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.

From where I s it...
Jo e Marsh
Shades of Tom Sawyer!
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.
