man, woman and child in the countv. Of course’ it isn’t all gravy. That land, and a good deal more federal land, or state land doesn’t have taxes assessed against it either. The private land in Curry County is very limited, despite a length of near ly too miles.

Hack Will is had just stopped the tractor so’s he could cool off at the pump, when a young insur ance salesman came up the drive. Hack was tired of plowing, and needed insurance on his new barn. B ut he also needed to get th a t w inter rye in fa st. The salesm an, an eager kid, noticed hesitation. “I come from a farm ,” he said. “ Why don’t you look a t these booklets—get all the dope—and I ’ll take th a t plow a couple of rounds for you.” Young fellow’ laid off a p re tty stra ig h t furrow , too. It was al most dark before H ack—sittin g in the shade was able to decide ju s t w hat kind of policy to get. From where I sit, to be a good salesman —or a gwod citizen —it always helps to “put yourself in the other man’s place.” He may- have a different sort of job writh different problems . . . he may pre fer to close a deal over, say, a friendly glass of beer while you might prefer something else. But both of you can co-operate if you nuke il a “policy” to try.
